Asus has launched a premium Wi-Fi 7 router under its ROG (Republic of Gamers) lineup, packed with some interesting features. The new ROG Strix GS-BE18000 looks a lot like a gaming mini-PC tower laden with ROG branding and an RGB logo at the front, along with nine 2.5G ports. Announced at Computex 2025, the router was displayed alongside the ROG Rapture GT-BE19000AI, another high-end model featuring a sleek white design and AI capabilities thanks to a built-in Neural Processing Unit (NPU).
The ROG Strix GS-BE18000 router is meant for gamers, enthusiasts, or even a small office setup. It offers combined wireless speeds of up to 18 Gbps across the 2.4GHz (688 Mbps), 5GHz (5,765 Mbps), and 6GHz (11,529 Mbps) bands, and a total of 20 Gbps wired capacity, featuring nine 2.5G LAN ports out of which two are dedicated for gaming, along with a 2.5G WAN port.
