Router Review Improvements

Hello, I noticed in your review of the Asus ROG GS-AX5400 router that your ping times and upload speeds in wired mode were not so good. It seems as though the internet uplink with which it was tested is limited. It might have been better if you'd tested it in a corporate setting with faster upload speeds and better latency. That way, we could see what the limits are on the router.

I had to replace a Netgear router that was surprisingly bad with Wi-Fi speeds, even though its wired performance was good. By having your internet upload as the bottleneck, we’ll never know whether the Wi-Fi has a decent performance both up and down.

Thanks as always for an informative and entertaining magazine. It was nice to see your article about quiet builds; that’s one of my main areas of interest. The DDR 5 article was great, too. I love to see this kind of stuff
