Our take on the ASUS RT-BE92U BE9700

The ASUS RT-BE92U is a tri-band Wi-Fi 7 router rated at up to 9,700 Mbps, with one 10 Gb and one 2.5 Gb Ethernet port plus five LAN ports. It supports AiMesh, so it can pair with other ASUS routers to extend coverage, and it includes built-in VPN and parental controls through the ASUSWRT app. It suits households with multi-gig internet or a busy home network that want Wi-Fi 7 without paying flagship prices. Against rivals it trades a second 10 Gb port and extra radios for a simpler, cheaper design, and owners rate it well overall though some report firmware quirks and warm running.

Questions and answers

Is the RT-BE92U worth it over a Wi-Fi 6 router?
If you have Wi-Fi 7 phones or laptops and multi-gig internet, yes. On older devices the gain is small, and a good Wi-Fi 6 router covers most homes for less.
How does it compare with the RT-BE96U?
The BE96U is a higher tier with more radios and ports. The BE92U keeps Wi-Fi 7 and a 10 Gb port but is simpler and better suited to smaller networks.
Does it work with older ASUS routers in AiMesh?
Yes. It joins AiMesh with most recent ASUS routers, so you can add it as a node or use it as the main router.
How many devices can it handle?
ASUS does not give a hard limit. In practice it handles dozens of phones, laptops and smart-home devices, and the 6 GHz band takes pressure off 2.4 and 5 GHz.
What is in the box?
The router, four external antennas, a power adapter, an Ethernet cable and a quick-start guide.
Does it support VPN?
Yes. It has a built-in VPN server and client, so you can dial in remotely or route traffic through a VPN provider.
