    Considering Upgrading from AC5300 to AXE16000

    ASUS ZenWiFi Pro XT12. These are WiFi 6, not WiFi 6e routers. There is also ET12 which have 6e instead of the 5.1 band 2. ET12s are good for wired backhaul aimesh. Wireless XT12s are better. Google dongknows - he has good write ups on most of the decent Asus routers.

    What ISP & device model is your router? Example, if your with Virgin Media, you can put it into Modem mode. Depends on the modem setup.

    Considering Upgrading from AC5300 to AXE16000

    Owned AX11k and current have AXE16K + 3x XT12s. WiFi 6e is next to useless, really low range same speed as Wifi6. Don't consider 6e for backhaul, tried is and returned the 6e setup > just marketing crap. If your doing wired backhaul then, 6e is good if your very close to the router. For wireless...

    GT-AXE16000 dual WAN failover mode

    I had a similar issue with Sky modem/wifi boxes, Virgin media (not in modem mode) and a few more. I always set the core network to 192.168.4x/5x/6/x7.0/24. Not sure of the rest of your setup, might be easier to change the AXE16k LAN network? My thought process is to get the WAN links working as...

    Does the XT12 still has issues? XT12 vs GT-AX11000

    Previously had the AX11k + 3x XT8s wireless mesh, currrent is AXE16k + 3x XT12s. AX11k most stable router I've had to date. AXE16k has been solid for 3 months now, XT12s in wireless mesh have been absolutely rock solid. I have 1x XT12 using another XT12 as primary uplink so, I know the WiFi is...

    ASUS GT-AXE16000 status?

    AXE16k since Dec 2022 + 3x XT12 wireless AiMesh. Stock firmware - latest. After getting it setup, its been absolutely rock solid. I did have to unlearn somethings. I was use to have scheduled reboot twice a week, this seems to confuse the dual-wan setup > switched off rebooting and its been rock...

    AXE16k Dec 2022. I tried Merlin on it with 3x XT12 in wireless aimesh, did not work, aimesh was super flaky & only running older firmware I got 1x node up. Went back to stock firmware, been absolutely solid since, updated firmware on devices no issues. One thing I use to was restart the router...

    GT-AXE16000 Owner's Thread

    So I disabled AiProtection and the speeds actually dropped. WTF until I kept reading your message. I am running cfosspeed for donkey years. I turned it off and hit full 3.1Gbps down 3.2Gbps up. Then enabled AiProtect and its gone 3.3Gbps down 3.2Gbps up. I'll take that. Router CPU/RAM does not...
