The ASUS ZenWiFi AX (XT8) is a two-unit tri-band Wi-Fi 6 mesh system rated AX6600, with a dedicated backhaul band that keeps device traffic off the link between the nodes. Each unit has a 2.5GbE WAN/LAN port, three gigabit LAN ports, USB and a quad-core CPU, and ASUS rates the pair for up to 5,500 sq ft. It suits larger homes and people who want one network name with fast roaming and AiMesh expansion. Against cheaper dual-band mesh kits it costs more but holds speed better across nodes; against Wi-Fi 7 mesh it lacks the newer standard. Owners rate coverage and stability well and often call the app basic and the units large.
