With the Asus Router app, the setup process is a breeze. You may also configure things using a web browser, the router will default to 192.168.50.1 and allows for more customization once you're within the app or that web interface. You may also immediately configure a mesh system if you already own AiMesh-compatible routers. For the APP based install, connect the WAN of the router, power it up, wait until the LEDs are active and login to the ASUS WIFI SSID with admin/admin.

Looking at the sides of the unit you can see the antenna connectors for wireless networking, note that high power antennas on all routers are restricted to transmitter power regulations, this is a very expensive multi-band router, ergo there are eight of them. Located on the side corner are the standard buttons for quick connect WPS, Wifi, and on/off. New is a custom '(Game) Boost mode. This instructs the router to intelligently prioritize gaming traffic ahead of other processes. The mode can be turned on using a physical button on the router, or in the GUI or app interface. The tech will reportedly help eliminate network lag and latency, creating a better online gaming experience (hopefully).

Connectors:

1x WAN (internet) port
1x 2.5 Gigabit Port
4x Gigabit Ports
2x USB 3.0 Ports
12v DC Power
On/Off Switch

A bit hard to see, but here is a series of LEDs indicating LAN/WAN activity and, sure, power on. The router's USB ports can be used to connect to external storage devices of any capacity. You can use external hard drives formatted in FAT32, or NTFS. The router supports UPnP and DNLA streaming, so content stored on an external drive can be played back by network media streamers.

The company is not so much known from their PSUs (as they’re rather associated with the motherboards, graphic cards, monitors, or peripherals). Still, we had a chance to check the first Thor at the end of 2018, when the 1200W version was reviewed (priced 329 EUR/USD), earning the “Best Hardware” award. Will the new version be as successful?
