ASUS ZenWiFi XD6 Whole Home Mesh WiFi 6 System (2 Pack White): Coverage up to 500m2 (4+ Rooms), Easy Setup, Free Lifetime Network Security and Parental Controls

I’m using the ASUS ZenWiFi XD5 in a double-router setup with the AiMesh system, and wow—this thing performs like a dream! Setup was intuitive and quick, and once it locked into mesh mode with my other ASUS router, everything just clicked. The coverage is seamless across the house, and there’s zero drop in signal, even between floors and through thick walls. The speed is outstanding thanks to the 160MHz bandwidth and Wi-Fi 6 support. Streaming, gaming, and remote work are all running silky smooth—no buffering, no lag, just rock-solid performance. Plus, the AiProtection security adds that extra peace of mind for a busy household. Bonus points for the sleek white design—it blends right in without screaming "tech hub." Couldn't be happier with this unit as part of my mesh setup. Highly recommend if you want hassle-free, high-speed Wi-Fi that just works.

I purchased this Asus mesh setup as a 3-pack about 18 months ago attracted by its reasonable cost and WiFi6 capability and been really pleased with it. I originally used it with a Virgin Media Hub 3 that I ran in modem mode (sorting the VM config was more difficult than setting up the Asus mesh) but we now have BT Openreach so the Asus is running in PPPoE mode and plugs directly into the Openreach ONT (the little white box on the wall) so you dont even need the BT Smarthub which means a really quick and neat installation. We have a 4 bed house with solid internal walls, BT delivers 500MBps and we get 230MBps performance pretty much everywhere in the house and in our relatively small garden. The speed loss is probably the result of not having a dedicated wifi backhaul channel - although the Asus can be setup with a wired backhaul if you can be bothered to run some cables. If i had a slower internet feed i suspect the % speed loss would be much lower. I like that the system is easy to setup and the Asus app is quite good and useful to be able to monitor (and if necessary reboot) the system remotely. The units themselves are incredibly neat and you can switch off the indicator lights too if you want to. It has proven ultra reliable. When running with VM we had a few VM outages after which on a couple of occasions I had to switch the Asus units off then on again to reboot the system. Running with BT it hasn't missed a beat. If I was buying again, given my experience, I might be tempted to pay a bit more for the Asus XT9 which has a dedicated backhaul but just how much better the performance would be I'm not sure. Certainly can't see any reason to upgrade from these tiny little cubes, their size belies their performance and capabilities.

The BD4 comes nicely packaged complete with Ethernet cable and two plugs for connecting the mesh to the mains. The boxes themselves are nicely made and feel substantial. Initial connection went well and the devices updated. Unfortunately I made an error on my network name so needed to reset the boxes. I then had an issue connecting the second box but using an ethernet cable it worked in the end. The connection has been rock solid ever since. These are a fine buy for 4 reasons. Firstly, they are the cheapest wifi 7 mesh systems around albeit the lowest spec. Secondly, there are numerous settings in the app and also on the webgui or you can just leave it at default but for tweakers this is a great option to have. Third Netgear and TP link charge for internet protection whereas Asus do not. Fourth Asus warranty is 3 years out of the box, TP Link its 2 and Netgear its 2 unless you pay for their internet protection. The cons are that the boxes are slower than the others to update or reboot but as this is only like to be on rare occassions its not a great concern. Plug and Play works fine initially but does seem to faulter if you have to reset the devices for those reasons they loose a star. A great buy especially when they are cheaper than the competition when buying the two pack.

took about 15 minutes to set up this dual node mesh router. Speeds close to the limit of my broadband package, and better than what I was getting with the old BT home Hub 5 I was using (with mesh extenders from BT) with fewer dead spots. ASUS Router app on phone also very easy to use. looking good so far.

I read the reviews, and thought the ones complaining about difficult setup are noobs. But boy was I wrong, setting this up was a nighmarish experience...from HELL. To begin with, the router did not find the APs out of the box-I hade to connect them via cable. For a consumer product EVERYTHING should work out of the box, with no fuzz. I did an update to the latest firmware and thought it was OK to start configuring - meeeh WRONG. After various issues for hours I decided to factory reset them, and when configuring the same settings for the 2nd time all of a sudden it all worked. Throughput is OK -500 Mbit is not a problem. There are some limitations to which is not clear - you can have a maximum of 3 WiFi networks. There is no WAN or LAN, the device is supposed to sense this but in my experience that seems shaky. BD4 has some known physical Layer 2 Ethernet issues, that can cause issues with switches, especially managed ones. Other later Asus ZenWiFi mesh solutions are supposedly better.

Easy to install, great coverage, signal strength and speed exceeded my expectations.

Wow just wow, super good range and super fast, the easiest installation I ever done

ZenWifi Mini XD4-3 lü paket 1 gün sonra elime ulaştı pakette güvenlik şeritleri yoktu tabi kıllandım ürünün daha önce kullanılmış/denemiş yada teşhir ürünü olduğunu düşündüm, paketi açıp baktığımda üzerlerinde çizik yoktu ancak 3 üründen 2 tanesinde is kir vardı buda teşhir ürünü olduğu şüphemi arttırdı. Ürünleri kurmaya başlasam da ilk başta tanıtmayı başaramadım tam iade aşamasına gelmiştim ki Asus RT-AX86U router kullandığım için router arayüzü üzerinden tanıtmak geldi aklıma, RT-AX86U'nun arayüzüne girip iMesh bölümü üzerinden önce ana üniteyi sonra da diğer 2 üniteyi tek tek tanıtıım ve oldu. Şu an evin her yerinde sinyal seviyesi en üst seviyede. ZenWifi Mini XD4 2 günlük kullanımın sonucu ürünü iade etmeyi düşünmüyorum çalışmasında sorun yok ancak satıcıya 2 çift lafın var bu tarz teşhir, denenmiş iade edilmiş vs gibi durumları açık açık yazarlar belirtirlerse son kullanıcı açısından daha iyi olur bizde ne aldığımızı bilir ona göre hareket ederiz. 1 yıldızı satıcı için kırıyorum yoksa ZenWifi Mini XD4 (de çok ucuz olmamasına rağmen) 10 numara işini yapıyor. AX (XT8) lerin çok pahalı olduğunu düşünüyorum yaklaşık 2 katı fiyat var bence buna gerek yok. Ev içi Mesh bağlantısı için bence ideal almayı düşünenler varsa Dolar kuru iyice yükselmeden ve kur zammı gelmeden değerlendirebilirler.

Sama konfiguracja wstępna nie należała do najprostszych pomimo że stara się taką być - był problem z połączeniem niektórych node'ów i trzeba było poświęcić dłuższą chwilę by w końcu załapały. Jednak jak już się zdoła uporać z konfiguracją to mesh działa bez zarzutu (pamiętam tylko pierwszego dnia że się sam zrestartował - może jakieś konfiguracje jeszcze przeprowadzał w sieci). Jestem w stanie osiągać bardzo zadowalające prędkości na łączu bezprzewodowym (dochodzą nawet do 930Mbps przy downloadzie - tyle ile wyciągam po kablu). Przełączanie w większości przypadków działa poprawnie - choć czasem taki telefon się rozłączy z internetem ale to nie wiem czy nie kwestia ustawienia czegoś w telefonie. Ogólnie po przesiadce z Deco gdzie tam dostawałem ciągle komunikaty o problemach z głównym mesh node'em to tak tu nic takiego się już nie pojawia.
