What customers say
The ASUS RT-BE55 is highly regarded for its quality and future proofing, leveraging the new WiFi 7 standard. Users value the reliable performance and seamless integration within the familiar, robust ASUS ecosystem, including easy setup and strong security features. While the hardware is excellent, the immediate value is tempered because current client devices limit the full speed potential of WiFi 7. This means the performance leap over top tier WiFi 6E is often small right now. Consequently, this router is best positioned for early adopters and those planning long term network upgrades rather than the average consumer seeking immediate, cost effective speed gains.
