Eliminate WiFi Congestion

The dedicated gaming port on DSL-AX82U automatically prioritizes any wired device connected to it. No complex configuration is needed, just connect your gaming PC or console to the special LAN port to give you a fast, stable connection that's always at the head of the queue.

Gear Accelerator lets you prioritize devices wirelessly via DSL-AX82U's online control panel. The simple interface lets you prioritize devices to help boost their speed and prevent them fighting over bandwidth with other devices.

Connect your devices to the 5 GHz band and avoid the often-congested 2.4 GHz band, while enjoying up to 8.4X faster WiFi speeds. Also, optional Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) unlocks up to 15 of the least-congested channels on the 5GHz band to give you even more bandwidth for gaming.***

Remove Network Bottlenecks

Adaptive QoS (Quality of Service) lets you keep your network running smoothly by prioritizing network traﬃc. You can prioritize applications such as streaming video or web surﬁng, as well as gaming. It's the perfect ally for delivering low-latency WiFi anywhere in your home.

Whole-Home Coverage

Does your router leave you with WiFi dead spots? DSLAX82U supports ASUS AiMesh, a unique meshnetworking technology that creates a whole-home network using multiple ASUS routers. With easy central control and seamless roaming, even non-experts can set it up with any AiMesh-capable routers you own. Say goodbye to WiFi dead zones!****

Schedule Block Time

Content Filter

View each family member's internet activity on a clear graphical dashboard showing the peak time and what kind of content they are viewing. You can group devices that belong to your children to view aggregated data and apply scheduled block times and content filters with just a few taps.

Check the box when editing a device and profile, and the preset automatically applies filters for inappropriate content to all their devices.
