    AMAZING router for our busy home network! Read this before you flash the latest firmware though!
    UPDATE 4/10/17 - We moved to a new house and Comcast gave us an upgraded modem/router that allegedly had all the same features as this Asus router all in one, so we tried it. In short, it completely sucked. Within a week it was dropping signal multiple times daily and I couldn't take it anymore so I put it into bridge mode and went back to using this Asus router and it has yet to drop signalONCE! I love this router so much.Original review -I have had the same old Linksys router for many years now and after buying a Roku 4, starting to use Plex, buying a network printer etc. it finally started to really show its age. Streaming was a nightmare. The printer kept going offline spontaneously and the router was dropping signal to all our devices and having to be manually reset constantly. I'd had it with the problems, so I did a lot of research an ended up buying this monster (and I mean that in the most flattering way possible). Here's what we have always connected to the network in our large multi-level house:PC connected via a wireless USB adapter (more on that later)HP Office Jet Pro 6978 printerWD My Cloud 4TB hard drive (USB 3.0)WiFi security camera monitorRoku 4WD TV Live plusDISH network HD3 iPhones2 iPads1 laptopAlso, I edit a lot of audio and video for people so I'm regularly downloading and uploading lots of very large files. We don't do any gaming but a large amount of streaming and other heavy internet heavy lifting. With the old router, my son couldn't watch YouTube kids on his iPad while I had big uploads or downloads going and streaming was out of the question. Comcast is our provider and the service is good, but I've never felt like we've gotten the most out of it...until now.So now that you know about our network and usage, let me tell you about this router:- It's a BEAST! It's definitely larger and takes up more real estate than our old router (see side by side comparison pic) but it's still pretty slim and low profile enough to fit on the top shelf of our office bookshelf along with our modem and WD My Cloud. The unit itself looks like it was manufactured in Mordor, but I admit, I kinda dig that about it. It's got this edgy, tough, sexy look.- While I'm no expert, I built my own PC and am also not a novice when it comes to computer peripherals. I have come to trust ASUS for reliable and quality products for use in my machine. I have a lovely ASUS dual monitor set up, an ASUS MOBO and an ASUS optical drive/burner among other things and they've all been fantastic. The quality of this router is just what I have come to expect from ASUS. It is extremely well packaged and comes with everything you need.- Set up was easy which I really appreciate (with a couple caveats which I will get to momentarily)- Connection speeds, streaming, downloading/uploading have all been BLAZING FAST and amazingly reliable every since I turned this on for the first time. I have never had such a wonderful network experience in my life!!- Dual channels are perfect! I connect all iPhones, iPads, printer, laptop etc (longer range devices) to the 2.4Ghz band and reserve the 5Ghz band for the workhorse PC and the Roku 4 for streaming. This seems to me the perfect set up! Everything works flawlessly!- I have yet to fully explore all of the available settings and software but I fully intend to take advantage. I was especially happy to see that there are great parental controls offered!So, the caveats I mentioned earlier and the reason I took off a star are:- While the setup was relatively easy and painless, I did run into a couple snags. First, only my 2.4Ghz band was showing up after the initial setup. Fortunately it didn't take too long searching forums to find an answer that worked for me. Someone said that it was the result of the firmware update. Indeed when I initially started the setup it found and strongly recommended that I download and install the latest firmware. Of course I did, why wouldn't I? However, this user said that the unit would have to be reset following the firmware update in order to work properly. I did just that and immediately my 5Ghz band became available to choose. Also, I had to mess around with the channel numbers/settings to find what worked best for me, this is especially true if you live in a high traffic area.- Also, this isn't the routers fault but is something I wish I'd thought of before, but my PC couldn't detect the 5Ghz band once it did show up because the USB wireless adapter I had wasn't designed for dual channel, 5GHz routers. It worked fine on 2.4Ghz but I wanted to run my PC on the 5Ghz band so I ended up buying a new TP Link Archer T4UH High Gain Wireless Dual Band Adapter and it is awesome!! Plays perfectly with this router. The 5Ghz band showed up immediately when I plugged it in and installed the driver and has been blazing fast ever since!All in all I have nearly nothing but good things to say so far about this router. I didn't like that I had to search forums to find an answer to the problem of the router requiring a reset after flashing the new firmware, but it was a quick and easy fix and now I'm in love! Why did I wait so long to upgrade!? Yes, this router might be overkill for my needs and yes, the pricetag isn't small, but I wanted something that wasn't going to be outdated any time soon and could not only handle what we're throwing at it right now but what we might throw at it in the forseable future. I couldn't be more pleased with this purchased now that I have it up and running!Hope this helps! I did NOT receive this item for free or at a discount.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Immediately solved WiFi issues with Virgin SuperHub 3.0
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 10, 2016
    I chose the RT-AC87U to solve a very specific issue and give me greater network control.

    I'll describe the position I was in as it might help others if they're facing the same problem.

    I am VirginMedia customer on the HomeWorks+ 300mbps service so I want to get the most out of what is a very fast connection if you're hard-wired or very close to the standard Virgin SuperHub. Unfortunately, I found that the WiFi signal on the SuperHub 3.0 was poorer than on the 2.0 (and that was never brilliant).

    If I was in the same room as the Virgin router I'd get the full bandwidth. However, the rate of connection dropped at a vicious rate when you moved out of the room. I needed a steadier and stronger signal.

    From reviews, after a solid week of looking and reading third party reports, I decided on the RT-AC87U. I could have bought a higher end model but the middle-of-the-range router seemed to offer just as good a WiFi signal and a decent mix of features.

    Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase and have given it 5 stars with one reservation on my recommendation (I'll come to that shortly).

    The unit is a fairly meaty sized thing. It certainly isn't something you'll be able to hide under a TV unit or similar unless it is much larger than a normal sized cabinet and you're not bothered about hindered the signal broadcast from the router. I have set mine to the side of the TV in order to get the optimum signal strength.

    There is a christmas-like array of blue lights on the front of the router. Frankly, it is rather over the top but if you like flashing lights then you'll love this. Fortunately, Asus have thought of people like me and there is a single button on the front edge of the router that lets you switch all the lights off without any loss of service or features.

    The router feels well made and the fixing of the WiFi aerials is easy. I haven't had any issues with them moving post-installation. Setting the router up, in terms of connecting it to my VirginMedia SuperHub 3.0, was very easy indeed. The router and Virgin modem were working together in no time at all. Attaching a hard drive to the USB 2.0 port as network attached storage was also very easy indeed.

    I have had a few issues using the USB 3.0 port in conjunction with a Maxtor 1Tb drive as a TimeMachine drive for an Apple MacBook Pro. The drive kept dropping off the network or the Mac wouldn't see it. However, this wasn't something I really needed anyway so I didn't persevere with the set-up and it may well be something I could have resolved had I done so.

    Upon testing the WiFi signal for the first time I found I was receiving about 75% of what I knew I could get in the room in which the router was installed. A little experimenting with the angle of aerials and a slight movement of the router soon changed that - it was flying at 312mb within minutes.

    I then tested the speed in the parts of the house, and outside the house, where I had experienced the biggest problems with the Virgin router.

    The change was dramatic. In an area where I had previously received 70mbps at best, I was seeing 170-180mbps. In another room where speed had dropped to 28-30mbps, it had increased to 110-120mbps.

    Switching between the 2G and 5G bandwidths (I opted for isolated network names so I knew precisely which I was connected to), the range of the 2G network was impressive. However, I was also pleased to see the extended reach of 5G on the router. I can get far better connectivity in areas I previously couldn't use the network.

    Whether the router has extended the total reach of WiFi is something altogether different. Instead, it appears to have a similar, perhaps slightly longer, range but within that area it offers far superior speeds. In other words, I can't really get onto the network further away from the router than I used to be able to. But, where I can receive the signal is at a far greater speed. That was the ultimate goal of buying the router so I can't complain.

    What I hadn't quite expected was the superb range of features offered by the Asus software. I've included a few screenshots of what it offers, from bandwidth monitoring per device, upload/download graphs, parental controls, network tools and so on, but the reality is that there is a lot more that I simply don't have time to go into. If you are looking for a router that comes with feature packed software to control your home network, allocate bandwidth (albeit crudely), monitor what your kids are doing, even control what times and devices can be used on the network, then I can't recommend this more highly.

    The software is also impressively intuitive and not at all complex to use. Whilst I have a lot of IT experience I don't think anyone would have too many issues getting to grips with what the software can do.

    So, what is my one reservation about the router?

    The WiFi signal has a desperately annoying habit of dropping out for 60-90 seconds on a daily basis. It is very unpredictable (random) in terms of when it does it and it'll occasionally do it twice a day. It means that both the 2G and 5G signals disappear and with no apparent cause. The router has the latest firmware/software updates, I've checked the system log, and I just cannot fathom why it does it. Devices connected by ethernet cable are unaffected. It is purely the WiFi signal that drops out and then comes back. It does come back though, without intervention.

    There is a function to set the router to auto reboot on a daily basis at a time you can specify and I may do that. However, I am reluctant to do so as it controls multiple CCTV cameras connected via ethernet, so a reboot will disconnect them temporarily and I'm not even sure if it'll resolve the WiFi issue.

    Overall though, the WiFi blip would not stop me from buying this product again.

    The combination of strong signal and the stable strength of that signal, software features and ports are enough for me to recommend it to anyone.
