    Amazing so far! + Thoughts after using it for a week
    Our neighborhood finally got access to fiber internet and my trusty AC1750 router couldn't keep up with the new 940 Mbps up/down speeds. I was able to set up the AXE-7800 in just a few minutes and the performance is fantastic. (I did buy a Cat 6 cable to connect the fiber modem to the router instead of using the included Cat 5e cable). The screenshot showing 874 Mbps down/823 up is from my laptop separated from the router by 20 ft and 3 walls. Even in the furthest reaches in the basement of my house, I'm getting 300 down/150 up, which is more than adequate for my needs. I hope this router will be reliable over the long term, but so far I'm very happy.Additional thoughts after a week:The Wifi 6E feature is less useful than anticipated. I'm basically only using Wifi 6 because the range drop-off for the 6 GHz band is pretty harsh. Close the router, 6E performance is fantastic. 10 feet away with a direct line of sight, I get my full 940/940 speeds on Wifi. But anywhere more than 15 feet away from the router and if there are walls in the way, I'm getting better performance on the 5Ghz/2.4Ghz bands. My laptop can't even detect the 6Ghz connection if I'm in the basement. I guess 6E would be useful in an environment with too much interference in the 5Ghz/2.4Ghz bands but it doesn't really do too much for me. I don't think it's the fault of this router, just a limitation of the technology.Second, the ethernet port: I found that my fiber modem and this router aren't able to communicate at 2.5 Gb through the high speed LAN port. Maybe it's my fiber modem's fault, but the router/modem only used it as a 1 gb LAN port. Thankfully, this router has WAN aggregation where it lets you plug in two 1 Gb ethernet cables into the router. It was pretty easy to set up and it seems to be better, especially handling concurrent traffic up and down.Lastly, it's been stable with no drops. I'm still glad I chose this router.
