ASUS ZenWifi XD4S (AX1800) Dual-Band WiFi 6 Whole Home Mesh System - Black - 3 Pack

Bought this for the girlfriends family as their network connection was dismal and always dropping out. Signal loss would cause the TV to freeze when watching the news...painful.
Only been a few weeks and it's completely revolutionised their home. Great coverage sufficiently reaching all corners of the double story house and also boosting the signal over to the neighbouring cottage on the same property. Older folks can watch Country Calendar, the young ones game and stream Netflix in the cottage, while Dad works in the study.
No speed loss and everyone can work away in their own spaces, restoring peace amongst the tribe. Bought this for the girlfriends family as their network connection was dismal and always dropping out. Signal loss would cause the TV to freeze when watching the news...painful.

It was easy to set up and reliably more than tripled the wifi speed at our student daughter’s workspace. She’s had speeds as low as 7 Mbps and rarely reached 30 Mbps. She’s now routinely over 100 Mbps and has reached 156 Mbps.

I’m using it to augment rather than replace my old wifi network, as I suspect it’s a bit laggy for units closer to our router. No expert though, so this could be my imagination.

Seems okay as a mesh system, but so far we're disappointed because a big reason we bought this one was for the claims of Parental Controls, including the Content Filter stuff demonstrated on the Asus website. If that's your reason then don't bother with this, or at least think carefully. On closer inspection this model comes with AI Protection Classic rather than Pro, which doesn't provide any more advanced features like being able to block out website categories. The most you can do is put your kids' devices into a profile for that child, and either switch off/on the whole internet access for that group, or create a schedule for that to...view more Seems okay as a mesh system, but so far we're disappointed because a big reason we bought this one was for the claims of Parental Controls, including the Content Filter stuff demonstrated on the Asus website.

The most you can do is put your kids' devices into a profile for that child, and either switch off/on the whole internet access for that group, or create a schedule for that to happen at various times of day. It's not even clear why it asks the age of the child when setting up the profile, because that seems to make no difference. Lesson learned, I guess.

DO NOT BUY THESE... they have been nothing but a problem since my purchase in 2021. If you are not tech savy at all, look else where these are horrible and I spend every month or 2 trying to fix something that ASUS has stuffed up. If i could afford to purchase something else i would in heartbeat. DO NOT BUY THESE... they have been nothing but a problem since my purchase in 2021.
