Asus RT-AX53U Router AX1800 WiFi 6 Dual Band - Up to 1800Mbps - 3 RJ45 LAN Ports, 1 RJ45 WAN Port and 1 USB-2.0 Port - 4 External Antennas

The ever-growing number of devices we connect to our networks is pushing today's Wi-Fi technology to its limits. The new 802.11ax standard includes forward-looking technologies, offering more efficient, faster wireless connections, superior coverage, extending the battery life of connected devices and, in short, delivering a significantly better network experience. *To enjoy the benefits of the 802.11ax Wi-Fi standard, you need to connect 802.11ax-compatible devices.
Next-generation Wi-Fi speed.
The RT-AX53U is a dual-band 2x2 Wi-Fi router that, thanks to 80 MHz bandwidth and 1024-QAM technology, delivers much faster wireless connections. With a total network speed of approximately 1800 Mbps (574 Mbps on the 2.4 GHz band and 1201 Mbps on the 5 GHz band), the RT-AX53U is 1.5 times faster than dual-band 802.11ac 2x2 routers.
Built for homes with lots of devices.
With a revolutionary combination of OFDMA and MU-MIMO technologies, 802.11ax provides up to 4 times more network capacity and efficiency in traffic-saturated environments. The previous-generation 802.11ac Wi-Fi can only handle one device per channel at a time, resulting in inefficient use of available bandwidth. However, thanks to OFDMA support, the new 802.11ax standard splits each channel into subchannels that can be used by multiple devices at the same time*, resulting in less latency and a smoother, faster Wi-Fi experience.
More battery life for your devices.
Thanks to Target Wake Time (TWT) technology, the RT-AX53U transmits device data in assigned time slots, reducing their power consumption by up to 7 times*, since devices only connect during their assigned time slot.
Greater Wi-Fi range
Equipped with the new 802.11ax Wi-Fi standard and OFDMA technology, the RT-AX53U produces a Wi-Fi signal with greater range. OFDMA splits channels into subchannels with lower bandwidth, letting them reach up to 80% further1. Enjoy quality Wi-Fi connections throughout your home*.
Professional-grade security for your home network.
The RT-AX53U includes AiProtection with Trend Micro Smart Home Network technology. AiProtection protects all connected devices, even those without antivirus (such as IoT devices). AiProtection blocks internet-based attacks before they reach the network, and if it detects an infected device, it instantly blocks it to prevent it from sending any personal information to malicious servers.
Connectivity options.
The RT-AX53U has a Gigabit WAN port, three Gigabit LAN ports and a USB 2.0 port. This lets you connect your Smart TV, game console and NAS storage devices to different ports and use the RT-AX53U as your connection hub.
ASUSWRT control and optimization interface.
ASUSWRT lets you configure, monitor and control your network applications from its intuitive interface. Get the most out of your network's performance with quick, versatile setup and detection of all connected devices. *Actual data throughput and Wi-Fi coverage will vary depending on network conditions. Factors such as traffic volume and network overhead or building construction materials can negatively affect data throughput and wireless coverage.
