Yeah, installed this, and it did help some. I switched back to my GT-BE98 Pro and Rt-be96U combo for now to confirm I’m seeing better performance there.Unusually rapid firmware updates for the BQ16 Pro ...

Initial firmware release
Yeah, installed this, and it did help some. I switched back to my GT-BE98 Pro and Rt-be96U combo for now to confirm I’m seeing better performance there.
I was reading through the reviews on Best buy.com and I believe I came across yours. Thanks for the detailed analysis. I think it solidifies my thought that I'll stick to getting just one BQ16 Pro as it would fit nicely where I'm hoping to install it. I am concerned Velcroing the bottom may be a challenge due to venting I see in images. My local Best Buy with these in stock has a sample, but it is glued/bolted down so I am basing that off images from Dong Knows Tech review. (I actually have a cousin with the same name so I feel obliged to use the full name)...Yeah, I’m thinking about trying that combo myself before I return them. I can advise further, but I definitely get better performance with the gt-be98 pro and rt-be96u for now.
Interesting IF ASUS uses 192.168.1 for ZenWiFi vs 192.168.50 for it's other router products, or did you change it to that?New firmware available as of Friday 21st of June. It only available on device, not for download yet.

Thanks for sharing this update! (Still looking to buy one unit unfortunately. Wife would kill me if I bought 3 for sure, and my chances of survival may be iffy even for one)...
I have no idea, sorry.Oh I did have a question which may be worth sharing: I noticed that this model may have a 3 year warranty? (Trying to research on ASUS.com I eventually came across that warranty could be 2-3 years AND might depend on store of purchase)? 3 years would be 50% more than the typical 2. Shrugs....
It does have a 3 year warrantyI have no idea, sorry.
Thank you. If you have an ASUS.com account and register it there it usually shows your warranty end date (FYI)...I have no idea, sorry.
