The ASUS RT-AC86U is a wireless dual-band gigabit router designed to deliver fast and reliable internet, especially for gamers and heavy streamers. It offers speeds up to 2900 Mbps, ensuring smooth performance even when multiple devices are connected. The built-in game accelerator powered by WTFast reduces lag and lowers ping, making online gaming more responsive and enjoyable.

Equipped with a 1.8 GHz dual-core processor, this router handles demanding network tasks efficiently. Technologies like MU-MIMO and beamforming improve connectivity by allowing multiple devices to communicate simultaneously and by focusing the Wi-Fi signal directly to your devices.

If you want to extend coverage, the RT-AC86U supports AiMesh, allowing you to create a seamless whole-home Wi-Fi system by connecting compatible ASUS routers. Security is also a priority, with AiProtection powered by Trend Micro providing robust protection for all connected devices, including those without their own antivirus software.
