Review: Missing power brick - Can't give full review as this was delivered with a US-style power brick. Maybe it's a grey import? If so, what about warranty? As a general comment re connectivity: I have a BQ16 that had dropout problems while connecting via PPPoE to my fibre provider. This was solved through a combination of disabling IPv6 to the outside world (still enabled internally in our building to allow Home Assistant/thread to work) and by changing WAN/Internet Detection to PPP Echo, PPP Echo Interval to 30 and PPP Echo Max Failures to 5. Update: Mea culpa. I had not found the US to UK adapter in the packaging. Supplier has immediately offered to take back the router with refund hence the change in rating. Correspondence with them easy and timely. Their support merits a 5-star rating.
Review: An Extremely Powerful and Reliable mesh Router which can be used as a stand-alone device. - I bought one of these. I had it placed in a side room at one end of the house where the fiber was installed so I could connect it via ethernet to a streaming device and two printers. Regardless of its out-of-the-way location it easily filled the house with fast reliable wifi. My house is about 1500 square feet. The router looks great - not like an upside down dead spider. None of our 15 devices have ever been dropped from the network. The web-based software is comprehensive and you don't have to pay extra for any security or parental controls since Asus always includes that without a subscription. Yes, it's expensive, but in this case you get what you pay for.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Extremely Powerful and Reliable mesh Router which can be used as a stand-alone device.
*by R***G on 2 June 2026*

### ⭐⭐⭐ Connectivity issues are horrendous, terrible buy
*by T***R on 10 February 2026*

The connectivity issues as mentioned on other reviews and across the web are spot on. I can get past the endless pages of configuration, as I am a big fan of options, but this thing has taken weeks to get close to stable. I have 50+ smart devices and it takes hours to get everything configured. I so much wanted to ignore the horror stories, and now I am paying the price. Have always been impressed with Asus, stuck with their equipment and couldn’t be more disappointed with this. Firmware is clearly buggy, regardless of updates there is just too much wrong. Loss of connection both on internal network and with WAN. You get really excited for all the cutting edge features just to find out many of them don’t work or interfere with stable connectivity so they must be turned off. I have had down connections at least once a day for several weeks, but just enough to keep trying. After reconfiguring multiple times, searching the web for guidance, using AI for suggestions - nothing works and it all comes down to bad firmware and not being ready for the market. It’s gotten worse with time where some days were loosing connectivity every 10-15 minutes and the system logs prove a complete mess. I need stable connectivity for work and home security and this is just not up to par.
