ASUS - RT-BE92U

this router has constasnt connection issues for wan and wireless, you need a reboot everyday. i got one and so far is trash.

I just bought one and used it for two days. It's a 2025 and hardware 1.0 version. It took me an hour phone call with the Support to resolve WAN connection issue to be able to start to use it from the get-go. I have Xfinity. For some reason, 2 out 3 times, the WAN light is red after connecting the cable modem to 10G WAN port. I don't have this issue with my old Google WIFI router. So the Support asked me to unplug cable model for 2 minutes and plug it back on and then log onto Web UI and go through "Quick Internet Setup" to detect connection. After this, WAN issue was resolved. I was able to use it. I updated the firmware to the latest version: 3.0.0.6.102\_37548. Over the last two days, it suddenly rebooted four times. The longest hours it's running so far is 18 hours. I am still researching this rebooting issue. It looks like might be a firmware bug somewhere as I couldn't see anything from system log that would explain the reboots. Whenever it rebooted, I touched the router and it wasn't overheating. I can totally understand why the reviews are so mixed. I will probably have to keep it as it's the only WIFI7 router at $200-$300 that supports 2.4G/5G/6G, VPN, 10G WAN port, 4x2.5G LAN ports, and 5G Mobile tethering...

FYI - It's been running for more than 5 days now without restarting. I am going to keep it.

I use Asus aimesh. Using 2 x rt-be92u. My pov and opinion. Very good system overall. Doesn't like wifi/ ip cameras on mesh and doesn't like smart home products eg bulbs or speakers. I have had to create a separate IoT network for the cameras, bulbs etc as all on 2.4G. Then turn off the 2.4ghz radio on the node forcing everything to main router so doesn't disconnect from WiFi. I have one camera which buffers a bit as quite far from main router.

I had x20 3 pack too. I actually thought they were good. It was the subscription to use parental controls that made me ditch them. I went a bit OTT. BOUGHT Asus Rt-be92u x 2. One as router and other as node. Great kit

I went rt-be92u x 2 from Asus. It is WiFi 7 however not all devices support it, but you can turn off WiFi 7 mode in app. Now I pay for 950 down (UK) and at node using Samsung Tab S10 Ultra showing WiFi 6E on tablet I'm getting 647 down. Laptop ethernet to node get 812 down. Ping is around 9 on both. You want the best I've heard the newest Orbi devices are supposed to be the dogs dangly bits. I used TP Link X50 mesh before which again is good system. Only reason I ditched it was subscription for parental controls.

I just received my new BE 92U yesterday and I’ve been troubleshooting the AI mesh issue where my previous AI mesh routers are seen by the new router but are unable to create an AI mesh network. I have done a hard factory reset on all my routers multiple times I’ve been on with tech-support, which is useless nowadays and still nothing right now. I’m just using the one router the RT-BE92U to provide Wi-Fi to my family, but it’s spotty if anyone out there has a good guide on how I can get my AI mesh up and running I’d greatly appreciate it

I recently got 2 Asus RT-BE92U BE9700 https://amzn.eu/d/elQvYpd and set up in AI mesh using its 10gb network port for wired backhaul. It was a big upgrade from my previous TP Link deco mesh system and I love the asus wrt software. Pretty happy with the purchase so far

People are disappointed with wifi 7 are disappointed because TP link rushed out devices that were not ready for market, and have a high hardware failure rate. All the other manufacturers rushed to compete, and reliability and features are lacking. I tried a wifi router from TP Link, Netgear, and Asus. They were all garbage in one way another. The TP Link (BE19000) was great until it just died, couldn't hold a signal after 2 months. The Netgear(RS600 and rest of RS line) forces you into a paid DNS service if you want to run a VPN on it, the Asus RT-BE92U has a horrendous UI and firmware that crashed it daily as well as micro connection drops regularly.

I'm holding you accountable—if I upgrade to firmware 37500 and still experience drops, you’re on the hook! 😉 I own three of these routers, originally running the 36xxx firmware, and I can confidently say: this is hands down the worst router I’ve ever owned. It didn’t matter what settings I changed, how many hard resets I did—at some point, everything would lose connectivity. No rhyme, no reason, just a 100% guarantee that every single device would eventually drop. The best part? After going in circles with ASUS support and getting absolutely nowhere, my return window closed. So now, these bad boys are serving as glorified paperweights. If this firmware actually fixes the issues, I’ll be thrilled—but if not, I’ll stick with my EEROs, which, despite their lack of advanced config options, are the best damn Wi-Fi devices I’ve ever used.

Appreciate the detailed reply! Just to clarify, I'm now on **firmware 3.0.0.6.102\_37506** and did the full **WPS hard reset on all three BE92Us** after updating. Everything was set up from scratch — no imported settings. Here’s what happens **every time**, across three firmware versions and full resets: * **Day 1**: Everything runs great — fast, stable, all devices connected, and cameras working. * **By Day 2 or 3**: * Random **reboots** * **Devices drop offline**, wired and wireless * **Security cameras completely stop working** and **never come back**, even with reboots * **Web UI becomes unreachable**, and I have to **physically unplug** everything I’ve also rotated which router is primary, swapped nodes, and rebuilt AiMesh — same result. Here’s everything I’ve **disabled or adjusted** trying to fix it: * Airtime Fairness * QoS * Traffic Analyzer * Universal & Explicit Beamforming * MU-MIMO * IPv6 * DFS channels (avoided) * SPI Firewall (tested on/off) * AiProtection * Game Boost & related * WiFi Radar/Auto Optimization * USB services * **Manually optimized WiFi channels based on analyzer, and also tested Auto** Even with **2.5 GbE wired backhaul**, the system fails within 48 hours. Cameras never recover past Day 1. So while **37506 is more stable than previous versions**, **it’s still unusable for me**. I’ve had to unplug everything and go back to EEROs, which just work. If ASUS drops a real fix in future firmware, I’ll give it a try. But for now, **it’s still a no-go**. Appreciate you trying to help though!

You need to get the latest beta firmware to solve these 2. However, the Wi-Fi would still be disconnected occasionally even using beta firmware.

This is a terrible router. Mine drops signal several times a day. Sometimes multiple times an hour. In every room in the house. Even right next door. Terrible product. Never had this issue with the stock cable company router.

ASUS, got better UI on the app as well. I used to have Netgear
