2 Functions and Features
2.1 Automatically identifying Internet access mode
The router can automatically identify your Internet access mode (PPPoE/DHCP). No manual
operation is required.
NOTE
PPPoE, DHCP, static IP, and bridge are the most commonly used Internet access modes and are all
supported by HUAWEI WiFi AX3 Pro.
2.2 Multi-router network distribution
⚫Supports network expansion by connecting multiple HarmonyOS Mesh+ routers using
the H button.
⚫Supports network expansion by connecting multiple HarmonyOS Mesh+ routers using
Ethernet cables.
⚫Supports the auto-sync of your router's Wi-Fi configurations: If the Wi-Fi name,
password, or router management password is changed on your primary router, the
configuration will automatically sync to the others HarmonyOS Mesh+ routers.
⚫If there are multiple routers in your home, your Wi-Fi device will be automatically
switched to a better-performing router.
2.3 Connecting to your old router (through wired bridge
or wireless repeater mode) to form a network
⚫You can use an Ethernet cable to cascade HUAWEI WiFi AX3 Pro to an old router and
form a network. In this case, HUAWEI WiFiAX3 Pro works as the secondary router.
⚫HUAWEI WiFi AX3 Pro can also connect to your old router's Wi-Fi as a wireless
repeater. When it functions as a wireless repeater, it has the same Wi-Fi name and
password as your old router. There will be only one Wi-Fi network in your home.

If you have two HUAWEI routers that support HarmonyOS Mesh+, using HarmonyOS Mesh+ to
connect the two routers will be more convenient.
2.4 Ensuring privacy with multiple security mechanisms
⚫HUAWEI WiFi AX3 Pro controls Wi-Fi access and disconnects unwanted devices to
prevent unauthorized access.
⚫It supports guest Wi-Fi. You can set up a dedicated Wi-Fi network for your guests.
Guests have access to the guest Wi-Fi but cannot manage the router or access other
devices on the home network. This allows you to protect the security and privacy of your

⚫You can hide your Wi-Fi name to improve network security. If a Wi-Fi name is hidden,
wireless devices (like PCs and mobile phones) cannot search for the Wi-Fi name. To
connect a wireless device to a hidden Wi-Fi network, you must enter the correct Wi-Fi
name.
⚫The built-in firewall can protect you from DoS/ARP attacks by scanning all data
communication between the Internet and your home network.
⚫It supports DMZ feature that allows you to expose the DMZ host to the Internet, while
other devices are protected by the firewall. For example, when setting up a server, you
can set the computer connected to the external network as the DMZ host to allow it to
provide Internet services while ensuring the security of other devices on your home
network.
