Asus RT-N18U

details: 2.4GHz 600Mbps High Power Router
hardware type: Wireless Router
date added: 2014-05-11
updated: 2014-05-21
An 800MHz processor with high clock speed delivers fast and responsive USB and WAN to LAN performance; while TurboQAM technology raises the 2.4 GHz band speed from 450Mbps to 600Mbps for a 33% boost. The energy-efficient ARM-based CPU reduces power consumption to even help you save on the bills.

128MB flash and 256MB RAM ensure a massive data pipeline of up to 300,000 data sessions and multitasking capability, making it suitable for gaming or high-load network environments.

In addition, ASUS AiRadar intelligently strengthens wireless connectivity using universal beamforming, high power amplification and exclusive ASUS RF fine-tuning for a 150% increase in coverage, so even legacy 802.11b/g/n clients can benefit from this technology.

A built-in EZ Switch gives the flexibility of simple router, repeater, access point and media bridge mode selection.
