ASUS RP-BE58 - Range extender, white

The ASUS RP-BE58 is a Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) dual-band range extender designed to improve wireless coverage in areas with poor reception. It offers a combined theoretical speed of 3600 Mbps, with 2882 Mbps on the 5 GHz band and 688 Mbps on the 2.4 GHz band. The device is backward compatible with 802.11ax, 802.11ac, and 802.11n standards, ensuring support for older hardware. It also uses 4096-QAM technology to increase data density, making it suitable for high-bandwidth tasks such as streaming and gaming.

The unit features a wall-plug design that connects directly to a standard power socket. Two internal antennas are housed within the casing to maintain a compact profile. A single Gigabit Ethernet port provides a wired connection for devices requiring speeds of up to 1000 Mbps. Users can configure the extender via a web-based management interface or the integrated WPS button. It also supports ASUS AiMesh, allowing it to form a unified mesh network when paired with compatible routers. Security is managed through WPA3-Personal, WPA2-Enterprise, and WPS protocols. The unit weighs 224 grams and is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux.
