Looks great. Fast when it works. Worked for about 3 weeks with no problems on spark. But now disconnects and reconnects repeatedly every day. After many resets and checks have finally given up and will buy something else. Looks great. Fast when it works. Worked for about 3 weeks with no problems on spark.

I needed a better router because the default one that came from the internet provider was losing packets for some devices connected by ethernet.
This one fixed the problem and also the wifi speed has improved (now I can watch 4k streams without interruptions).

I've got two problems when I was setting it up:
- My provider (contact energy) wasn't in the list of LAN -> IPTV-> Select ISP profile. I had to call ISP and ask what setting I should use. It was the only setting I had to change to make it working with my provider.
- After that the internet didn't work on most of my devices (worked only on PC for some reason). I had to do factory r...view more I needed a better router because the default one that came from the internet provider was losing packets for some devices connected by ethernet.

Can't give it 5 stars but it does the job for me.

Pros include:
Wifi 6
Game mode
Supposedly high bandwidth
Cons include:
Poor range
3 cores isnt enough most the time
Slower than my previous asus router that costed the same by about 200mbps
Finicky setup process that could have you on the phone to your isp for a hour getting it running Pros include:

I have had this router for the past 2 weeks. My 2.4ghz is working fine but my 5 ghz keeps randomly disconnecting. My 5ghz at times can't even be seen. Any suggestions?

Went from provider issued router - consistently dropping out to this router and wow what a difference this router makes. If you are still using your supplier issued Router this is a great upgrade to go for.

My previous modem router was Asus RT-AC59U from Stuff Fibre, it worked great but decided to change to a new ISP which is 2 Degrees. I decided not to go with 2 Degrees Fritz box and purchase my own modem/router. I was hesitant since configuration might be a problem. I still decided to stick with Asus since I liked the phone app. The TUF-AX3000 has a different(more fancy ) user interface, than the RT-AC59U. Size Dimension is way bigger. I was able to configure the settings of the TUF-AX3000 for Stuff Fibre, it took me some time in finding the settings but once I found it it was easy. I was also able to setup it under 2 Degrees without any...view more My previous modem router was Asus RT-AC59U from Stuff Fibre, it worked great but decided to change to a new ISP which is 2 Degrees.

I was also able to setup it under 2 Degrees without any problem. I just went to https://www.pbtech.co.nz/ASUSISPSettings and went to 2 Degrees BYOD Modem website. So far I am not having any wifi dropouts compared to the RT-AC59U which I get occasional dropouts once in a while. I can make 3 Guest wifi on both 2.4 ghz and 5 ghz which is a great feature for me.

Great product brought so I could set some boundaries over internet use with the kids and it has been awesome takes all the stress out of bedtime Great product brought so I could set some boundaries over internet use with the kids and it has been awesome takes all the stress out of bedtime

Easy to setup and awesome performance Easy to setup and awesome performance

There are so many great features here. Took a bit to get it set up right for Spark (make sure VID/VLAN is set to 10 is key) but otherwise is a great product There are so many great features here.
