WIRED's gaming router testing named the Asus ROG Rapture GT-BE98 Pro, a quad-band Wi-Fi 7 router, as the fastest device it has tested. The guide also recommends Asus overall as the top gaming router brand, citing its ROG sub-brand, free security software, AiMesh compatibility and generous port selection.
WIRED's testing roundup for 2026 mesh Wi-Fi systems highlights different products for different needs: the Asus ZenWifi BD5 Outdoor as a weatherproof, PoE-powered node for existing Asus AiMesh setups, TP-Link's tri-band Deco BE67 as a strong all-around Wi-Fi 7 performer despite some setup glitches, and the budget Netgear Orbi 370 as a dual-band system that struggled badly with satellite-node speeds in real-world testing. The TP-Link Deco BE25 is also named a top pick for outdoor coverage on non-Asus networks.
