Description

Built for Smart Home
WiFi 6 (802.11ax) is engineered to cope with multiple devices, providing up to 4X greater network capacity and efficiency.

WiFi that Goes Further
WiFi 6 provides increased WiFi signal range and better coverage of up to 80% farther.

Faster WiFi. Smoother Usage.
With a total networking speed of 3,000Mbps— RT-AX57 is 1.5X faster than 802.11ac 2X2 dual-band routers*.
*The data compares speed of 2x2 WiFi 6 solution on 2.4GHz / 5GHz bands to speed of 2X2 WiFi 5 solution on 2.4GHz / 5GHz bands

BSS Coloring Boosts Connection Efficiency
WiFi 6 includes a new feature called BSS Coloring that improves WiFi connection efficiency even in crowded environments. When two neighboring routers send traffic on the same channel, your router has to wait until the channel is free. With BSS Coloring, your WiFi 6 router identifies its data with a unique channel tag ('color') that's different from neighboring networks. Your WiFi 6 router can then ignore other-colored signals on the channel and send data immediately.* This greatly reduces router waiting times and boosts network efficiency.
*A BSS Coloring-compatible client is needed to enjoy the benefit.

The Latest WPA3 Network Security
The next generation of WiFi security, bringing new capabilities to enhance WiFi protections in personal networks. Building on the widespread adoption of WPA2 over more than a decade, WPA3 adds new features to simplify WiFi security, enable more robust authentication, and deliver increased cryptographic strength for highly sensitive data markets.

Make the Internet a Safer Place for Everyone
AiProtection Classic with auto update is free for life. It can block malicious websites and detect infected devices to give you total peace of mind all the time.

More Privacy, Anywhere
Free public WiFi is rarely secure. Thanks to Instant Guard VPN technology, you can surf on public WiFi network safely through RT-AX57 with one-click setup. In addition, it’s free!

Flexible and Scalable Wireless Networking
If you need more coverage or new functions, you can simply add another compatible router to your AiMesh network at any time!

The Way You Want, Easy Control
