Source: GalaxusThe Asus GT-AX11000 (390 euros) is also a typical gaming router, with the WLAN section and antenna design corresponding to the TP-Link next door. The same applies to the firmware, which is trimmed for gaming functions such as quality of service, but also offers a few goodies for normal users such as the "AI Protection" antivirus service, an "AI Mesh" function as well as NAS and even printer support...
High data rates, good network connectivity and practical functions give the Asus, together with TP-Link, the victory.
