Design

The Asus RT-AC55U gets the same iconic design that I acquired accustomed to because of the days of the past of the RT-N66U, which later on got borrowed and slightly adapted by the RT-AC68U and finally, it influenced the dynamic case of the RT-AC87U. Much like the RT-N66U, the RT-AC55U includes a rectangular entire body, with exactly the same gemstone shaped texture at the top (that will not maintain fingerprints) and the dark band which keeps the Asus logo design. The RT-AC68U is slightly bigger than the RT-AC55U, which steps 8.1 x 5.8 x 1.4 ins and, due to its little proportions (weighed against almost every other routers in the marketplace), it won’t become really difficult to locate a spot for this. Furthermore, since it appears like a jewelry package, it will merge very easily with the environment. But, if the area is important and you also can’t pay for to reduce even an in. (usual scenario inside workplaces), the RT-AC55U could be installed on the wall.
