INSANE Gaming Wifi Router ... With Crazy Distance Coverage!
**The Experience with Asus AI Mesh**
I'm actually in the middle of a multiplayer game right now, and what's exciting is that my friend who's playing has like over 40 years of experience, and he's been playing Fortnite for like fortnight. His pain point was something like 1550 when playing normally, but by moving to a different server, we're getting around 40-16 or 14-16 frames per second, which is actually pretty cool.
The margin of that difference isn't as significant as before, and I'm not feeling any latency while pressing the spacebar or anything. For now, it's running okay, and so after a little bit of Fortnite gameplay, we've got 0% packet loss, which is actually pretty impressive to think about. The AMS network signal was perfect, even having one node in the living room, one node in the kitchen, and another node in the car to create a unified network without interruptions.
For this experiment, I decided to place the kitchen node onto the balcony because it would just completely fill the outdoor area with Wi-Fi. It's the perfect opportunity to fill your front yard or backyard as long as the router is protected, ensuring reliable Wi-Fi where there was none before. This is a great feature of the AI Mesh system.
**Testing G-Force**
Now, let's do a second test using g-force, which is like the ultimate network test. We're streaming from a server in Frankfurt, which is pretty far away, and I'm getting full 1920 by 1200 resolution at 60 FPS on my MacBook Pro while playing CS:GO. By the way, GeForce Now is a cloud gaming service from Nvidia, so everything is running on the cloud, and you're just receiving the video feed. The most important variable here is your network, since the closest servers to Bulgaria are in Frankfurt.
The main drawback of streaming from that far away is latency, which I'm experiencing a little bit with mouse movement and stuff. However, absolutely no frame drops and the network is solid and stable. Using this additional Wi-Fi adapter from Asus has made all the difference. Of course, you wouldn't be playing GeForce Now for competitive games through these layers of networking, but just to showcase how it's working.
**Outdoor Testing**
I've just moved a hundred meters away from the node while playing 4K video on YouTube as you can see right now. Yeah, full 4K resolution with no buffering whatsoever - maybe like one or two seconds of buffering, and then back into the video that is incredible. I'm using the Wi-Fi adapter here to ensure my signal strength is much better than built-in Wi-Fi on my MacBook.
The signal strength and distance are kind of crazy. The best thing about this whole system is the expansion element in my opinion because if you already have an Asus router that has a mesh support, adding another one as a node is possible to expand your range. It's also great how everything is just broadcasted as one network - you don't have to connect to individual SS IDs.
**Real-World Experience**
I'm pretty impressed with the additional range I got having one node on the balcony, especially since it was in this open space nothing interacting with it. It was not inside the building and also using the additional USB Wi-Fi adapter but it's pretty awesome how you can cover such large vast distances outdoors while also filling in the internal structure with 2 or 3 routers to have like no dead zones anywhere.
It shows the true versatility of this AI Mesh system. Alright guys, that's my experience with Asus AI Mesh. I love the simplicity of this entire system - even if you unplug and power down on the nodes, you'll still remember it as a node when it's back up and running because it's already registered on the main AI mesh router.
I'd love to hear what type of network you're running in your own home and if you're experiencing any dead zones. Maybe you potentially go the AMS route - let me know in the comments below.
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhello good people of the internet you're probably watching this video on your smartphone your notebook or a desktop computer all connected to your home Wi-Fi network we all know where the signal is best in places where it just doesn't want to penetrate may be due to thickness and material of the walls distance from the router and many other variables and the best Wi-Fi network is a simple one no dropouts a powerful connection throughout your home and simple hardware upgrades to expand your network to cover those dead zones and so today we're talking about a soos a imesh which is a new feature lets you combine multiple of Asus router x' together they don't have to be identical by the way and create your own mega Wi-Fi network so you can have Wi-Fi literally anywhere even in a nearby park as long as there's a power source for your router the new master keys MK 750 keyboard comes with a comfortable magnetic rest rest beautiful RGB light bar on the perimeter and perky lighting control with a variety of Cherry MX switches and the bottom type-c connection Coolermaster doing it right check it out below now my home isn't large enough to showcase the true potential of AMS you know this is more targeted for multi-store homes for really large square footages like 2,000 square feet or about 200 square meters for outdoor areas too so in this video I'll show you how easy and simple it is to set up and also showcase my little experiment to get Wi-Fi in the nearby park now before the arrival of the ROG rapture router I had no signal in the kitchen even though it's less than 10 meters away from the source in my living room from the tp-link router which I thought was powerful and I thought that the signal just cannot penetrate through the concrete walls but after upgrading to the GTAC 5300 it expanded my coverage to the kitchen and beyond where I now get 85% signal strength in a spot where it was previously completely absent and so this beast of a hashtag drone like spider router is what we'll use as the AMS router or the source for other routers to communicate with and this is where we use the older but supported routers as a mesh nodes to create that mega network and you can see a full list of supporter routers online on the AMS product page now the setup is super simple first step is to upgrade the firmware and all the routers to support the new AMS network it actually prompts to do this right away at the start when they're plugged in to avoid incompatibility later the second step is to have all your AMS nodes close to the main router for that initial search that just need to be powered on so no land connection necessary no internet connection necessary there just be found through their own unique SS ID and after that they are registered as your AMS nodes and you can unplug them and move them into the dead zones now if the nodes are not found during the search you can manually assign the router to operate as a a mesh node after which he'll show up or the easier way is to just simply factory reset me at the button in the back and we automatically detected as the node when the search continues and once configured you can rename the nodes you can see how many nodes you have in total and how many devices are connected to each node as well but despite having three routers I just see it as one network broadcasting in 2.4 and 5 gigahertz connections and this means wherever I'm in the space I'm constantly connected to the most powerful signal possible so if I'm switching between the kitchen and my bedroom that seamless switch happens I don't even realize it because I'm on this one network and there is absolutely no interruption when that switch happens and this is where my experiment comes in all right two nodes on the a a mesh network right now is being recognized both routers the kitchen one is getting full signal which is awesome and the car one is downstairs which about 60 meters away and we're almost getting full signal North even two bars full three bars awesome all right people the car router is here and check this out so we are powering it via 12-volt inverter and no additional Ethernet cable required it just requires some power and it's communicating with the other day.i mesh nodes to get us to full power internet let's check out the speeds alright so opening up one of our videos inside a car about 67 meters away from my apartment we're using the Asus router over here I've just connected to a 5g Network through the source that's in my living room and we're right now I'm gonna watch some 4k videos no problem okay how about the part that hasn't buffered yet obviously would not be a networked video without showing some fortnight I'm kidding but the reason why we're showing this is because so we are actually in the multiplayer game right now and what is our pain man is like over 40 it's something like 1550 when you play normally what do you get around 40 to 16 14 to 16 so the the margin of that difference probably not as significant as before and I mean you plank a plane for like multiplayer inside a car about from from this guy this this guy is doing a very good job communicating to the other router that is upstairs and do you feel any latency like when the pressing spacebar or anything let up mmm for now no I'm not feeling anything wrong with the game it's running okay and so after a little bit of fortnight we have 0% packet loss which is actually pretty cool to to think about so the AMS network signal was perfect having the main router in the living room one node in the kitchen and the second node in the car to create a unifying network without interruptions and with this car experiment I decided to place the kitchen node onto the balcony

receiving the video feed so the most important variable here is your network and since the closest servers to Bulgaria is Frankfurt the main drawback is latency okay so this next test is pretty crazy I have calculated to move about 50 meters away from my last node which is on the kitchen on the balcony right now so it is exposed to the park area and I am in g-force now on the Frankfurt server playing csgo casual still receiving full signal at 60fps 1920 by 1200 resolution I'm experiencing a little bit of latency with the you know with mouse movement and stuff but absolutely no framedrops and the network is solid and stable using this additional Wi-Fi adapter from Asus now of course you would not be playing GeForce now like some competitive games through all these layers of networking but just to showcase how it is working and everything is just going fine of course there is latency because I'm so far away from the servers but the networking side of things is working flawless and that's pretty exciting ok guys so this is crazy I've just moved a hundred meters away from the node playing 4k video on YouTube as you can see right now and yeah full 4k resolution no buffering
