Our Verdict

TP-Link Archer BE400

ASUS RT-BE92U

The TP-Link Archer BE400 and the ASUS RT-BE92U are both Wi-Fi 7 routers, but the ASUS is tri-band, while the TP-Link is only dual-band, lacking a 6GHz band. As such, the ASUS delivers much higher top speeds and better speeds at close to medium distances than the TP-Link. The ASUS also has faster wired networking with a 10Gbps WAN port and four 2.5Gbps LAN ports, while the TP-Link has two 2.5Gbps ports and three gigabit ports.
