Our Verdict

eero Max 7

ASUS ROG Rapture GT-BE98 Pro

While the ASUS ROG Rapture GT-BE98 Pro and the eero Max 7 are flagship Wi-Fi 7 routers, they meet different needs. Get the ASUS if you want a stand-alone router that offers deep customization options. By contrast, the eero is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a mesh network that prioritizes ease of use. Both routers are capable of delivering blazing fast speeds, and while the ASUS is also configurable as a mesh network, out of the box, the eero delivers much better range performance.
