When selecting computer routers, compare wireless generation, aggregate throughput, wired ports, and security/management features. Here is how this product performs:
1.
Wireless Capabilities (Wi-Fi 7; dual-band; Multi-Link ODF) : For a mid-range price this listing shows premium wireless generation (Wi‑Fi 7) and advanced features like MLO, which are noticeably better than typical mid-range dual‑band Wi‑Fi 6 units and more aligned with higher-end models. That said, dual-band rather than tri/quad band is common for travel routers and constrains simultaneous multi-room throughput compared with full premium systems.
2.
Max Aggregate Throughput (3600 Mbps) : 3600 Mbps sits around or slightly above typical mid-range aggregate throughput benchmarks and well below premium multi‑gig totals, so it is strong for a travel-class router. The benchmark notes that advertised aggregate Mbps can be optimistic, but this figure still indicates a capable mid-range real‑world ceiling compared with entry models.
3.
Wired Connectivity (1× LAN; 1 Gbps) : Wired connectivity is basic: a single gigabit LAN and unspecified WAN behavior, which is typical for compact travel routers but weaker than mid-range home routers that offer 4× Gigabit and occasional 2.5Gb uplinks. Buyers wanting multi‑gig wired performance should expect this to be below typical mid-range wired benchmarks.
4.
Security & Management (WPA3; ASUSWRT; guest network) : Security and management are in line with or slightly better than typical mid-range expectations thanks to WPA3 and ASUSWRT plus VPN and guest network options. These software features are meaningful value drivers and fit a mid-range offering from a known brand.
Deal price at $120.99: sits in the mid-range band for routers, slightly above the mid-range median but well below typical premium pricing. It is priced just under its recent 90-day average of about $122.10, which modestly supports value for an established brand.
Overall, this Good Deal fits buyers who want the latest Wi‑Fi 7 wireless performance in a compact travel-oriented router and who value brand polish. It is a sensible choice for users prioritizing wireless speed and features over multi-gig wired ports. Double-check WAN behavior and warranty/return terms if you need advanced wired setups or extended support.
