Product Description
ASUS RT-BE86U: Unmatched Wired Capacity and WiFi 7 Speed.
The ASUS RT-BE86U is engineered to be the backbone of the most demanding home networks. By leveraging WiFi 7 (802.11be) technology, it delivers combined dual-band speeds of up to 6800 Mbps. With Multi-Link Operation (MLO) and 4096-QAM, it offers significantly improved throughput and lower latency for 8K streaming, high-intensity gaming, and large-scale data transfers.
The standout feature of the RT-BE86U is its unparalleled wired capacity. It features a dedicated 10Gbps WAN/LAN port and four 2.5Gbps ports, unlocking a 20G combined network capacity—perfect for users with ultra-fast fiber plans or those needing high-speed Ethernet backhaul for a robust AiMesh system. Powering all of this is a high-performance 2.6 GHz quad-core 64-bit CPU, ensuring that the router remains responsive even under heavy traffic loads and intense security processing.
Designed for the modern, complex home, the RT-BE86U includes Guest Network Pro, which allows you to segment your network into five distinct SSIDs for IoT devices, VPNs, or guest access, each with its own management and security rules. With AiProtection Pro (powered by Trend Micro), you get subscription-free, commercial-grade security that protects your network from threats 24/7. Whether you are optimizing your setup for mobile gaming or building a professional-grade home studio network, the RT-BE86U delivers the performance and flexibility to handle it all.
