Asus ZenWiFi BD5 Outdoor Wi-Fi 7 extender review: Great outdoor wireless performance, as long as you use an Ethernet backhaul

The Asus ZenWiFi BD5 Outdoor is a dual-band Wi-Fi 7 satellite designed for outdoor use, offering good wireless coverage for your yard. It is compatible with Asus routers supporting AiMesh and features a simple tower design with 2.5 GbE ports for Power over Ethernet. Setting it up with the Asus Router app is straightforward, and performance testing showed that using an Ethernet backhaul significantly improves throughput compared to a wireless connection. While wireless performance may vary, the ZenWiFi BD5 Outdoor is a solid option for expanding outdoor coverage in your AiMesh network, especially when using a wired backhaul.
