Figure 24. Router system log
While manufacturers are massively expanding their product range with support for the new IEEE 802.11ac standard, ASUS, in addition to “ac”, does not hesitate to demonstrate its dual band routers IEEE 802.11n standard, operating at frequencies of 2.4 and 5 GHz simultaneously. One of these is RT-N65U.
The benefits of such a design are quite controversial. The advantages include working in two bands simultaneously and, therefore, unlocking the potential of some connected devices. Broadcasting a 5 GHz network protects against household disturbances and most importantly - from other Wi-Fi points. After all, almost every one of us who came across this data transfer standard noticed at times bad job wireless network. This mainly happens when broadcasts that use the same channel overlap. And then you have to either change the latter, or switch to another range.
The main disadvantage of dual-band 802.11n points is the low prevalence of 5 GHz transceivers among users. Many who update their router try to bypass this replacement little blood, buying only a router in the hope of improving the quality of communication. But in order to fully achieve the desired effect, you still need to additionally purchase a 5 GHz transceiver, and this is another waste of money.
Packaging and equipment
Let's start our RT-N65U review with the box and packaging. A classically large box with a design in the best ASUS traditions.
On back side illustrations are presented that describe proprietary technologies and functions of the RT-N65U. Supplemented by a small table comparing devices in the series. Our router takes the Advanced Performance position.
The equipment is as follows:
- power unit;
- patch cord;
- stand for router;
- User's Manual;
- installation disk;
- VIP user reminder with code.
Appearance
The design of the device follows the appearance of the entire line of ASUS home routers. The body is black. The front panel has a glossy, relief outline, the play of light on which changes the character of the pattern, which looks very elegant. But touching the body with your fingers leaves marks.
The set comes with a special plastic stand. Connects to the body easily and effortlessly. The rubber base will not allow the case to slide.
There are six indicators on the front side. They are all easy to read. When the corresponding element is active, the required LED lights up in bright blue.
ASUS RT-N65U is completely devoid of external antennas. The advantages and disadvantages of such an implementation are obvious. Compact dimensions of the device and cute appearance like ASUS, they will certainly appeal to users who value a beautiful appearance. The disadvantage is obvious - a less sensitive receiver and, as a result, not very high performance.
Thanks to the already mentioned stand, the router can be installed vertically. In this position it is a little unstable, but this can be overlooked if you connect most of the wires to the device. This arrangement will save space on the table. Vertically, ASUS RT-N65U stands at a low angle, which also adds “zest” to the overall appearance.
The rear panel of the router has a classic layout. Close placement of connectors and lack of seats for external antennas significantly save space. There are few controls. One single button to reset settings and a power switch. The presence of elements on the rear panel is as follows:
- connector with power switch (19 V, 1.58 A);
- two USB 3.0;
- four Gigabit Ethernet ports;
- reset button;
- WAN port.
On the back of the router we can only see an information sticker with brief information about the device. Horizontal position This is not due to anything, the lack of rubber feet or bulges can create some inconvenience. A disadvantage can be considered complete absence mounting holes for installation in hard-to-reach places. Apparently ASUS presents this router as a desktop router.
All side walls of the RT-N65U have characteristic slots for better ventilation. During operation, the router heats up decently and air circulation will not be unnecessary.
Let's take a look at the hardware of the ASUS RT-N65U. Having opened the case, we can observe aluminum radiator, covering two metal protective frames. Only one of them, covering the processors, is covered with thermal paste.
Hidden under the frame CPU MediaTek RT3883 MIPS 74Kc architecture with a frequency of 500 MHz. He is responsible for synchronizing all controllers and communicating via PCI bus Express with USB controller 3.0. It is responsible for organizing a wireless network in the 5 GHz band, as well as a gigabit WAN interface. There is a second one on board MediaTek processor RT3352 MIPS 24K architecture, which acts as a “coprocessor”. It is entrusted with the task of ensuring the operability of the network in the 2.4 GHz band. It is not a very economically correct decision to allocate a full-fledged SoC for one Wi-Fi, but ASUS engineers considered this arrangement more justified. Gigabit switching is based on Realtek RTL8367RB. There are 128 MB of flash memory installed on board on Macronix MX25L12845EMI-10G chips. The amount of RAM is 128 MB, it is controlled by two 64 MB EtronTech EM68B16CWQD-25H chips.
Judging by the filling, we can conclude that this is a good router model. Among the shortcomings, we can note only three antennas for two bands 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. Since the point is dual-band, when the networks operate simultaneously, you will have to sacrifice the performance of one of the broadcasts.
Web interface
When we open the router’s web interface (default address http://192.168.1.1), we will be prompted to perform a quick setup. Having specified the connection type and operating mode of the wireless network, we can get to work.
Pleasantly pleased with the fact that the device constantly checks current version firmware.
After carrying out a series of simple operations to configure some parameters, we move on to home page. It is made in the form information environment with a network card. On the right top corner Status icons are always available: Internet connection status, presence of connected USB devices, guest network and print server parameters. Top part web interface will always and regardless of which tab the user is on, will display the router operating mode, firmware version and active Wi-Fi networks. You can change the system language or reboot the device at any time.
A familiar feature for ASUS routers is “ Guest network" A convenient addition that will always be relevant. Let us recall that the essence of the technology involves isolating the user, the so-called “guest”, connected to the router via Wi-Fi, from the main local network, which is useful in terms of security. This technology will be relevant in small places where people gather, for example, in a cafe, or even at home, when friends come with their mobile devices and will be asked to temporarily provide them with access to the Network.
The presence of a function for dividing traffic by priority, or Quality of Service, will allow some connections to have more high priority over others. The function will be useful if the communication channel is limited, and one of the services is critically needed and guaranteed high speed access. There are basic port profiles and transmission protocols for popular programs and applications. In this subsection you can monitor the monitoring schedule for the activity of interfaces and the network as a whole.
When there is a need to protect a number of users from using the network, the function parental controls will come in very handy.
The USB applications tab will nicely expand the standard functionality ASUS router RT-N65U. The manufacturer offers us work with several services:
- AiDisk - organizing access to files on a disk for the entire Internet;
- Servers Center - cloud disk and FTP server functions;
- “Print server”—organization of a print server;
- 3G/4G - USB modem connection for Internet connection;
- Download Master - download master;
- Media Server - playback media files.
TO this decision from ASUS the title Cloud Router applies. Work with cloud functions can be found in the AiCloud tab. To be able to access cloud file storage and data exchange, the RT-N65U user is offered application of the same name AiCloud available for mobile platforms on Android based and iOS. The idea is to connect the drive via USB to the router and share information on it both on the local network and on the global network. The setup process is simple and straightforward.
For more fine tuning You need to go to the tabs with additional parameters in the web interface. The user will have the opportunity to delve into the parameters and customize all functions to suit their requirements.
The Wireless Network tab gives you access to most possible parameters And Wi-Fi functions. It, in turn, includes subsections, each of which contains the following settings:
- general wireless network characteristics;
- WPS connection;
- bridge or mode Wi-Fi work equipment;
- MAC address filter;
- Radius authorization;
- professional network settings.
The “Local Network” tab will allow you to configure internal broadcast networks on the router. Classic set for most routers necessary functions: network addressing, routing, DHCP server and IPTV configuration.
In the Switch Control section, you can configure the broadcast storm protection system and activate hardware acceleration NAT address translation. Unfortunately, there is no way to manage Jumbo frames or packets with a large MTU.
Setting up the WAN interface has standard set tools. At this point we will be given access to a number of parameters:
- WAN interface;
- port switch;
- port forwarding;
- DMZ zone;
- DDNS service;
- additional NAT features.
IPv6 is fully supported by the ASUS RT-N65U router. Setting up all this is not difficult; each menu item is equipped with good instructions.
A VPN server will help you combine several remote workstations or simply connect all your nodes to one network.
The RT-N65U has the ability to configure a firewall. Options protective screen displayed in a separate tab. In this section you can configure the availability of the device in global network. Setting up filtering for specific sites and filters by keywords in the content of downloads, can provide some flexibility in working with the device. The use of special filters at specified times complements powerful tool to limit unauthorized access to the Internet and vice versa from the outside.
In the “Administration” item, you can change the operating parameters that are responsible for the operation of the router as a whole. For example, the sub-item “Operating mode” allows you to configure the operation of the equipment: as an access point or wireless router. The lack of a repeater function can be attributed to the disadvantages of the model.
Opening access to the ASUS RT-N65U web interface from the Internet or via Telnet is also not difficult. Updating and saving the firmware with the device configuration occurs in the same section.
The implementation of event logging in ASUS is beyond praise. The “System Log” tab is an entire section of the menu designed to display statistics on the operation of equipment and the network as a whole. Providing the ability to access logging data in the main menu is good form among manufacturers, because this is where the solution to many problems with device and network inoperability lies. In this model you can study:
- system logs;
- wireless communication information;
- DHCP protocol log;
- IPv6 operating status;
- routing tables;
- port forwarding data;
- established connections.
Functions for checking the status of hosts on the network and other network utilities are available in the “ tab Network utilities" In order to check the availability of a node, it is not necessary to type ping in the system terminal or launch cumbersome applications; this can be done on the router itself. Netstat utility and Wake-on-LAN technology will be pleasant additions to your work.
Having gone through all the stages of setting up the ASUS RT-N65U router, we can conclude that this is a classic, good-quality home router. Convenient menu and many tips when setting up will pleasantly please their owners. The menu sometimes shows translation errors, but one can hope that these gaps will be resolved a new version firmware.
Performance testing
Let us remember that ASUS RT-N65U appears to us as a hybrid solution with two SoCs from MediaTek, namely RT3883 and RT3352. The router is declared as dual-band; it operates simultaneously at frequencies of 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. The RT-N65U has three internal antennas on board - two are used for operation in the 2.4 GHz band and three antennas are used for 5 GHz.
The Wi-Fi network operates in 802.11a/b/g/n standards. In our testing, we will measure the performance of an 802.11n wireless network taking into account the load-bearing walls of a Khrushchev-era house with brickwork. Considering the features of our dual-band point, when testing the router in one band, the second was physically turned off.
The speed was recorded and checked using several methods:
- SpeedTest mini. The program was installed on a PC server, and a request was made from the PC client to measure the reception/upload speed.
- Iperf. The server part of the program was installed on the server, the client part on the client PC, and a request was made from the client command line to measure the reception/upload speed.
- Standard system tools. A 2 GB file was transferred between the server and client in each direction in turn. Speed was measured system means Windows.
During the tests, there were six “other” networks in the broadcast range, broadcasting on channels: 4, 6, 9, 11. For testing in the 2.4 GHz range, 1 channel was used at a frequency of 2412 MHz. Channel width is 40 MHz. For testing in the 5 GHz range, channel 40 was used at a frequency of 5200 MHz. Channel width is 40 MHz.
Two different transceivers are involved in testing.
High-performance solution from ASUS. The transceiver is implemented on a powerful Broadcom BCM4360 chip. Can work with Wi-Fi networks 802.11a/b/g/n/ac standard at 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. The maximum theoretical throughput in 802.11n and 802.11ac is 450 Mbps and 1300 Mbps, respectively. The device is connected via PCI Express 2.0 x1 bus. The kit includes three remote antennas that were placed on the PC case.
A compact and at the same time portable transceiver designed to replace standard Wi-Fi adapters in laptops. The device is based on the BCM43526 transceiver. Can work with Wi-Fi networks standard 802.11a/b/g/n/ac at frequencies of 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. The maximum theoretical throughput in 802.11n and 802.11ac is 300 Mbps and 866 Mbps, respectively. The device is connected via USB 2.0. There are two internal antennas on board.

- No load on the router - regular work router. Additional connections are missing.
- Load under torrent client - it was decided to additionally load the router’s CPU with independent torrent clients installed on two different laptops(connected via a LAN interface) with 10 active downloads each, to create additional load on the equipment.
The server and client PC are located in the same room. The distance of each from the ASUS RT-N65U is about 1.6 m. Such placement of equipment in an apartment is unlikely, but this placement of devices is aimed at calculating the maximum speed over Wi-Fi.
Test results:
Let's consider the results obtained. We achieved the maximum possible speed of 150 Mbit/s using the high-performance ASUS PCE-AC66 receiver. The result is far from the ideal theoretical 225 Mbit/s.
In testing with three portable devices, connected via Wi-Fi standard 802.11n at 2.4 GHz, the client was able to squeeze out 129 Mbit/s. Good result for a device that has only three antennas for two bands.
Under load on LAN interfaces, ASUS RT-N65U performed well. Only a slight drop in data transfer speed can be noted.
Accommodation option 2
The second stage of testing is a slightly more complicated option, with an increased router-server distance, and additional interference in the form of a brick wall is added. This configuration roughly resembles placing a router at home, so let's see how the ASUS RT-N65U behaves in such conditions.
Test results:
Based on the results obtained, we provide several explanations. The test is similar to the previous one, only a thick load-bearing brick wall, 40 cm thick, appeared in front of us.
The client's computer with the ASUS PCE-AC66 receiver was able to achieve a speed of 134 Mbit/s. When working in a similar combination, but with three portable devices connected via Wi-Fi in the 802.11n standard at 2.4 GHz, the maximum data transfer speed was 122 Mbps. Two networks running simultaneously different frequencies and using three common antennas, showed good results.
Under load from the LAN interface, the ASUS RT-N65U showed a significant drop in speed in the “802.11n (5GHz) Wi-Fi to LAN” test.
Accommodation option 3
The most difficult test for equipment is the third placement option. The network packet has to pass through a 40 cm thick brick wall twice - from the client to the router and from the router to the server.
Test results:
The maximum result of 60 Mbit/s at 5 GHz and 43 Mbit/s in the 2.4 GHz range is the limit of the ASUS RT-N65U.
We can conclude that operating in the 5 GHz band provides some advantage.
Conclusion
The ASUS RT-N65U dual-band router visited our laboratory. IN this moment This router has a rather controversial position on the market. Now gaining particular popularity new standard IEEE 802.11ac, whose capabilities significantly speed up throughput wireless network. The existence of IEEE 802.11n in the 5 GHz range is justified not so much by the increase in speed indicators, but by the very fact of avoiding interference caused by other Wi-Fi points.
The appearance of the device corresponds to the general style of the line of routers from ASUS. So as not to be verbose - stylish, beautiful, unusual. Internal antennas only emphasize the sophistication of the model. Heavy weight of 368 grams and the presence of a stand, both for compact solution gives the user some confidence. Of course, a massive aluminum heatsink covers two SoC processors. RT-N65U works with 802.11a/b/g/n standards and broadcasts in two bands 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz simultaneously. All this is managed by good stuffing from MediaTek.
Web-based control system in the best ASUS traditions. The classic “face” allows you to configure many parameters. Menu quick setup will help people with limited knowledge of networks not to get confused. Experienced users should appreciate the good depth of settings for all parameters. We are pleased with some of the model’s features: “Guest Network”, AiCloud, detailed event logging.
As for performance, it is at a good level. This is especially noticeable when the router is subject to additional loads on the LAN interface. In progress ASUS testing RT-N65U showed maximum speed transmission equal to 150 Mbit/s and 95 Mbit/s for 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz, respectively. The result for the 2.4 GHz range can be considered more than worthy, considering high load on the range and employment of “full” for fast transfer channel. In testing with big amount household interference (location option 3), the router showed its weaknesses, like any other product with internal antennas. As a dual-band solution, at first glance, the ASUS RT-N65U seemed a little ill-conceived. Three antennas for two bands did not immediately inspire confidence, but tests showed that the router coped well with the assigned tasks.
ASUS RT-N65U is the embodiment of a full-featured home router with everyone useful features. Good performance and the presence of two bands will allow you to avoid interference from others Wi-Fi points, the main thing is not to forget to purchase a 5 GHz transceiver. For those who are not ready to pay a significant amount for a router that supports the IEEE 802.11ac standard, the RT-N65U is a good choice.
Router with support wired networks Gigabit Ethernet and wireless Wi-Fi. The RT-N65U model represents the implementation of modern network technologies in the form of an elegant, beautiful device. With its simplified setup process, this router will appeal to all users who want to take advantage of high-speed wired and wireless connections. computer networks at home.
