The ROG Rapture GT-BE98 is a quad-band WiFi 7 gaming router engineered for next-generation networks. Delivering combined speeds of up to 25 Gbps, dual 10Gbps ports, and advanced gaming optimization, it is built for competitive play, high-demand streaming, and multi-device environments that require consistent, ultra-fast connectivity.
Built on the WiFi 7 (IEEE 802.11be) standard, the GT-BE98 expands on WiFi 6 and 6E with 320 MHz channel bandwidth, 4K-QAM data encoding, and Multi-Link Operation. These technologies combine to deliver faster throughput, reduced latency, and improved reliability across demanding gaming and streaming workloads.
The quad-band architecture distributes traffic across 6 GHz, dual 5 GHz, and 2.4 GHz bands, supporting up to sixteen simultaneous WiFi streams. This ensures smooth gameplay, stable 4K/8K streaming, and responsive browsing across multiple connected devices.
WiFi 7 introduces 320 MHz channels, effectively doubling transmission capacity compared to 160 MHz implementations. This expanded bandwidth allows larger volumes of data to move simultaneously, supporting bandwidth-intensive applications and future-ready networking.
4096-QAM technology increases data density by encoding more bits per signal. This results in improved transmission efficiency and up to 20% higher data rates compared to previous WiFi generations under optimal conditions.
MLO enables devices to connect across multiple frequency bands at once, aggregating bandwidth for higher speeds and improved reliability. Traffic is intelligently allocated across bands to reduce latency and maintain stable connections during competitive gameplay.
A quad-core 2.6 GHz processor powers the GT-BE98, providing the performance required for 10 Gbps networking, cloud gaming, AI-driven applications, and heavy multi-user traffic without compromise.
Eight external antennas and sixteen internal dipole elements work alongside independent high-power amplifiers to strengthen signal coverage. A dual-feed antenna design enhances efficiency and signal isolation, helping eliminate dead zones across large environments.
An upgraded aluminum heat plate with nanocarbon coating, enlarged heatsinks, a precision vent layout, and a raised two-centimeter stand improve airflow and heat dissipation. This thermal structure maintains stable performance under sustained loads.
Dual 10Gbps ports unlock ultra-fast wired networking for gaming systems, workstations, and NAS servers. Quad 2.5Gbps LAN ports provide additional high-speed flexibility, while LAN aggregation enables up to 20 Gbps wired throughput for demanding setups.
The 10Gbps LAN port is configured as a prioritized gaming port, automatically accelerating traffic for connected gaming devices to reduce latency and stabilize competitive sessions.
Multiple WAN configurations include 10Gbps WAN, 2.5Gbps WAN, and USB WAN support. 4G and 5G mobile tethering ensures backup connectivity for uninterrupted online access.
Gaming traffic is optimized from device to game server through a layered acceleration system. This reduces ping, improves routing efficiency, and enhances overall responsiveness for PC gaming.
Through the ASUS Router mobile app, users can prioritize specific mobile games instantly. This feature minimizes lag and stabilizes connections for handheld and smartphone gaming.
OpenNAT simplifies port forwarding for legacy consoles and modern handheld devices, improving matchmaking speeds and reducing lobby wait times.
VPN Fusion allows simultaneous standard and VPN connections without slowing gaming traffic. Support for WireGuard® and site-to-site VPN ensures secure, high-speed encrypted connections across networks.
AiProtection Pro, powered by Trend Micro, safeguards the network against phishing, ransomware, and malicious attacks. Commercial-grade protection helps secure connected devices and sensitive data across the entire home network.
