  I ended with the ET12 and it's been stellar. I think you made a good choice, and glad you like it. I was never a big Asus guy before say the past year when I started checking out their products, but the configurability and performance are awesome, and they've been stable and reliable. I did use an AX86U with a wired AX86S satellite as the AiMesh point for awhile, and it was also excellent, but aesthetically I didn't like all of the antennas, so landed at the ET12. I really haven't had any stability or connection issues at all, other than a printer issue, but I think WPA3 was the issue. I think Asus turns on WPA3 by default, and once I set it to WPA2 only, that issue went away. The XT9 is a bit of a step up over the XT8, with 160 MH support on both 5GHz bands, and a bit faster CPU than the XT8 at 1.7 GHz (quad-core). And most Asus routers, including their mesh systems, other than maybe the XD4/XD5, support dual ISP's, which most other consumer solutions don't, so that's an added bonus. And you can set up multiple SSID's if you wish.

  I looked up your cute prosumer wifi towers, very nice! Reviews seem to be half that, and a quarter at realistic distances and network usages, all here https://www.tomsguide.com/reviews/asus-zenwifi-pro-et12 Of course even 2.5G wired blows it out the water, and I've been running 10G over CAT5e as a demonstration for clients since wifi was limited to 2.4ghz.  If you ever want some real performance give me a shout, I'll help you figure out how to run wires in your house

  this would be a big improvement; i use these with a wifi 7 wired router in a mesh [https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-ZenWiFi-AXE11000-Tri-Band-ET12/dp/B09QRLZMMH/ref=sr\_1\_1?crid=RSQJKS5RXZD4&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.EbVodpL5iDi2ymDPmcN4mLLRFn2ingKllCRlDg3tLunrUo\_JrzOutWq7JF5-ag\_uniYGCK0t7EFahHaxvtdK8rSpTSR754yj\_hBJvrXJ8JE4pyHq27\_GPAYjIhvnOcnzXSPeqV7irAVMu2XbcSu-eq40vRSC9vlrNiYuABgl6pv9iZnveFpAhNOAVhZdzg4QQlg9jdaalTXn\_uTA-8OU07YkN3HFWh9kVivWRpezdGaf1wQG4cmVdBwGatKbrJLWG0eOJicyWUk0zSR8kg\_0N6RllMvsrNazv\_qx0YaXqtE.1d-Q2od0KJ6lwfvZ6vKAwzatn9tuSxxFa0a395a0Vpo&dib\_tag=se&keywords=asus+et12&qid=1712443758&s=electronics&sprefix=asus+et12%2Celectronics%2C188&sr=1-1](https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-ZenWiFi-AXE11000-Tri-Band-ET12/dp/B09QRLZMMH/ref=sr_1_1?crid=RSQJKS5RXZD4&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.EbVodpL5iDi2ymDPmcN4mLLRFn2ingKllCRlDg3tLunrUo_JrzOutWq7JF5-ag_uniYGCK0t7EFahHaxvtdK8rSpTSR754yj_hBJvrXJ8JE4pyHq27_GPAYjIhvnOcnzXSPeqV7irAVMu2XbcSu-eq40vRSC9vlrNiYuABgl6pv9iZnveFpAhNOAVhZdzg4QQlg9jdaalTXn_uTA-8OU07YkN3HFWh9kVivWRpezdGaf1wQG4cmVdBwGatKbrJLWG0eOJicyWUk0zSR8kg_0N6RllMvsrNazv_qx0YaXqtE.1d-Q2od0KJ6lwfvZ6vKAwzatn9tuSxxFa0a395a0Vpo&dib_tag=se&keywords=asus+et12&qid=1712443758&s=electronics&sprefix=asus+et12%2Celectronics%2C188&sr=1-1)

  Just waiting for the be version of this to release. Not in a rush to update otherwise. Wondering if you can set clans on the ET12... ASUS seems to be selective distributing that feature to their entire suite of even higher end routers.

  i just dumped my be95 for asus et12..its like night and day so far, the Asus stuff blows the deco wifi7 stuff out of the water...AND, there is a REAL web interface, so making adjustments and tweaks is super easy, versus impossible with the non existent Deco Web interface..

  Yep, mine seems to be running wired backhaul without resorting to faking dual WAN. Perhaps I’ve lucked out?

  That’s a great tip about the double WAN, kind of annoying that they haven’t fixed it after all this time, but I appreciate it!

  Yeah, that sounds like Orbi. How have you been dealing with that piss-poor orbi app, btw? I couldn't get it to do anything really. Setup is a non-existent issue. Each ET12 comes with 4 ports: 2 1G ethernet and 2 2.5G ethernet. On the unit you want to be your "main router," just plug one 2.5G into your cable/fiber modem, the other 2.5 into your house network (Cat5 will work just fine.) On the remote ET12 (or ET12s if you get several) just plug your house net into one of the 2.5G ports. When things boot up, if the remote ET12 detects your plugged into a house net, it will use ethernet as the backhaul, otherwise it uses the 6Ghz radio. Easy peasy. Oh! There is one gotcha that took me a few days of internet sleuthing to figure out. The ET12s have a secondary WAN port that you can use as a backup internet in case your primary provider goes down. Kinda cool, *but* there seems to be a bug in the firmware. If you tell the system that you only have one WAN, *it never connects to other ET12 nodes using your home ethernet, but always resorts to the 6Ghz backhaul*. The way around that is easy, and thanks to an unknown redditor for trying every configuration under the sun to get it working: *simply lie to the ET12 and tell it you have two WANs.* That's it, that's the trick. Your main ET12 portal page will look like this for the rest of your life (or until Asus fixes this issue), but... ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯ [Double your WAN pleasure, Double your fun](https://imgur.com/a/g4qdiA5)

  Hi there. Honestly, it's been great. I use 2 ET12s to cover the same space as 3 of the Orbis. (That makes it cheaper, of course, by about US$500) The app is superior to the Netgear app in almost every way, and (this was my biggest gripe with the Orbi) the app and the web portal are always in sync. Coverage has been great. I do not have any wifi 6 devices yet, so I cannot tell you about that radio, but the 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz connections have been solid. I have wired Ethernet throughout my house, so that is my back haul. If you don't have wired Ethernet, you have to let the device use its 6GHz channel for the back haul, which I believe means you would not be able to use WiFi 6. Hope that all helps.

  No worries - thought I would save someone the hours of my life I would never get back trying to figure that out ;) The real hero is the unknown redditor that must have sat at the Asus portal for hours flipping all the settings until he/she found one that caused it to work. Very odd bug, but workarounds are fine, I guess.

  I just switched from eero pro 6 which worked fine but I wanted to try something different, so switch them to ASUS et12 2 pack, they work fine but I’m having some issues that I dont understand very well, I’ve got smart air conditioners that worked perfectly on eeros but when trying to connecting them to the new network they don’t see it, even they are very close to the nodes, the Same room, and I’ve got only one 6e device which is an iPad Pro 6th gen and can’t see the 6ghz band when trying to connecting it to, maybe some of you could help me out here to see what I can do, both nodes are connected trough Ethernet, all other devices seem to work fine, thanks a lot

  Thats good to hear. very promising. I forgot to mention setup headaches. These weren't bad, and were all due to my lack of patience. The initial boot seems to take a long time before the app can find it. I tried 3-5 times before it would actually connect. But setting up the node was easy AF. Literally just plug it in and it finds the main unit and configures itself.
