This review will not be useful to most people buying this router.It will hopefully be extremely useful to one or two people buying this router for the same specific purpose I did.So I bought this router as a solution to running PCVR games on my Oculus Quest 2 via Virtual Desktop app, without the wire or the Oculus Link stuff. I first tried this with my home router and found it playable but a little inconsistent with it being in the next room and with so many deviced hooked up to it. I then tried two different wifi adapters for my PC and turning them into hotspots via windows computer. The first, a USB 3.0 one gave me super consistent 40ms latency. Which is fine, but there was a lot of room for improvement there and not worth discarding the link cable for. The second wifi adapter was a PCI one that disappointed greatly. Despite in theory being twice as capable as the USB one, it would periodically spike from 30ms latency (basically ideal) up to 100ms of latency (very disorientating).So that led me to this: the nuclear option. Or close to it. There are certainly more expensive routers I could have gone for, but this one seemed right. I set this up as an access point in the same room I use my Quest 2 in. The long ethernet cable that used to feed into my PC now feeds into this router, giving it the internet fed from the main home router, and then two more ethernet cables feed into my PC and PS4. I then connected my Quest 2 to the router wirelessly, and didn't connect anything else.Results were immediately better, but to further optimise I set the router to 802.11ac only, turned off its 2.4ghz functionality and set its channel to the least used one (as shown via a phone app called wifi analyser) and the channel width to 80.The end result is a completely consistent wireless Quest 2 experience with imperceptible latency. On Half Life Alyx I see around 25ms of latency, on Walking Dead I see 30ms, and on Star Wars Squadrons I see 20ms. Most importantly the experience is consistent and can handle bitrates of 90mbps, which for me was the best balance of good image quality and latency. Last night I played over an hour of Half Life Alyx this way, and it was seamless.So, if you're in the market for this very specific thing, this'll do you fine.  Read Less
