Multiple Users, Multiple Devices, Faster & More Reliable WiFi Performance

  • Go fast on all your devices
    Say goodbye to bandwidth congestion. Stream, game, play music and download files - all at the same time.

  • Go low on latency
    No more rubberbanding while gaming. Enjoy a stable, low variance gaming experience.

  • Boost your network performance
    All devices benefit when there’s more sharing and less competing for data transmission.

Increase Speed, Throughput and Capacity of Your Network

Take advantage of the MU-MIMO capable routers to get efficient and optimized WiFi performance for your connected home. As compared to the traditional routers that communicate with one device at a time, the newest class of WAVE 2 MU-MIMO routers can stream simultaneously to multiple devices.* By streaming simultaneously, WiFi is used more efficiently and the client devices get their data faster!
