And don’t get me wrong, it’s an interesting platform considering that Ubiquiti used it as well for its U6-LR, so I think it would be interesting to see how the router performs compared to its Broadcom-based siblings.

Further to the right, there’s the WAN LED, two LEDs for the 2.4GHz and the 5GHz radio bands and the last LED shows the status of the USB port. Internal Hardware (Asus RT-AX53U Teardown)

MtCmdChannelSwitch: ctrl_chl=64, ctrl_ch2=0, cent_ch=64 DBDCIdx=1, ChBand=1, BW=0, TXStream=2, RXStream=2, scan(1) MtCmdSetTxRxPath: ctrl_chl=5, ctrl_ch2=0, cent_ch=5, RxPath=3, BandIdx=0, ChBand=0, BW=0,TXStream=2, RXStream=3, scan(1)This means less interference, lower latency and far more efficiency, but only if the manufacturer has implemented it on both radio band, upstream and downstream. Asus has been quite adamant that they do implement this tech on both bands, but is it also the case with the entry-level models? There are no clear mentions on whether the Asus RT-AX53U uses OFDMA on both 5GHz and 2.4GHz, but in the GUI, you can enable it. The Asus RT-AX53U powered on.

The app includes plenty of other useful features too, including the ability to create a temporary guest network, and use QoS - quality of service - to prioritise certain types of online services, such as streaming video or gaming, that really need top performance. If you need more cabled connection, you will need to use a network switch and at that point, it’s better to just go with a more expensive router. Returning at the top of the Asus RT-AX53U, you do get the full suite of LEDs (I am surprised they didn’t put a single LED here..) and, from the left, there’s the Power LED followed by the three LEDs for the LAN ports. generációs WiFi szabvány –A WiFi 6(802.11ax) szabvány a jobb hatékonyság és a nagyobb átviteli kapacitás eléréséhez támogatja a MU-MIMO és az OFDMA technológiát. The Asus RT-AX53U is perhaps the most compact AX1800 router that I tested so far, measuring only 7.5 x 5.0 x 1.7 inches (19.0 x 12.6 x 4.4 cm) which is less than the RT-AX55. And it does have four antennas, two on the rear and two on the sides; these antennas are not removable which is expected in this price range. But then again, very few people actually upgrade the antennas and even less see an actual benefit because there is a limit to how high you can go for consumer-based networking devices. MtCmdChannelSwitch: ctrl_chl=9, ctrl_ch2=0, cent_ch=9 DBDCIdx=0, ChBand=0, BW=0, TXStream=2, RXStream=2, scan(1)MtCmdSetTxRxPath: ctrl_chl=36, ctrl_ch2=0, cent_ch=36, RxPath=3, BandIdx=1, ChBand=1, BW=0,TXStream=2, RXStream=3, scan(1) Also, the wireless performance was quite good on the 2.4GHz band but even so, I am very confident that you won’t see OFDMA on the 2.4GHz band for any inexpensive device for a very long time (the Asus RT-AX53U included). Then there’s the MU-MIMO which a lot of people argue that it doesn’t make any difference and I wrote a little bit about it as well, but the idea is that this technology makes much more sense on WiFi 6. Also, the network needs to be very crowded and yes, you still need compatible client devices which can make use of it. Then again, the 2×2 config offered by the Asus RT-AX53U is nothing to brag about. Lastly, I need to mention the support for AiMesh which allows you to connect the RT-AX53U to a larger network of routers and form a mesh system. It’s pretty much the same concept as with the dedicated mesh systems, but you do get the possibility to use different types of Asus routers and even across different WiFi generations. The Wireless Test (5GHz) MtCmdChannelSwitch: ctrl_chl=6, ctrl_ch2=0, cent_ch=6 DBDCIdx=0, ChBand=0, BW=0, TXStream=2, RXStream=2, scan(1)

You’re going to find all the ports and connectors on the rear side of the router and, from the left, there’s the Reset button, followed by Power button and the Power port. Then we get a USB 2.0 port which is there for printers since you’re not going to like the storage performance that it can deliver (are USB 3.0 that much expensive?). And next to it, there’s the WAN port (Gigabit) and three Gigabit LAN ports. What happened, where did the fourth LAN port go? It got annihilated by the budget cuts. Listen, WiFi is great and all, especially the WiFi 6, but you can’t yet beat a cabled connection, so I am definitely not a fan of removing LAN ports. The ports area on the Asus RT-AX53U. Connect to ssh and login by using the same credentials you used to login to the web interface (user is usually “admin”).

The Asus RT-AX58U is a fast and affordable Wi-Fi 6 router
