### 1/5 — Spy app

*2023-12-07*

It keeps popping up a window that says I need to turn on location settings for it to be able to map my devices. The exact message: “ ASUS Extender needs your location permission to find ASUS router(s) in the environment. Please go to Setting
-> Apps -> ASUS Extender to allow access to this device's location.”

**Developer response:** Dear user, 
Due to the limitation of mobile devices, it is necessary to ask for your permission to access the location and find the possible ASUS device around you. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

### 1/5 — Crash after crash

*2023-10-29*

### 1/5 — Problème

*2023-10-17*

L'application se ferme constamment, et il est impossible de la configurer comme indiqué dans le manuel peu clair fourni lors de l'achat du RP-AX56 Extended, censé être convivial. Il est nécessaire de revoir la simplicité de l'installation et la suite des opération. Je suis très insatisfait de l’application extended de asus d'autant plus qu'aucun support et manuel en français n'était inclus dans la boîte, ce qui est anormal. Je pense qu'une révision de l'application est nécessaire, car il n'est pas normal de ne pas pouvoir utiliser toutes les fonctionnalités sans que l’app ferme seule. 🤬

### 1/5 — Instable

*2023-07-05, version 1.0.37*

Se coupe toute seule lors de la mise en place.
Decevant surtout pour une marque aussi réputée.

### 1/5 — not working

*2026-07-26*

as of right now, the connection maps says that it's fine. However, the extender says failed to connect and asked me to enter my account and password. I keep entering the correct details and input the correct captchas, but it just keeps getting locked.

### 1/5 — Horrible AP

*2026-07-14*

I get logged out multiple times a day and then it tells me my login is incorrect and won’t let me in so I keep having to force restart and start from scratch…… Absolutely ridiculous

### 1/5 — Кривое приложение

*2026-06-11*

как можно было так криво написать приложение? Все попытки установить репетир закончились сбоем на последнем этапе. Пол дня промучался, затем с помощью ИИ установил через веб приложение

### 1/5 — not working for iOS 26.2

*2026-01-06*

Inoperative for iOS 26.2

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work- app  in unfunctional

*2025-08-09*

All I was trying to do is setup my new extender and the app is completely unusable. It work into you get to connect to wife screen and then it just freeze and won’t let you move on I’ve tried deleting the app, I’ve tried restarting my phone. Just doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Desastre

*2025-06-30, version 1.0.0.0.42*

No hay manera de configurar el rp-ax58

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-06-06*

Simply does not work: an exercise in frustration that sends users on a merry-go-round of resetting the unit to factory default, entering network passwords umpteen times, creating new usernames and passwords — only to restart the device after which, the device will recognize the modem, agree that there is internet connectivity as far as the modem, but the repeater / extender is incapable of providing internet connectivity itself.

Have tried this right next to the modem, within 2 meters of the modem, within 3 meters of the modem with no result at all.

Having “factory reset” the unit, find that a network name I assigned is preserved, which doesn’t seem possible if the factory reset functioned.

The app is incapable of updating drivers or firmware; and English instructions are semi-literate.

So unless this is a clever way for hackers to get your network password, the app is entirely useless.

Will be returning this unit and deleting this app.

### 1/5 — 打开“设置扩展器”，然后像个电子说明书，没有实际功能。

*2024-09-12*

打开“设置扩展器”，然后像个电子说明书，没有实际功能。

### 1/5 — Asus rog strix gs-ax3000 vs rp-ax58

*2024-02-06*

После последнего обновления прошивки в январе 2024 г. на rp-ax58 расширитель перестал работать как aimesh устройство…роутер gs-ax3000  его видит, но добавить не может…теперь rp-ax58 работает только как репитер и то получается только расширить через это приложение…больше в жизне не свяжусь с asus…все испортили… не послушал людей лучше бы с кинетик заморачивался

### 1/5 — crashes are very often

*2023-12-20, version 1.0.37*

The app is barely usable. It crashes after every opening, login and touch. Unusable.

### 5/5 — Did what it’s supposed to do

*2026-02-12*

I was able to easily add my WiFi Extender

### 5/5 — Działa

*2021-02-05, version 1.0.35*

Większość opinii to chyba czysty brak wiedzy jak obsłużyć aplikacje. Kupiłem, zamontowałem aplikacja zrobiła resztę i jest super. Czytajcie instrukcje kochani najpierw 😁

### 5/5 — 好用

*2016-11-09, version 1.0.9*

好用

### 5/5 — 介面好看

*2016-11-01, version 1.0.9*

不錯用，有進步空間

### 4/5 — Asus

*2020-02-14*

У меня работает норма !! Сигнал правда плавает но в целом доволен !!

### 3/5 — Fluky app

*2022-12-31*

The ASUS Extender app works well when it works.  It is handy for quickly adding an extender to an existing WiFi network.  However, it exits randomly and appeared to lose track of an extender when I changed the “nickname.”  It is also a quick place to lookup names and settings from your phone, but there is limited functionality.  For example, a signal meter with a graph and averaging would help with positioning the extender.

**Developer response:** Dear user, 
Please update to the latest version and do let us know if you encounter any further difficulties. Your input is precious as we strive to improve your experience. Thank you!

### 3/5 — 一打开就闪退，根本用不了，希望几时fix

*2018-07-12*

本来挺好用，后来一打开就闪退，根本用不了，希望几时fix

### 2/5 — Surprisingly bad

*2025-05-02*

App has an antiquated feel. Failed numerous times during setup. Very limited range of function. They must want you to use ai-Mesh or WPS to setup. But no customization using those methods.

### 2/5 — Constant crashing

*2023-04-05*

Not sure what the purpose of this app is. The only thing it’s shows me is if my extender is connected, but when I try to do anything like maybe touch an icon so I can see the status, the app crashes. No way of seeing the list of devices connected to the extender. No way of updating firmware.

### 2/5 — Crashes
