One minor downside is the lack of WTFast (a gaming private network service) integration, which some higher-end Asus routers have featured. This includes a Gear Accelerator that can prioritize gaming devices "For the best gaming experience." A "Mobile Game Mode" is also available, but this requires downloading the Asus Router App to the mobile device. There's also a games section of the setup. The router is also fully backward compatible to 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5) and 802.11n (Wi-Fi 4) devices.
