One important aspect I noticed during these measurements is that the network throughput on the 2.4GHz band is not as stable as on the other bands. It varies from low to high speeds, but is not very stable. This is an aspect that could be improved in future updates to the ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16, as it negatively affects the average speed you get when transferring data on the 2.4GHz band.

My tests showed that the ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16 provides good signal bahrain telegram data quality on the 2.4GHz band with a fast internet connection. However, the wireless data transfer is not very stable, which reduces the average speed you get when transferring data from one device to another when connected to the 2.4GHz band.
How ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16 Works on 5GHz
I switched to the 5 GHz band and took the same measurements. On this frequency, the ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16 used the Wi-Fi 7 standard, while the ASUS ROG Rapture GT-AXE11000 and TP-Link Deco XE75 used Wi-Fi 6. Signal strength, measured with Netspot, was excellent in every room of my apartment.
Signal level in the 5 GHz range
Unfortunately, my internet connection is limited to a maximum of 1 Gbps for downloads and somewhere between 700 and 800 Mbps for uploads. The ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16 is equipped with the ports and hardware needed to take advantage of super-fast internet connections of 2.5 Gbps or even 10 Gbps. Unfortunately, such connections are not available in my area. Because of this, using Wi-Fi 7 on the ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16 did not result in a significant speed improvement, as my internet connection acted as a bottleneck.
