Our Verdict
ASUS ROG Rapture GT6
ASUS ZenWiFi XT9
The ASUS ZenWiFi XT9 performs better than the ASUS ROG Rapture GT6. It's faster when you're up close and has better range, despite both being Wi-Fi 6 mesh systems with a 2.4GHz band and two 5GHz bands. The XT9 has a sleek exterior design, while the GT6 has aggressive gamer styling that may not be for everyone.
