Verdict

The ASUS ZenWiFi BT10 is a high-performance tri-band WiFi 7 (802.11be) mesh system delivering aggregate speeds up to 18,000 Mbps (BE18000) through its 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz bands. Powered by a 2.0 GHz quad-core processor and 2 GB of RAM, each unit features dual 10 Gbps Ethernet ports (WAN/LAN and LAN), a 1 Gbps port, and a USB 3.0 port for 4G/5G mobile tethering. Its main pros include massive throughput with 320 MHz channels and 4K-QAM, support for Multi-Link Operation (MLO) for faster backhaul, and subscription-free security via AiProtection Pro. However, some cons include its high premium price point, a limited number of total Ethernet ports (only three per node), and the absence of Automated Frequency Coordination (AFC) at launch, which can limit the range of the 6 GHz band.
