RT-AX1800S is a 2x2 dual-band WiFi router that provides 80MHz bandwidth and 1024-QAM for dramatically faster wireless connections, greater coverage and improved battery life for connected devices, providing a significantly better networking experience for users. Disclaimer: Actual data throughput and WiFi coverage will vary from network conditions and environmental factors, including the volume of network traffic, building material and construction, and network overhead, result in lower actual data throughput and wireless coverage.

Review: Solid, Reliable WiFi 6 Router with a Clean Interface - This is a really nice router, especially at this price point. Setup was straightforward, and the user interface is clean and easy to navigate — whether you're adjusting basic settings or diving into more advanced options. So far, it’s been rock-solid in terms of reliability. Good range, stable connections, and noticeably faster performance compared to my older WiFi 5 router. I haven’t had to reboot or troubleshoot once since installing it. If you're looking for an affordable WiFi 6 upgrade that just works, this is a great choice.
Review: Surprisingly simple and recommended - As a boomer, I know little to nothing about setting up any tech devices however, downloading the app provided by ASUS router and following the instructions, I was connected to WIFI with ease. A few weeks using this router, no issues.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ When your wifi needs a boost.
*by H***4 on January 20, 2026*

My son made it this is apartment at school. his apartment is around 1000 ft.², two bedroom, the Wi-Fi service provided by the apartment complex was not adequate for him and his roommate. He was struggling with getting the Wi-Fi to work for his classes. This was recommended and it increased the coverage in his entire apartment as well as the capacity. It was compatible with his Internet service. It was easy to install and made a huge difference. I would recommend this to anyone looking for better service.
