The ASUS ZenWiFi BT10 is a tri-band Wi-Fi 7 mesh router. It's part of ASUS's ZenWiFi lineup of mesh systems. It uses AiMesh, so it's compatible with any other AiMesh-enabled ASUS access point. It's available in a one, two, or three-pack; we bought a two-pack and tested it in dual-mesh mode. Ports include two 10Gbps Ethernet ports, one 1Gbps Ethernet port, and a USB 3.0 port. Like most ASUS routers, it uses the feature-rich and highly configurable ASUSWRT firmware. With it, you can configure a range of expected and advanced features, like routing your entire network through a VPN, and advanced security called 'AiProtection'.
Note: We've removed the Wi-Fi coverage tests, as we're exploring better ways to convey the results that'll be more helpful to users.

Popular Router Comparisons
The ASUS ET9 is a tri-band Wi-Fi 7 mesh router part of ASUS's ZenWiFi lineup. It's similar to the ASUS ZenWiFi ET9 but supports Wi-Fi 7 instead of Wi-Fi 6E. It enters a quickly populating market segment of Wi-fi 7 mesh routers designed for performance and ease of use, like the TP-Link Deco BE63 and the eero Pro 7. It delivers very similar performance to the TP-Link, but is notably more performant than the eero. Another advantage of this router is that it uses ASUSWRT, ASUS' firmware that's far more configurable than what's offered on the eero or TP-Link routers. One of its features is VPN support, so you can route your entire network through a VPN.

The NETGEAR Orbi 370 and the ASUS ZenWiFi BT10 are both Wi-Fi 7 mesh routers with similarly slim form factors. The BT10 performs a cut above the Orbi as a tri-band system with MLO support and a 6GHz band. Its wireless speed and range win out against the 370, along with its dual 10Gbps ports per unit, ahead of the Orbi's 2.5Gbps connections.
The TP-Link Deco BE63 and the ASUS ZenWiFi BT10 are tri-band Wi-Fi 7 mesh routers. They both deliver very fast top speeds suitable for multi-gigabit internet connections, but the ASUS is slightly faster. Both deliver great overall range. As for connectivity, the ASUS has two 10Gbps Ethernet ports, a 1Gbps port, while the TP-Link has four 2.5Gbps Ethernet ports.
The ASUS ZenWiFi BT10 and the ASUS ZenWiFi ET9 are tri-band mesh routers that are part of the same lineup. The former is Wi-Fi 7 and the latter is Wi-Fi 6E. The BT10 delivers significantly faster top speeds, while both routers have similarly great range. The BT10 has faster wired networking ports with two 10Gbps Ethernet ports and one 1Gbps port, while the ET9 has three 1Gbps ports and one 2.5Gbps port.
The ASUS ZenWiFi BT10 is a better router than the eero Pro 7. While they're both tri-band Wi-Fi 7 mesh routers, the ASUS is more performant, delivering faster top speeds and better range. It also has better wired connectivity with two 10Gbps Ethernet ports, a 1Gbps port, and a USB 3.0 port, while the eero only has two 5Gbps ports.
