Amazon is currently offering the ASUS ROG Rapture Tri-Band Wi-Fi 6E Gaming Router for $399 shipped. Normally going for $500, this 20% discount, or solid $101 price drop marks a return to the all-time low price we’ve seen only once before. This was one of the first routers on the commercial market to support the new Wi-Fi 6E standard with its 6GHz channel that allows for even faster wireless internet. The ROG Rapture is capable of 11,000Mb/s of throughput with this new standard including up to five total LAN Ethernet ports with that fifth port being rated for 2.5GbE for either LAN or WAN from your ISP. The other four LAN ports are normal gigabit connections for connecting consoles, TVs, and other hard-wired devices.
