Our Verdict

ASUS RT-BE92U

NETGEAR Nighthawk RS90

The NETGEAR Nighthawk RS90 and the ASUS RT-BE92U are both standalone Wi-Fi 7 routers. Unlike the dual-band RS90, the RT-BE92U features a tri-band design, mesh expandability, and multi-gigabit WAN/LAN ports better-suited to demanding tasks like gaming and streaming 4k media. While the ASUS is bulkier with external antennas, its superior performance and wider range outweigh the space-saving design of the RS90.
