Linksys WRT3200ACM

details: AC3200 MU-MIMO Gigabit Wi-Fi Router
hardware type: Wireless Router
date added: 2017-01-16
updated: 2017-01-28
The WRT3200ACM is a simultaneous dual band (2.4 + 5 GHz) router, providing wireless transmission speeds of up to 3200Mbps (N600 + AC2600).

Beamforming technology optimizes performance and reduces interference by focusing wireless signal to connected devices.

Tri-Stream 160 technology doubles the bandwidth of the 5 GHz band to power data-heavy activity with ultra-fast 2.6 Gbps Wi-Fi speeds. Dynamic frequency selection (DFS) certification from the FCC not only allows operation at 160MHz enabling Tri-Stream160, but it also triples the channels available at 80MHz, so your router can operate in the clearest airspace that other Wi-Fi routers aren't allowed.

Thanks to MU-MIMO technology, the WRT3200ACM router can handle even the most bandwidth-intensive environments. MU-MIMO builds upon longtime broadcasting cornerstones - such as spatial multiplexing, beamforming, and scheduling algorithms - to boost overall throughput and distribute Wi-Fi bandwidth fairly between devices.

The router allows you to monitor and control your home network from anywhere through the Linksys Smart Wi-Fi website or mobile app.

This router is open source ready with OpenWrt and DD-WRT.
