I'd check out the RT-BE58U for the same price. It has larger memory, USB 3.2 port and ability for WAN 5G Tethering. https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-RT-BE...B0DHWBS9G6 It does lack 6 GHz, so if that is must then skip.

I don't get what the point of a router even having memory is (beyond a tiny amount). why need much RAM on it when anything you do when using a router would just use the pc RAM?
I want an asus of $100 or less, but not sure either of these is a good deal.

not claiming this one does this, but aren't there routers that can act as NAS with a storage device on them?

These routers are built on a small computer with an OS (like a raspberry pi for example). They do need a small amount for the OS and then also some to store device settings, routing functions and tables, and also to do all the security functions, like firewall and intrusion detection

Well explained. And more RAM = larger cache, which helps the router handle networking for more devices.

Still using a 15 year old router. Rock solid and got it used for 30 bones. I'm sure if I wanted to blow 100 bucks, this would be pretty sweet. But it does 1000mbps wired from compy, and my ISP only provides 300 Mbps. I wonder if people just wanna do networking as a hobby , or if they think they need it.

How is it for security vulnerabilities though?
This might be a decent deal for you. For me, I've had trouble with my now older children overloading an older router while the internet connection is not tapped out fully.

I honestly believe that all WiFi 7 routers should standardize to 2.5g ethernet ports for all LAN ports and not just the WAN port

My router stopped working a few months ago during a storm. I happened to find an old one in a box from when I moved.... it was likely close to 15 years old too and it is actually doing fine. lol. BUT the only reason i am still wanting a router is because if I do download anything it's going to be much slower with this old one. My wifi is getting like 40mbps when my internet speed would normally be 10x that (and some months I had a plan that was around 25-30x that). So I just hate to not be getting what I am paying for, due to using the old router.

I never really hear of anyone having actual issues due to security issues in routers. Everyone is always saying they need top security, but when is the last time you've heard of anything happening to anyone due to router security issues?

Bro… if it's a 802.11g router, your bottleneck is not the 300mbps on the wan port, it's the 54mbps wireless. Even if it's an N router.. Replace that shit.
