High-speed wireless router with Gigabit Ethernet support and simultaneous operation in two Wi-Fi bands (2.4 and 5 GHz). The manufacturer is positioning itself as a model of the middle price category, designed for demanding users who want to realize all the possibilities of a gigabit incoming network connection. As a hardware basis of the device, a Qualcomm IPQ4018 quad-core ARM-A7 processor with a frequency of 720 MHz and a volume of RAM / permanent memory - 128/128 MB is used.
A Gigabit Ethernet (RJ-45) port is provided for connecting to a provider; thanks to the USB 3.0 connector, it is possible to use wireless 3G and 4G (LTE) modems. The Asus RT-AC58U wireless router is capable of supporting up to 4 LAN connections with a data transfer rate of up to 1 Gbps and simultaneously working in dual bands of 802.11b / g / n / ac Wi-Fi networks. There are 4 antennas with a gain of 5 dBi and support for MU-MIMO multi-threaded I / O technology, which allows you to simultaneously work with multiple client devices.
The SmartQoS feature enables traffic prioritization, which can be useful for minimizing network latency in games. Acts as a firewall Firewall, with a USB connection of the appropriate devices, it can work as a file or print server. The router is easy to set up, compatible with current versions of operating systems of the Windows family (7, 8, 8.1, 10) and MacOS. Can be configured from a smartphone (requires the ASUS Router app, available on Google Play).

Perfect middle class
ASUS RT-AC58U is a rather interesting dual-band router that offers a decent set of features at an affordable price: it is equipped with gigabit LAN ports and one USB 3.0 interface and supports AiRadar technology. Plus, it looks cute and will not scare guests if you put it on the table. At the same time, it is small, which definitely should be written down as an advantage of the model, since manufacturers are often guided by the strange principle “the steeper the router, the larger it should be”. And all this Asus is asking for just under $90.
Dual band operation and AiRadar support
The router belongs to the AC1300 class when four external antennas are used for stable coverage: a pair for the 2.4 GHz band and a pair for the 5 GHz band. In the first case, we have a throughput of 300 Mbps plus an additional 100 Mbps when using equipment that supports TurboQAM technology. In the 5 GHz band, the speed rises to 867 Mbps, which gives a total theoretical Wi-Fi throughput of about 1200 Mbps. In actual use of Wi-Fi, you can count on 150 – 160 Mbps on a 2.4 GHz network and up to 600 Mbps on a 5 GHz network. The numbers are good, but not fantastic. But it is worth praising the implementation of AiRadar technology, which slightly increases the network coverage area and provides a more stable signal.
Get the most out of USB 3.0
As part of the additional functionality, we have the ability to control the bandwidth of SmartQoS, parental control, guest network, VPN. You can connect printers, drives, modems to the USB port. The router also supports work with the proprietary AiCloud cloud and allows you to create an AiDisk server. In general, the feature set is rich and fully exploits the capabilities of USB 3.0. It's not just for connecting an external modem.
