Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the AC2600 WiFi Router. This router is compliant with
802.11a/b/g/n/ac and up to 6 times faster than standard 802.11n based routers while still being
compatible with 802.11g & 802.11b devices. This router is not only a Wireless Access Point, but
also doubles as a 4-port full-duplex Gigabit switch that connects your wired-Ethernet devices
together at 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds.
At 800Mbps wireless transmission rate on 2.4GHz and 1750 Mbps wireless transmission rate on
5GHz, the Access Point built into the router uses advanced MIMO (Multi-Input, Multi-Output)
technology to transmit multiple streams of data in a single wireless channel, giving you
seamless access to multimedia content. The robust RF signal travels farther, eliminates dead
spots and extends the network range. For data protection and privacy, the router encodes all
wireless transmissions with WEP, WPA, or WPA2 encryption.
With the built-in DHCP Server & powerful SPI firewall, the router protects your computers
against intruders and most known Internet attacks and also provides safe VPN pass-through.
With the incredible speed and QoS function of 802.11n, the router is ideal for media-centric
applications like streaming video, gaming, and VoIP telephony to run multiple media-intense
data streams through the network at the same time, with no degradation in performance.
