I was wondering if anyone know whether I can use this

https://www.pbtech.co.nz/product/NETAS4613/ASUS-ZenWiFi-Pro-ET12-12-Stream-Wi-Fi-6E-Mesh-Wi-F?qr=GShopping&gclid=CjwKCAjwoIqhBhAGEiwArXT7K5qiP_UJxg1kvPjmw3M9MoiRdmyFDRD_zB0TJTewt2He-BaOjMC0WRoCNd0QAvD_BwE

to replace both my asus router for spark fibre?

Does the zenwifi need to be linked to a router for it to work?

Yes it will work fine for standalone.

But at 2 grand no I wouldn't do that personally.

yea i know

I'm wanting to get a zenwifi and that was just one product I was looking at.

$2k is very steep

I think TP-link does something thats half the cost

Even half the cost is a no. You don’t need to spend huge money on a router.

What are you even trying to achieve here?
