Wi-Fi 7 throughput with 4096-QAM
Operating on the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, this router achieves data rates of up to 2882 Mbps on the 5 GHz band and up to 688 Mbps on the 2.4 GHz band. By integrating 4096-QAM modulation, the router packs data more densely compared to older Wi-Fi standards, increasing transmission efficiency. Combined with support for 20, 40, 80, and 160 MHz bandwidth channels, it ensures that high-bandwidth activities like 4K streaming and large file transfers run smoothly across your home network.
Multi-gigabit 2.5G WAN connectivity for high-speed internet
To support modern high-speed internet connections, the router is equipped with a dedicated 2.5G WAN port. This port removes the bottleneck between your modem and router, allowing you to fully utilize multi-gigabit fibre plans. For local wired devices, the router features four 1G LAN ports, providing stable, low-latency connections for gaming consoles, desktop PCs, smart TVs, and network-attached storage units.
Quad-core processing for stable multi-device handling
At the core of the router is a 2.0 GHz quad-core processor, paired with 512 MB RAM and 128 MB of flash memory. This hardware configuration provides the processing power required to manage multiple simultaneous connections without performance degradation. Four external antennas work alongside 2x2 transmit/receive paths on both bands, utilizing Beamforming and OFDMA technologies to focus signals directly toward connected devices for improved range and stability.
Scalable AiMesh coverage and robust network security
The router features ASUS AiMesh technology, allowing you to connect it with other compatible ASUS routers to create a unified, whole-home mesh network. It also includes comprehensive security features like AiProtection Pro and robust VPN options. The built-in VPN server and client support protocols such as WireGuard, OpenVPN, IPSec, and PPTP, while Instant Guard provides secure remote access when you are away from home. Families can also take advantage of advanced parental controls, including safe browsing filters and customisable internet time scheduling.
