ASUS RT-BE96U Overview

Enjoy near stutter-free 4K video streaming, online gaming, and video chat experiences with the ASUS RT-BE96U BE19000 Wireless Tri-Band 1G/10G Router. Designed to provide reliable and exceptionally fast connections, this Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) router helps to future-proof your home with up to 18.7 Gb/s wireless speeds over the 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz bands with compatible devices.

Multi-link operation support allows you to combine multiple bands into one to help ensure fast and stable connections. Dual 10G Ethernet ports, one of which is a WAN/LAN port, allow you to take full advantage of multi-Gig internet service and network devices. You can also plug a cellular modem into the USB-A 3.1 Gen 1 port for backup internet connectivity. Comprehensive security features such as WPA3 encryption, the AiProtection Pro service, and VPN protocols help to protect your network and its devices. You can set up, manage, and configure settings such as the parental controls and guest login through the ASUS Router mobile app for Android and iOS.

Features
Wi-Fi 7 Performance
By supporting the 320 MHz channels, the Wi-Fi 7 standard delivers double the data transmission capacity with up to 20% higher transmission rates compared to Wi-Fi 6/6E.
Reliable Wi-Fi with Multi-Link
Instead of limiting data transmission to one band, Multi-Link Operation (MLO) allows you to simultaneously connect to devices with multiple bands for greater bandwidth and reliability. This connection also enables seamless switching, which automatically allocates data to the most suitable band to reduce latency.
Flexible Network Port Configuration
With two 10G Ethernet ports, you can quickly transfer massive files with compatible NAS devices and multi-Gig internet services. The rear panel also includes three 1G Ethernet LAN ports alongside a 1G WAN/LAN combo port. Link aggregation support allows you to combine two WAN or LAN connections for increased bandwidth.
Cool and Stable
The RT-BE96U is engineered to deliver optimal Wi-Fi performance with increased clearance under the router to improve airflow through the vents along with a quadruple heat sink design.
Subscription-Free Network Security
One-Tap Security Scan
The RT-BE96U router features hassle-free Security Scan, which helps users make sure the router is properly configured for network protection, including Wi-Fi password strength for each sub-network, port configuration, and more.
AiProtection Pro
This router includes AiProtection Pro powered by Trend Micro to help protect your connected devices. It also allows you to monitor your connections via the mobile app.
Comprehensive VPN Features
The Instant Guard mobile app gives you one-click secure internet access via the RT-BE96U from anywhere in the world. The site-to-site VPN feature also helps ensure that your data is transferred safely between routers located on different networks.
Advanced Parental Controls
You can monitor your kids' online activity and customize settings for each connected device. Features include setting up preset profiles for each family member, blocking inappropriate content, scheduling online time, and monitoring your children's screen time.
