Mercusys MR1800X

details: AX1800 Dual Band WiFi 6 Router
hardware type: Wireless Router
date added: 2021-10-24
updated: 2021-11-07
The latest WiFi 6 standard implements advanced technology designed to boost the average data throughput per user in dense user environments, deliver more simultaneous connections, extend WiFi range, and maintain reliable data transmissions, satisfying the demand for a high-performance wireless experience.

By combining 1024-QAM and a long OFDM symbol, MR1800X delivers total speeds of up to 1800 Mbps – 1201 Mbps on 5 GHz and 574 Mbps on 2.4 GHz. Game online, watch 4K videos, and crank up everything to the highest settings without lag.

With MU-MIMO and OFDMA, MR1800X transmits data to and from multiple devices at the same time, reaching up to 4× more capacity, greatly increasing your devices' transmission efficiency and the throughput of your whole network under the same conditions.

Four high-gain antennas armed with advanced wireless technology provide strong signals throughout your home. Beamforming detects your connected devices and concentrates wireless signal strength towards them, making your connections more stable.

The latest security standard, WPA3, provides improved comprehensive WiFi protection to defend your devices and private information against brute-force attacks.

BSS Color marks the data frames from different APs which helps minimize the signal interference from your neighbors to improve transmission efficiency.

Target Wake Time reduces power consumption for your mobile and IoT devices during data transmissions to extend battery life.

Smart Connect combines the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands into a single WiFi SSID and helps your devices intelligently choose the best available band that has the stronger signal and faster speed. This keeps your devices always running optimally when you walk around your home.
