ASUS ZenWiFi
Ideal Mesh Networking Solution For Thick Walls!
Whole-Home Coverage
The ZenWiFi AX Hybrid system includes a pair of ASUS AX1800 WiFi routers with built-in 1300 Mbps HomePlug AV2 powerline networking. It features unique technologies that give you superfast, reliable and secure WiFi connections – inside or outside your home!
Ideal For Overcoming Thick Walls
The ZenWiFi AX Hybrid combines WiFi and powerline technologies, providing the ideal solution for homes with thick or metal-reinforced walls that cause WiFi backhaul problems. Backhaul data for the mesh network can be sent via powerline over your home's electrical wiring, so home devices can connect at full AX1800 WiFi 6 speeds. The HomePlug AV2 MIMO standard is almost 2X faster* than the previous standard.
*Based on ASUS lab tests. For best results, please connect the unit directly to a wall socket. The use of extension leads may affect performance.
