I was happy with TP-Link until recently I start using their scheduled restart.

The Mesh slave nodes (via WiFi backhaul) unable to reconnect after master mesh restart. Need to power off and on the extenders. The slaves need to be startup later than the master router.

Asus Aimesh no such issue.. now I had to wired up all my TPLINK wifi mesh extender using ethernet backhaul which defeat the original intention of "wireless".

Where does Asus get their chips from? No component from China?
Well if you want to drill cow horn tip, you can argue that there is probably at least some mainlander engineer employed in Broadcom.

Im questioning whether Asus is indeed more secure than TP Link, if the security weakness arise from components from China...

Prefer asus. Use for 10+ years still working

Just use cable, don't need any fancy wireless setup, most houses less than 100sqm but do the hardware until like some enterprise convention event
huh, u using the same router from 10 years ago and never upgrade to at least wifi 6?

My wifi 6 router installed 1+ year ago, i already wanna retire it for wifi 7

Asus has one of the best customer service in my experience with them

My Asus router spoilt and I went to their customer service center. Told them my problem, and they exchanged it with a newer model, no question asked. Impressed.
