A year or two ago, I purchased an Asus RT-AC51U "Dual-Band AC750 WiFi 4-port Gigabit Router with USB device sharing"
The WAN port is 100mbps
The LAN ports are 100mbps
The Wifi is AC750 (WiFi 5 capable of max of about 433mbps)
I purchased this because their page stated it was a gigabit router, and I planned to upgrade my service to gigabit eventually. Which I recently did. I'm enjoying my 100mbps connection still.

@yestergearpc always check the tech specs on the website is what I've learned. Screenshot is from the tech specs link of the page you shared. (Press tiny down arrow in top right and you get menu for tech specs and other things)

@littletranspunk I'm aware. It was mentioned in the thread. Maybe the federation fun left that part of the thread out ;)

@yestergearpc Yeah, this is pretty cray. I can't remember the last time even a cheaper ASUS router like a AC1900 came with Fast Ethernet. It is, as you say, 2020+! I doubt I'd have read into it either.
Very crappy of them to hide a nickel in savings to keep the RT-AC51U in FE.

Now, had I done my homework, the specs page states this clearly. However, I purchased based upon the title alone, expecting all the ports to be gigabit, as it was 2020 afterall... Who still puts 100mbps chips in their devices?
Asus.. That's who.. Then put gigabit in the title for suckers who only read the title.
