Keep your entire home or network up and running with ASUS® routers that connect devices within range through a wired Ethernet connection or a wireless WiFi® connection. There are several types of routers available that carry features such multiple bands, parental controls, security features and physical ports. Choose wireless WiFi routers to keep phones, tablets, laptops and other mobile devices connected from a broad range of locations, or opt for wired models with connections that feature maximized speed and streaming.
While wireless WiFi routers can give you the freedom to move around, options that provide direct connection provide stable internet for serious gamers and streamers. Wired routers provide lower latency rates, which minimizes the delay between keystrokes and what happens on the screen. With ASUS wired routers, you can game freely at peak hours without worrying about slow response times or random disconnections. Unlike wireless routers with unprotected connections, wired WiFi routers offer high security online, protecting your information and safeguarding your connection while gaming, streaming or working. Office and other stable business spaces provide an ideal environment for wired networking connections.
ASUS routers are available in single-band, dual-band and tri-band options that help you manage your internet connections. Single-band wired routers use the 2.4GHz frequency while offering a budget-friendly consideration, especially if the number of users and frequency of use is minimal. Dual-band routers provide 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, providing multiple connection options that spread out the load without losing speed. Dual-band ASUS routers let those checking email or surfing the web use the 2.4GHz band, while streamers and gamers stay on the 5GHZ for less lag and connection interruptions. For multiple heavy users in a home or office environment, some tri-band routers provide two 5GHz bands for optimized speeds. Models with the 5GHz band provide efficient connections at closer ranges, while 2.4GHz uses wider wavelengths that travel farther for larger homes and offices. If you plan on connecting several devices, opting for a tri-band router with up to eight Ethernet ports helps ensure that all of your devices enjoy high-speed internet without interruption or lag.
Ideal for wireless networking, consider upgraded, commercial wired WiFi routers for maintaining security across networks. Wired ASUS routers keep everyone in the office connected with both WiFi and hard-wired connections, and have safety measures included that help prevent hacking. Opting for ASUS wired routers with WPA2 wireless encryption also ensures that your important emails, online communications and file transfers remain safe and secure, even with laptop networking. Look for options with guest networks that let visitors connect to your Wi-Fi without providing access to the rest of the network. Sectioning off the network allows for office visitors and home guests to access your network using a provided password, while you still maintain overall system security for added protection of sensitive files.
