TUF Gaming AX5400 is designed to give you stable and fast wireless and wired connections in device-dense environments. It's a router that benefits all your devices, from laptops, smartphones, and game consoles right down to all the IoT devices in your home.

WiFi 6 provides faster wireless speeds with OFDMA, BSS coloring and MU-MIMO technologies, and it also boosts network efficiency, so all your devices get their fair share of WiFi bandwidth. It's perfect for busy networks with lots of different WiFi devices, such as laptops, smartphones and smart home devices.

For true multi-gigabit performance, you need both WAN and LAN connections that support these speeds. TUF Gaming AX5400 features both WAN and LAN aggregation, so you can enjoy 2 Gbps wired speeds from your modem all the way to your PC or NAS.

It uses OFDMA, a new technology in WiFi 6 that allows signals to travel further than they can in WiFi 5. With a 4x4 MIMO configuration and separate 2.4 GHz and 5GHz antennas to reduce interference, along with other enhancements like beamforming, which focuses the signal towards each device, TUF Gaming AX5400 reaches every corner.

TUF Gaming AX5400 is engineered to deliver maximum WiFi performance. The vent location and double heatsink design improve cooling for increased stability, and the fixed antennas and metal port protectors increase physical durability.

VPN Fusion lets you run both a VPN and an ordinary internet connection - simultaneously! So even if other network users need to use a VPN, you can still enjoy maximum gaming speeds.

Home network security is crucial when you have multiple connected devices, and even more so when there are devices without anti-virus capabilities such as IoT devices. TUF Gaming AX5400 includes lifetime free AiProtection Pro, including the latest WPA3 security protocol and advanced Parental Controls. Every device is protected with TUF Gaming AX5400, and you can keep an eye on everything that's happening on your network via the handy mobile app.
