Hey there! It sounds like you're weighing a few options for your new Wi-Fi 7 router. The ASUS RT-BE92U has good reviews and lets you manage it via SSH, which is handy. On the other hand, Unifi offers a nice dashboard experience. If you value ease of use and visual management, Unifi might be worth considering. What matters most depends on your needs—performance, setup flexibility, or interface preference. Let me know if you want more details!
If Ubiquiti is on your thoughts, a standard box router won’t suffice. I’ve used ASUS for almost twenty years before switching to Ubiquiti roughly two months ago... I’m not looking back. Yet I invested heavily in networking gear. The challenge with modular systems is balancing your requirements and desires. If you have space to run cables and place access points in various spots, then Ubiquiti is the best choice in my view. I’m genuinely very satisfied as a customer. Just remember, everything I bought stays in a rack in my garage or mounted outside/on the ceiling—so it involves a lot of effort and adjustments. The unexpected feature from Ubiquiti was the Teleport VPN. It lets you send invites to yourself or others for remote network access. All the setup is included in the console, and each client needs an app to turn on or off the VPN as needed. It’s a seamless option without extra ports or work. I can’t imagine living without it again. You can start with a simpler setup similar to what you’re considering. Let me know if you’d like some suggestions. The main questions are: 1) Do you require speeds above 1 Gbps for WAN? 2) Will you need camera equipment support in the future?
As a Unifi user I understand it's excellent. A minor note: Ubiquiti's WiFi 7 APs often face problems with many 2.4G devices. This might only matter if you have numerous IoT clients, but it's worth checking the affected firmware versions.
You’ll need to clarify exactly how you’d like the new router to function and the conditions it’ll operate under. Keep in mind that real-world performance can vary after setup.
