I'm not convinced, most of their features need deep packet inspection, and smart queue management to improve pings is also very compute heavy, I really doubt that anemic system config can achieve the speeds you've shown while also those features being enabled at the same time. Even much more powerful processors can sometimes choke a bit with those.
I agree with your point, however, it's not supposed to keep it's ping improving features working effectively while also maximizing it's transfer speed. While gaming, you'll have only a few Mbps of transfer at most. The speed test was just to test the Wi-Fi throughput separately. Also, I didn't do in depth tests with different devices, but I read other publications doing testing which did show that it's ping improving features were effective, so I didn't let my skepticism dismiss it's effectiveness. I've also received mail from them that a new update is incoming which addresses my issues with this. 'Gaming routers' are a weird category with questionable utility in general, but as a reviewer, I wouldn't want to pre-judge them.
@@TechReflexOh ok. Planning to buy a good gaming router. Asus Tuf Gaming AX5400 and this seemed to fall in my budget but then I realized AX5400 has been out of stock from everywhere and this ships from UK and I have heard horror stories like paying upwards of 100% as custom duty.
