One of the features of gaming devices is that they glow.
Keyboards and mice, of course, but it has become commonplace for routers to light up as well.
ASUS has a new gaming router that not only glows, but also offers high performance.
The RT-AX82U is designed to look like a spaceship!
Stylish design with RGB
The most striking thing about the RT-AX82U is its design.
The most striking thing about the RT-AX82U is its stylish design, which is reminiscent of a spaceship.
The AURA RGB lighting function allows you to set the lighting on the front of the main unit to your own preference.
Combined with the shape of the main unit, it looks like it's going to beam something out!
A high-performance router that prioritizes gaming
Although the distinctive design tends to catch the eye, a gaming router must have specifications that allow smooth play of recent high-load games.
ASUS has released many gaming devices, so you can rest assured that there will be no compromise on this point.
Supports the latest Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) wireless standard for high-speed communication and low latency.
Even with a wireless connection, stable and high-speed communication is possible.
The ASUS Router app can be used to set the device to mobile gaming mode.
Enjoy comfortable game play on your smartphone or tablet.
The ASUS Router App also features a " Traffic Analyzer " that allows you to check the current usage status in real time, network diagnostics, and a "Network Key" function.
The " Wi-Fi Sharing " feature allows users to share network names and encryption keys via email and messaging applications, and to instantly create network names and encryption keys for guests.
One of the four wired ports on the main unit is a gaming LAN port.
This port can be wired to accelerate game communication and reduce lag caused by network latency.
Adaptive QoS allows for priority forwarding of configured communications.
If game communications are wired, game communications can be prioritized even in situations where multiple devices are mixed together.
Presets can be used according to the network environment, so there is no need to make complicated connections.
Wi-Fi 6's 5 GHz band provides even better gameplay, with a maximum speed of 4804 Mbps, which is more than double that of a typical Wi-Fi 5 4x4 dual-band Wi-Fi router.
It also supports AiMesh, which connects ASUS routers together to create a Wi-Fi network.
If you use other AiMesh-enabled ASUS routers, you can easily build a network that covers your entire house.
AiProtection, a security feature that uses Trend Micro Smart Home Network technology, provides business-grade security.
It also supports the latest Wi-Fi security standard WPA3, so you can use Wi-Fi with peace of mind.
