Get ready for WiFi 6 (802.11ax) home networking
The increasing number of connections between individuals and IoT devices has greatly increased overall network density, pushing current Wi-Fi standards to their limits. The latest 802.11ax standard provides forward-looking technology, higher network efficiency, faster Wi-Fi speeds, greater coverage and longer battery life of connected devices, bringing a better network experience to users.
*An 802.11ax-compatible device is required to enjoy the benefits of the 802.11ax WiFi standard.
Next generation WiFi speed
RT-AX58U is a 2×2 dual-band Wi-Fi router that provides 160MHz bandwidth and 1024-QAM, greatly improving the speed of wireless connections. The RT-AX58U has a total network speed of approximately 3000Mbps, including 574Mbps on the 2.4GHz band and 2402Mbps on the 5GHz band, which is 2.5 times faster than an 802.11ac 2×2 dual-band router.
Designed for multi-device home networks
802.11ax technology revolutionizes the integration of OFDMA and MU-MIMO technologies to provide up to 4 times the network capacity and efficiency in high-density traffic environments. Previous generation 802.11ac Wi-Fi could only handle one device per network channel at a time, which did not fully utilize the available bandwidth. OFDMA supported by the 802.11ax Wi-Fi standard can divide each channel into small sub-channels, integrating signals from multiple devices* and transmitting them simultaneously, thereby reducing latency and providing a smoother, more responsive Wi-Fi experience.
Provide commercial-grade security for home networks
RT-AX58U comes with lifetime free AiProtection Pro, a feature powered by Trend Micro™ that automatically and regularly updates security signatures to protect your device and personal data from online threats. This powerful security feature provides advanced parental controls, including the ability to block specific websites and mobile app types.
Latest WPA3 standard improves network security
Next-generation Wi-Fi security improves Wi-Fi protection for personal and enterprise networks with new features. Building on the widely adopted WPA2 foundation for more than a decade, WPA3 now incorporates new capabilities to simplify Wi-Fi security, provide more robust authentication, and increase password strength in markets with highly sensitive data.
Powerful, complete home Wi-Fi system that lets you do whatever you want
In most cases, the RT-AX58U provides smooth and reliable Wi-Fi to every corner of your home. However, Wi-Fi coverage can be affected by many factors — room layout, building materials, and even furnishings. ASUS AiMesh is an innovative sharing feature that can solve these problems: Use multiple ASUS routers to create a Wi-Fi network covering the entire home. AiMesh is powerful and adaptable, so you can mix different ASUS router models without having to throw away your original router! AiMesh gives you time-saving centralized management and seamless roaming capabilities. AiMesh is Wi-Fi you can trust, always accessible to all your devices!
. A simple firmware update turns your ASUS router into a complete home Wi-Fi system
. Flexible mix and match with specified or existing ASUS router models
. A Wi-Fi network can be established through a single SSID or multiple SSIDs, and you can move around the space without switching SSIDs.
. All router functions can be performed throughout the Wi-Fi system management
