ASUS RT-AC68U and Linksys EA6900 review
Until recently, the fastest 802.11ac routers were labeled 'AC1750' or something along those lines. That refers to the combined theoretical bandwidth of the 2.4 GHz and the 5 GHz bands. On 2.4 GHz that is 450 Mbps and on 5 GHz that is 1.3 Gbps.

Asus RT-AC68U 802.11ac Dual-Band Wireless Router Review
Asus are well-known for pushing out the speed boundaries to even greater lengths when we consider their motherboards and graphics cards so it is only fair that they take this drive to push further and deliver us one of the world's fastest wireless routers.
Pros:
- Superior wireless signal strength and throughput speed
- Dual-WAN capability with fail over protection and load balancing
- Mobile applications for access to USB storage and router setup
- More than capable of delivering the power needed for the next couple of years
- Highly reputable brand when it...
Cons:
- Wireless adaptors capable of operating at the same high speeds are very limited at the moment
- Unsecured wireless networks out of the box are not wise – basic security at least is far better
- Not necessarily the first name you would think of when it comes to networking

Asus RT-AC68U review
Much like its RT-AC66U precursor, Asus's RT-AC68U Dual Band Wireless AC1900 Gigabit Router resides at the high end of the consumer router category. That said, the high price equates to remarkable performance, compliments of some upgraded internal components.

Review: Asus' 802.11ac modem-router brings its A-game
Asus has made a name for itself in the router game, typically providing high-performance units with plenty of flexibility. The DSL-AC68U continues the tradition. It's rated at 1,900Mbps -- that is, a single 802.11AC stream capable of 1,300Mbps, combined with a 2.4GHz stream rated up to 600Mbps.
Pros:
- Asus continues its strong showing with its high performing, extensively optioned router
- Its VDSL capability could mean future-proofing for some
Cons:
- The price will sting
- and for those with USB plans
- you only get one port
