Dedicated dual-processor design maximizes networking bandwidth for lag-free HD content streaming and multiplayer gaming
Taipei, Taiwan (June 4, 2012) ― the ASUS RT-N65U USB 3.0 dual-band wireless-N750 Gigabit router offers consumers an attractive and powerful networking device, maintaining the uniquely artistic black diamond design previously seen on ASUS routers such as the RT-N56U.
It utilizes dual processors to optimize dual-band 2.4GHz/5GHz throughput, and ships with twin USB 3.0 ports to enable easy device connectivity and flexible usage as a server. Its hardware NAT further accelerates Gigabit Ethernet performance, and the entire package is made readily accessible to users via the exclusive ASUSWRT dashboard interface.
Unique dual-processor network enhancement
The RT-N65U improves network performance for smoother and more satisfying online experiences. Using a powerful yet efficient dual-processor System on a Chip (SoC) architecture, it dedicates a CPU to each of its operating bands, clocked at 2.4GHz and 5GHz.
This allows the two bands to reach their maximum throughput, unlike single-CPU designs, where compute power has to be shared. Combined, the two bands offer up to 750Mbps in bandwidth, with highly efficient resource management. Users can take advantage of the less crowded and cleaner 5GHz band for high-traffic tasks such as HD streaming and online gaming, while the standard 2.4GHz band easily handles more routine applications, including web browsing, social networking, and emailing.
Better sharing and productivity with SuperSpeed USB 3.0
ASUS includes two USB 3.0 ports on the RT-N65U, instantly turning the router into a multi-function server. Users can apply it as an FTP, Samba, UPnP AV, and printer server, making better use of resources by sharing across different devices.
The router can download content directly to USB storage with no PC required, helping users get more done simultaneously with improved multitasking and time savings. The RT-N65U is also fully DLNA-certified, and can be used as a foundation for a fast home entertainment setup.
Gigabit networking with hardware NAT
Onboard hardware NAT IP address resolution and packet control helps in achieving better Gigabit Ethernet performance, with WAN to LAN throughput two to five times greater than that provided by Gigabit routers that employ software NAT.
Power functions and easy management
As with other recent ASUS routers, the exclusive ASUSWRT dashboard interface offers streamlined setup with just a few steps, allowing users to get online quickly and hassle-free. It also provides extensive network monitoring and control, all with an intuitive graphical design that can be learned in minutes.
Client management and one-click updates are also included, alongside several ASUS applications such as VPN Server, Download Master (24-hour downloading even post-shutdown), parental controls, guest networks, and 3G connection sharing.
