The New Era of Home Connectivity

AX3000 Dual-Band Gigabit Wi-Fi 6 Router

Wi-Fi 6 Upgrades Everything

The latest generation of Wi-Fi technology brings faster speeds, less lag, and higher capacity, enabling more simultaneous connections on your home network.

Incredible Speed

Drastically improved speeds enable streaming, fast downloading, and gaming—all at the same time. 5 GHz with 160 MHz channel support doubles the bandwidth, enabling 8K video without lag.

More Responsive Experiences

Less Loading Wheels

Enjoy smooth gaming, video streaming, and live feed simultaneously. OFDMA makes your WiFi stronger by allowing multiple clients to share one band at the same time, which cuts latency and jittering.

Powerful CPU and High Memory

Connect More without Dropping Speed

Behind the Wi-Fi 6 technology structure are the advanced Qualcomm chipset and high memory. Enjoy fast connections with minimal latency even under a heavy load of transmission. Every click for website links and online playback on your laptop and phone just responds quicker.

Improved Cooling Design Consistent Full Output

No heat ups, no throttles. A larger heat sink and refined case design cool the WiFi 6 system and enable your network to stay at top speed in more versatile environments.

WiFi Coverage Throughout Your Home

4x high-performance external antennas boost WiFi signals throughout your home. Beamforming technology detects devices and concentrates wireless signal strength towards them, especially for previously hard to reach outlets.

USB 3.0 Ports

Easily share files between connected devices by plugging into an external drive. You can even make it your personal cloud storage and access it from outside securely.

Flexibly Create Whole Home Mesh WiFi

If you have any dead zones at home, just add another EasyMesh-compatible router/range extender to further form your whole home multi-gigabit mesh WiFi. No more searching for a stable connection.

•  WiFi Dead Zone Killer - Eliminate weak signal areas with WiFi coverage for the whole house.
•  Smart Roaming - Uninterrupted streaming when moving around your home.
•  One WiFi Name - No more switching WiFi network names.
