Powered by 5th generation Wi-Fi (5G Wi-Fi) and 256QAM technology, the 802.11ac chipset gives the RT-AC85P faster wireless speeds than N technology. At 2.4 GHz, it reaches 600 Mbps, while on the 5GHz band it blazes to 1733 Mbps. The upgraded bandwidth has the higher capacity you need to increase Wi-Fi enjoyment at home.

Asus QoS ensures inbound and outbound bandwidth on both wired and wireless connections, you could control each client devices with different download and upload max speed, also could define your online gaming and HD streaming as highest priority, stop all your lagging issues.

MU-MIMO gives every compatible device its own dedicated full-speed Wi-Fi connection, so that multiple devices can connect at the same time without slowing down the network. In fact, RT-AC85P is able to connect to multiple MU-MIMO-compatible clients at each device's maximum speed simultaneously, unlike standard single-user MIMO where individual devices have to wait for sequential transmissions.

Keep your kids safe when they explore the internet. You can monitor the internet activities and restrict the times that each device can access the internet by applying scheduled time limits.

USB 3.1 (Gen1) features data transfers up ten times faster than USB 2.0. RT-AC85P is perfect for file, multimedia, and 3G/4G sharing, while ASUS AiDisk offers remote access and quick content streaming.
