    Excellent hardware, disastrous manuals and apps

    This is my second RP-AC51, I added it to my network which already includes one. Excellent performance. The problem is in the manuals and apps that help initialize it. The html page that the extender generates does not work, it was written in old code that is no longer supported by the latest browsers. The menus for both Android and Iphone apps don't match the manual and are written in English that would make you cry with laughter if you didn't have anything else to do but tinker with basic hardware. I got out of it by spotting a "plus" icon in the Asus app menu on Android. Not intuitive at all. I had to manually set the extender again when this process should be automated.
    So I'm taking 2 stars off for the lack of clarity and updates in the Asus manuals and apps. Disappointing from the ROG brand.

    Once configured, it is effective. But.....

    First of all, it was impossible for me to configure this device automatically, I had to go through the application. Already a bad point!
    Secondly, whether on IOS or Android, none of my devices could reach the site. And it is only by insisting for three days that I could finally configure the repeater. A novice, or a total non-geek would have given up long before, and would have returned the device.
    Anyway, after that it does its job efficiently. But I wouldn't recommend it to my grandmother!

    perfect

    I started by trying to set up the locator with my computer, but not easy; in WPS it's fine
    And very efficient, old house with big stone walls, nothing was passing in a room despite a low-end repeater, here it works very well
    Well, the aesthetics are average...but the Wifi is perfect

    Powerful and flawless

    Very good repeater. The first installation was quick and easy. After changing the network, the second installation was much more complicated. The easiest way is to make it communicate with the router by wps and then to connect to it on a PC to set up the identifiers (the mdp cannot be the same as the router's :-)

    Works very well except with a freebox revolution

    Works with liveboxes, Bboxes, neufBoxes (tested), with mobile hotspots perfectly but not specifically with the freebox Revolution even when updated.............. a pity because there is quality in the network capabilities.

    Use in AP

    Purchased to cover an area not covered by the Box's Wifi.
    I wasn't looking for performance but network coverage. Connected to an Ethernet network, the AP mode does its job well.
    The method is quite intuitive to switch to AP mode, then the setting via the web interface is quite extensive for those who want to push the security.
