C6250 provides 16 times faster download speeds, up to 680 Mbps, with this 2-in-1 AC1600 WiFi router and integrated DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem for streaming HD videos, faster downloads, and high-speed online gaming.

Simultaneous dual band reduces interference and provides up to 1600Mbps (300Mbps N +1300Mbps AC).

ReadySHARE USB ACCESS allows users to wirelessly access and share USB hard drive and printer via the USB port.

Use Push 'N' Connect to add devices to your WiFi network with a push of a button. And the simple browser-based installation with no CD makes router installation easy using an iPad, tablet, smartphone, or computer.

Guest networks create a completely separate WiFi network for your guests' devices, ensuring they do not have access to your home network or to the shared USB hard drive with all your personal data. Secure WiFi connections offer the highest level of WPA/WPA2 security.
