Key features

Broadcom's 5G WiFi XStream is a MIMO platform for home routers that includes six 802.11ac streams and three 802.11n streams that run simultaneously. Highlights include:

~ Five core "Penta Core" central processing unit (CPU) made up of two 5GHz radios and one 2.4GHz radio as well as 2.96 GHz processing power to maximize network capacity

~ Support for recently released spectrum from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) through simultaneous multichannel capabilities in 5 GHz band to enable six 802.11ac streams over 160 MHz of bandwidth

~ Greatest reach and rate at range through high power RF on upper 5GHz and 2.4GHz bands

~ Better range for video streaming with transmit beamforming and AnyBeam technology

~ SmartConnect software to ensure each Wi-Fi device operates on best frequency band in one of three appropriate wireless channels

~ Automatic separation of coexisting 802.11n and 802.11ac Wi-Fi devices into distinct frequencies

~ BroadStream Intelligent Quality of Service (iQoS) software to identify incoming traffic and allocate appropriate bandwidth for priority applications

~ Wireless Insight software as visual tool to allow users to easily notice and diagnose common Wi-Fi issues, reducing the cost of ownership

~ Standards compliance to ensure all Wi-Fi CERTIFIED devices seamlessly interoperate and benefit with the new platform

No 10Gbit LAN ports? Because WLAN in an optimal environment could be faster than 1Gbit.

How many out there are using FTTX > 1Gbps? and how much one is willing to pay for 10GbE home based router?

It's weird seeing this one on ASUS webpage and not RT-AC87U.

What surprises me most is that stupidity continues, 1xUSB 2.0 and 1xUSB 3.0.

Nice job ASUS

Is this old?

Also noted that the white versions of AC66U and AC68U are on Asus website.

ROFL

 

[Raiu]

can they just work on getting the ac1900 devices to work properly first.

 

[thiggins]

ROFL

Why is that?

The R8000 kind of looks like a dead bug (on its back with its legs sticking up).

After the RT-AC68U, I'm wary of any new high end routers coming out with Broadcom chips in them. I've certainly learned my lesson to wait for reviews instead of preordering based on specs and marketing.

Thanks, could you please link the article to this thread?

I would have to retitle it again. Besides, the article is about more than the ASUS router.
I started another thread for the article and linked to this thread from it.

NP, actually from that article you've linked to the Wireless Article Discussions sub-forum, not the new thread in that sub-forum.
