The New Era of Home WiFi

The growing number of connected personal and IoT devices has led to an overall increase in network density that is pushing the limits of the current WiFi standard. The latest WiFi 6 (802.11ax) provides future-proof technologies, higher network efficiency, faster Wi-Fi speeds, greater coverage and improved battery life for connected devices, providing a significantly better networking experience for users.

Warp-speed WiFi

RT-AX88U Pro is a 4x4 dual-band WiFi router that provides 160MHz bandwidth and 1024-QAM for dramatically faster wireless connections. With a total networking speed of about 6000Mbps — 1148Mbps on the 2.4GHz band and 4804Mbps on the 5GHz band — RT-AX88U Pro is 2.3X faster than 802.11ac 4x4 dual-band routers.

Beyond Performance

RT-AX88U Pro is powered by a 2.0 GHz quad-core 64-bit CPU, giving it the performance to handle even the most demanding gaming network. It delivers maximum network throughput by 18%* for lightning-fast, accelerating data transfers and optimizing your gaming experience.

Flexible network ports functions

RT-AX88U Pro has two dual-function WAN/LAN 2.5 Gbps Ethernet ports that support link aggregation and load balancing, giving you the flexibility to give massive bandwidth to connected devices or take advantage of ultra-high-speed internet connections.

Give your Online Gaming a Double Boost

RT-AX88U Pro's Adaptive QoS prioritizes game packets for smoother online play. It also has built-in wtfast® to seek out and secure the shortest possible path between your gaming device and the game server, minimizing game ping and lag.
