Our Verdict

ASUS ROG Rapture GT6

eero Pro 6

The ASUS ROG RAPTURE GT6 and the eero Pro 6 are tri-band Wi-Fi 6 mesh systems with a 2.4GHz band and two 5GHz bands. They have a very similar range, but the eero is slightly faster up close. The ASUS has more network ports, a USB port, and many more configuration options, but it has a very aggressive, gamer-y design that may not fit into your living space. The eero router, on the other hand, is more 'set it and forget it' as it has far fewer settings you can play with. It's the better pick for more casual users, while the ASUS is better for enthusiasts.
