hardware type: Wireless Router
date added: 2019-01-07
Linksys MR8300 is a Tri-Band router that delivers wireless speeds of up to 2.2Gbps (N400 + AC867 + AC867) throughout your home.

The MR8300 delivers a dedicated signal to each connected device using MU-MIMO technology, so the entire family can enjoy simultaneous 4K streaming, online gaming, and more.

With built-in Mesh WiFi, this router is designed to scale to your household's WiFi needs. As your WiFi needs grow, simply add a Linksys Velop node to expand your coverage. Velop nodes all work seamlessly together with the MR8300, so there's no need to manually switch between networks.

Setup is easy - simply connect your router to your modem, download the Linksys app, name your network and choose a password.

Guest Access allows you to create a separate, password-protected WiFi network for up to 50 guests and easily share the password.

Parental Controls let you ensure a safe Internet experience for your kids - even when you're away from home. Restrict access to inappropriate or distracting content, control usage, and block specific devices from accessing the Internet.
