Powered by 5th-generation Wi-Fi (5G Wi-Fi), the 802.11ac chipset gives the RT-AC59U super-fast wireless speeds. RT-AC59U delivers up to 867 Mbps at 5 GHz, also with 4x4 600 Mbps at 2.4 GHz which is 2X faster than current 300 Mbps routers.
The RT-AC59U is equipped with four Gigabit LAN ports that can pump up to 4Gbps simultaneously. Smart TVs, game consoles, cable boxes, media players, NAS storage devices and more can now have their own dedicated ports, making the RT-AC59U your home's lag-free media hub.
