ASUS TUF Gaming BE6500 Dual-Band WiFi 7 Gigabit Router
Four 2.5GbE ports and a 1.5 GHz quad-core CPU keep the network steady in device-dense homes.
The ASUS TUF Gaming BE6500 is a dual-band WiFi 7 (802.11be) gaming router rated at 688 Mbps on 2.4 GHz and 5764 Mbps on 5 GHz. Its wired side is all 2.5 Gigabit: one WAN and three LAN ports, plus a USB 3.2 Gen1 port for storage or a 4G LTE dongle. It also joins an AiMesh network when one router cannot cover the whole home.
WiFi 7 with Multi-Link Operation and 4K-QAM
WiFi 7 clients can use 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz simultaneously through MLO, so the link survives channel switching and band congestion. 4096-QAM modulation packs more data per transmission than WiFi 6, with channel widths up to 160 MHz. OFDMA, MU-MIMO and Airtime Fairness share the air among many simultaneous clients.
Four 2.5GbE ports and a dedicated Gaming Port
Every wired port runs at 2.5 Gigabit, so console, desktop PC and NAS do not compete for a single fast link. The Gaming Port prioritises traffic from whatever is plugged into it with no manual setup, while Dual WAN and 3G/4G LTE dongle support provide a backup line.
Game Boost and Adaptive QoS for lower ping
Adaptive QoS allocates bandwidth by traffic type, while Gear Accelerator and OpenNAT game profiles take care of port and NAT-type issues. Traffic Analyzer shows which device loads the line, by day, week and month.
Subscription-free AiProtection Pro and built-in VPN
Protection covers two-way IPS, malicious site blocking and isolation of an infected device. Parental controls handle up to 64 profiles with web and app filters plus time scheduling. The built-in VPN server and client support WireGuard, OpenVPN, IPSec, L2TP and PPTP.
AiMesh coverage expansion
The unit can act as the primary AiMesh router or as an AiMesh node alongside other compatible ASUS devices, under a single network name and password. Access Point, Repeater and Media Bridge modes are also available, and the chassis supports wall mounting.
