Looking for a Wi-Fi router that has it all? Asus' latest RT-AC68U will fit the bill.

The Asus RT-AC68U Dual-band Wireless-AC1900 Gigabit Router is an excellent performer and shows that Asus's 802.11ac technology has matured since the release of the RT-AC66U. While it's stellar in 802.11ac mode, those with 802.11n-only clients may not see much benefit over its predecessor.
A sleek design and lightning-fast speeds make the ASUS RT-AC68U the premium Wi-Fi router to beat.
The router has come a long way in such a short space of time.
