Same deal as when PoRKroLL posted is a few weeks back but another $59.35 cheaper as part of the Prime Day sale.

Seems like a solid router for a very good price considering the rrp is close to $500 here in Australia.

Taking a risk with potentially non-aus firmware and plug, but it seems like others had luck getting around it

Enjoy!

    Dangggg tempting for quest 2

    • threeDspider on 13/10/2020 - 20:25

      yep i pulled the trigger for this reason.

      • Ameowzon on 13/10/2020 - 20:41

        I'm thinking the same. Quest 2 coming tomorrow or day after (argh, Amazon!). Is this the best option for the Quest 2? I'm currently on TP-Link Archer C9 :S

  • AEKaBeer on 13/10/2020 - 20:08

    Damn that's a good deal.

  • matictac on 13/10/2020 - 20:20

    Ordered one, cheers OP. Seems like a great deal compared to whats available in Aus at the same price.

    Seems like you need one of these to replace the UK plug.

  • Jklaro on 13/10/2020 - 20:23

    I want to hold off till wifi 6e routers. Seems wrong to go for a wifi 6 router so close to 6e releasing. Unless you are need it now.

    • sn809 on 13/10/2020 - 21:52

      The earlier deal states it might be possible via a firmware update, any confirmation??

  • Kdw26488 on 13/10/2020 - 20:30

    Is this worth replacing this?

    https://www.asus.com/au/Networking/RT-AC5300/

    • whyisave on 13/10/2020 - 21:30

      Yes, because I had that AC5300 too and in 2019,
      I upgraded to the GT-AX11000 and the stability,
      speeds & management of multiple WiFi devices is great.

      The AX chipset (for 802.11ax / WiFi 6) is quite good.

      It just depends on what price you can sell the AC5300,
      to recover costs,
      and at what price, you can buy the new AX router.

      ( I managed to get a great deal for the AX11000 last year, so that's why I went for it )

  • syngen on 13/10/2020 - 20:38

    Anyone know with this being a UK version, will it be different from the AU version in terms of transmit power etc?

  • OmNomNomagon on 13/10/2020 - 21:14

    this is super tempting

  • Sheld on 13/10/2020 - 21:18

    I had to do it
    Nearly bought the Asus pair in the eBay flash. Both are cheaper here

  • BadGiraffe on 13/10/2020 - 22:59

    Is this running on ASUSWRT?

  • grizz_li on 13/10/2020 - 23:51

    Time to upgrade from my TP-Link cheapie.

  • ZeeFlyingMonkey on 14/10/2020 - 02:12

    Damn great way to steal my money … but thanks OP

    Does anyone know of I can connect this to an NBN box and if it will work with cordless phones?

    • samkenny on 14/10/2020 - 09:33

      Leaving a comment to learn the answer. Google didn't help me :(

    • Twix on 14/10/2020 - 17:39

      It can connect to the NBN box. Which company provides your phone service?

    • avoidfullprice on 14/10/2020 - 19:08

      Unsure if it works with RSP which uses VLAN. I've yet to figure out.

      I don't see any phone port on this modem so unlikely will provide VoIP for FTTB type phone. Unless you meant something else?

      • Twix on 14/10/2020 - 20:26

        Asus supports VLAN 802.1q.

  • Gmetal on 14/10/2020 - 10:12

    Tempting, but i think if i pony up for a serious Wifi 6 router with mesh, i'll get one with tri-band so it supports wifi backhaul incase i need it in future.

    • w37hsyea on 14/10/2020 - 13:19

      6e routers are expected to launch by Dec-Jan

  • barandgain on 14/10/2020 - 14:54

    Any idea if these are covered under ASUS Australian warranty

    • Twix on 14/10/2020 - 17:41

      You're not covered under Asus Australian warranty.

      • BadGiraffe on 14/10/2020 - 19:14

        I don't know… I've bought stuff from the US before, and I was able to take it down to the Asus repair centre. Back when they made Android 2-in-1 tablets. Brought it to South Melbourne ( or South Bank?) and got it repaired there.

        • Twix on 14/10/2020 - 20:33
          +1

          When I asked Asus reps they said you're not covered for internationally purchased Asus hardware.

          Yeah the Asus repair place is in Southbank.

  • FabMan on 14/10/2020 - 19:52

    I've ordered one for my Quest 2, and other devices, thanks.

    My default Optus one is pretty naff.

  • LongMemory82 on 14/10/2020 - 22:32

    no merlin support yet?

  • B3 on 14/10/2020 - 23:13

    Anyone notice that ASUS are promoting 'indivisible antennas' for this on that Amazon page?

  • OmNomNomagon on 22/10/2020 - 21:52

    Mine arrived today. It comes with EU and UK clip in plugs. Looks like the Australian equivalent part number is asus-0a200-00080200 but can't see where to get one locally.

    • B3 on 22/10/2020 - 23:20

      What about what Matictac linked to at jbhifi above?

      I ordered one of these too but it's a while away yet. Look forward to learning more about it as there doesn't seem to be much information available for it. Even the Asus home page doesn't have a full manual!

      • OmNomNomagon on 23/10/2020 - 10:59

        Yeah that wont fit, Its a wall brick design where the plug clips in. Have to use a travel adapter.

        • Sparky on 23/10/2020 - 19:53

          Thoughts on how the router is?

          • B3 on 25/10/2020 - 09:29

            @Sparky: Yeah I look forward to any reviews or tips.

            Where to find decent manual for it would be great as well..

      • matictac on 28/10/2020 - 18:10

        That's my bad, I saw it linked in an old deal for this router so I was going off that. Received mine today and definitely does not work.

  • Sheld on 24/10/2020 - 17:05

    Mine arrived just now

    • Sliver37 on 27/10/2020 - 10:37

      Yeah mines gettin here today. Did you have any issues with the setup?

      • Sheld on 27/10/2020 - 10:58

        only the power adapter. need a travel adapter (or like i had an au version of the asus ac adapter)
        havent played too much with it as yet.

  • B3 on 29/10/2020 - 15:15

    I set min up in bridge mode, at 192.168.1.2. My modem stayed at 192.168.1.1.

    However now I can't access the modem at 192.168.1.1?? I forgot to switch off the old wifi network so need to get into it and can't figure out how to do that. It's not showing up in the Network map or anywhere else.

    Anyone got any ideas?

      Follow this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kahed6fbXTg&t=9s to access your modem from router, easiest way is just connect your pc/laptop directly to the modem with ethernet cable. Also my modem has physical button to turn off the wifi, check yours.
