    ASUS ROG Strix GS-BE18000, slow speeds

    Yeah there is something wrong with this F router..... Im guessing firmware. Because I tried two different routers, updated to latest firmware, and I could only get around 650 mbps down capped on BOTH, regardless if I was using 1 device or 4 devices downloading at the same time. It's too...

    ASUS ROG Strix GS-BE18000, slow speeds

    ASUS ROG Strix GS-BE18000, slow speeds

    It was disabled by default. I tried enabling it. No diffs. This test was also the iphone 17 base model, not the Pro Max. The tester got ~1,100 mbps. Im getting ~600 mbps. Something is clearly off.

    ASUS ROG Strix GS-BE18000, slow speeds

    Hi - I recently purchased the GS-BE18000. Nice little router. Looks sexy. Easy to setup. Has the regular intuitive Asus UI (this is my 6th Asus router). Love all the 2.5G ports on the back (I need these). So far so good. Wifi connection is strong, smooth, constant. Feels very responsive...
