Wireless Bands for Compatible Devices
GT-BE98 combines 2.4 GHz, two 5 GHz bands and a 6 GHz band with 4×4 transmit/receive on each. Listed maximum link rates are 1376 Mbps, 5764 Mbps on each 5 GHz band and 11529 Mbps on 6 GHz. Wi-Fi 7 features include 4096-QAM and channel widths up to 320 MHz for compatible devices and supported regional operation.
Wired Connections Around Your Setup
The wired layout includes a 10G WAN/LAN port, a 2.5G WAN/LAN port, a separate 10G LAN port, three 2.5G LAN ports and one Gigabit LAN port. USB 3.2 Gen 1 and USB 2.0 are also provided. This range of interfaces lets you plan high-speed local connections alongside an internet uplink and other supported network equipment.
Hardware and Physical Design
A 2.6 GHz quad-core processor works with 2 GB of RAM and 256 MB of flash. Eight external antennas form part of the quad-band design. ASUS lists dimensions of 350.41 × 350.41 × 220.6 mm and a weight of 2000 g, giving you concrete measurements to check before choosing a position for the router and its antennas.
Gaming and Traffic Management
Game Boost, OpenNAT and a gaming port sit alongside Adaptive QoS and traffic monitoring. These tools provide ways to prioritize devices and review network activity within a busy gaming setup. Configure the options around your own applications, then use the available traffic information to understand how the connection is shared when several devices are active at once.
Expand with Compatible AiMesh Equipment
AiMesh support allows the router to work as a primary AiMesh router or a node in a compatible ASUS mesh network. It also supports access point operation. Choose the mode that matches your existing equipment and intended layout, then place the router where the wireless connection and wired uplink can serve the devices you want to connect.
Network Controls in One Place
AiProtection Pro, parental controls and guest-network settings are listed in the router’s features. VPN client and server options add ways to configure supported remote connections. Wireless figures are maximum link rates; actual throughput depends on clients and network conditions. Available bands and channel widths also depend on regional settings, so select the supported options during setup.
Match the Network Device to Your Connection
Check the required wired or wireless connection, power arrangement and coverage needs. Confirm the intended role and compatibility with the existing network before choosing another device. Compare related options such as ASUS ZenWiFi XD5 AX3000 Whole-Home Mesh WiFi, 3-Pack White or ASUS USB-N10 NANO B1 Wi-Fi Dongle, 150Mbps, keeping the exact model and configuration in the decision.
