ASUS Republic of Gamers recently unveiled the ROG Rapture GT-BE19000AI, the world’s first AI router. In a world where gaming, streaming, and smart home devices requires more breakthrough intelligence, platform-level flexibility, and next-generation performance, the GT-BE19000AI shines by offering intelligence, automation, and reliability.
With a Built-in neural processing unit, the ROG Rapture GT-BE19000AI is the first router that comes with a built-in AI core:
The AI core is complemented with a quad-core CPU, 4GB of DDR4, and 32GB of onboard storage. Unlike conventional routers that rely solely on the CPU, the GT-BE19000AI offers an integrated system that provides dedicated compute resources for Docker apps and related workloads.
Being the first router to run containerized applications natively, the GT-BE19000AI includes an integrated Docker Engine with CLI and Compose support. 32GB of onboard storage for applications and a built-in AI board rounds out the remarkable features of the GT-BE19000AI. Edge computing becomes a reality with advanced users deploying automation, AI services, or IoT management directly on the router. Users can control devices and smart home management through this router that functions as a central hub that previous mainline routers could not achieve.

By providing device detection, adaptive QoE for intelligent traffic prioritization, and GTNet routing, GT-BE19000AI’s AI algorithms produce real-time optimization. AI Game Boost has been proven to reduce latency by up to 34%.
WiFi Insight is a feature than continuously scans for WiFi and non-WiFi interference across all channels and issues network health reports as a result. GT-BE19000AI provides full-spectrum analysis and automated channel switching to control hidden interference sources, especially those from congested conditions.
Tri-band WiFi 7 320MHz channels and 4096-QAM provides fast 19Gbps wireless speeds. Performance is enhanced by other router features as well:
Meanwhile, dual 10G Ethernet ports and four 2.5G Ethernet ports provide a total wired capacity of up to 31Gbps. This router also supports 20Gbps link aggregation for high-demand scenarios. WiFi 7 expands network efficiency and capacity, while the advanced wired design ensures that the router can handle extreme data demands such as gaming, streaming, and content creation.
The ROG Rapture GT-BE19000AI advanced cooling is bolstered by a 30% thicker aluminum plate and nanocarbon coating, improving heat dissipation by 18%. AI board has a heatsink and thermal pads to improve cooling and improve AI performance.
Guest Network Pro is an enhanced version of Guest Network allows users to create up to five SSIDs, supporting gaming, IoT, VPN, and guest access:
It enables different access permissions, bandwidth management, and content filtering for each network, and it even includes a dedicated network for IoT devices. This provides users with an efficient, secure, and easy-to-manage networking solution. Meanwhile, the Client Insight feature monitors the connection status of devices on the network.
A security feature, AiProtection includes state-of-the-art defenses that give users enterprise-level security in the home. It monitors the security and safety of a home network by using built-in ad and tracker blocking for safer browsing.
