ASUS JAPAN, Ltd. announces the TUF-AX3000, the first gaming router in the TUF Gaming series.
High-speed wireless LAN with Wi-Fi 6 support
The TUF-AX3000 is a dual-band Wi-Fi router with 160 MHz channel width, 1024-QAM, and the latest technologies OFDMA and MU-MIMO.
It delivers 574Mbps in the 2.4GHz band and 2402Mbps in the 5GHz band, 2.5 times faster than a typical 802.11ac 2x2 dual-band Wi-Fi router.
Equipped with a wired LAN port dedicated for gaming
The TUF-AX3000 is equipped with three wired LAN ports.
By connecting a PC or game console to this port, gaming packets are preferentially processed. This enables smooth playback.
3-step port forwarding
When the access restriction (NAT) of the connection port is affected and the problem of not being able to connect to the game or play as a host occurs, the following steps can be taken.
- 1. select the game to play
- 2. select the gaming device
- 3. activate the device
The "3-Step Port Forwarding" feature allows you to open a port in three simple steps.
This allows you to start online play smoothly.
Preset communication priority selection
"Adaptive QoS" allows users to select communication priorities based on preset settings.
For example, "game communication during gameplay" or "media communication when watching videos" can be prioritized according to the situation without complicated settings.
AiMesh Support
When multiple ASUS routers are used at home, AiMesh, a unique ASUS feature, allows multiple routers to be connected together to create a Wi-Fi network.
Seamless roaming technology eliminates the need to switch networks anywhere in the house, making Wi-Fi access seamless and stress-free.
Business-Level High Security
AiProtection, which uses Trend Micro technology, blocks access to malicious websites on the Internet.
It blocks communication in the event of unauthorized access, and blocks external communication from devices infected with viruses and other malware. Protects devices and personal data from Internet threats.
The system provides security for safe use of company PCs at home when teleworking.
Parental controls can also be used to restrict children's Internet access and application use, protecting them from malicious sites.
