User reviews
General info
With more LAN ports you are able to connect more computers to the network directly using LAN cables.
A WAN (Wider Area Network) port is most commonly used to connect the router to the internet. It can also be used to connect to an external private network.
3.has outdoor capability
✖Asus DSL-AX82U
The device can be set up in outdoor environments.
With more USB ports, you are able to connect more devices.
5.warranty period
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
When covered under the manufacturer’s warranty it is possible to get a replacement in the case of a malfunction.
6.weight
740g
We consider a lower weight better because lighter devices are more comfortable to carry. A lower weight is also an advantage for home appliances, as it makes transportation easier, and for many other types of products.
7.volume
8349cm³
Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by the product's chassis or, in simpler terms, the space the product occupies.
8.thickness
165mm
We consider a thinner chassis better because it makes the product more compact and portable. Thinness is a feature highlighted by many manufacturers of mobile devices, but it is essential for a wide range of products.
9.width
275mm
The width represents the horizontal dimension of the product. We consider a smaller width better because it assures easy maneuverability.
Performance
1.Wi-Fi speed
4804Mb/s
A higher maximum Wi-Fi speed results in better performance. This is measured in megabits per second.
2.Has tri-band technology
✖Asus DSL-AX82U
Devices that support three wireless bands are able to accommodate more devices on a network and offer higher speeds (up to 4,000 Gbps on the 5 GHz band).
3.supports Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax)
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
Wi-Fi 6, released in 2019, is based on the IEEE 802.11ax wireless LAN standard. Designed to operate in all frequency bands between 1 and 6 GHz, it offers higher data rates and lower latency compared to previous Wi-Fi technologies.
4.supports Wi-Fi 4 (802.11n)
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
Wi-Fi 4 (802.11n) is a wireless standard released in 2009. It has faster transfer rates and improved security compared to its predecessors – a, b, and g.
5.supports Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac)
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
802.11ac wireless works on the 5GHz frequency range. It offers higher transfer rates, improved reliability, and improved power consumption. It provides advantages for gaming and HD video streaming.
6.CPU speed
3 x 1.5GHz
The CPU speed indicates how many processing cycles per second can be executed by a CPU, considering all of its cores (processing units). It is calculated by adding the clock rates of each core or, in the case of multi-core processors employing different microarchitectures, of each group of cores.
7.Has dual-band technology
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
Dual-band devices can transmit data quickly on the newest 5GHz band, using recent standards (e.g., 802.11n, 802.11ac). They can also use the older 2.4GHz band if needed.
8.RAM
0.51GB
Random-access memory (RAM) is a form of volatile memory used to store working data and machine code currently in use. It is a quick-access, temporary virtual storage that can be read and changed in any order, thus enabling fast data processing.
9.has an external memory slot
✖Asus DSL-AX82U
The device has a standard memory slot (such as an SD or micro SD card slot) that enables you to extend the built-in internal storage with affordable memory modules, or easily retrieve data, such as photographs, from the memory card.
Antennas
More antennas result in increased signal strength. External antennas can be repositioned in order to improve the signal, and replaced with a longer antenna if needed.
2.Has removable antennas
✖Asus DSL-AX82U
The antennas can be removed if they are not needed, or replaced with longer ones if necessary.
3.internal antennas
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
More antennas result in increased signal strength. Devices with internal antennas often take up less space.
Security
1.Has a built-in network firewall
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
A network firewall protects a computer network from unauthorized access.
2.Has DoS protection
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
DoS protection guards a content network against DoS (Denial of Service) attacks. These flood a network with server requests, slowing overall traffic and potentially causing long term interruptions.
3.supports WPA3
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
WPA3 is a method of connecting to a Wi-Fi network that is more secure than the previous protocol (WPA2). Individual data is better encrypted and it is harder for hackers to gain the password with a brute-force attack.
4.Has WPA2 Enterprise
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
This is a router feature that is designed to authenticate individual users to an external server using a username and password. It is more secure and complex than WPA.
5.supports WPA2
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
WPA2-PSK is a method of securing your network using WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) as well as a Pre-Shared Key (PSK) password. This was designed for home users without an enterprise authentication server.
6.Has MAC address filtering
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
This is a security feature in which network access is granted to devices based on their unique MAC address. It can provide increased security, but it can be a risk if the user loses the device.
7.Has L2TP Passthrough
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
You can enable L2TP Passthrough. L2TP (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol) is a VPN (Virtual Private Network) protocol for carrying data from one device to another securely over the internet.
8.Has IPsec Passthrough
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
You can enable IPsec Passthrough, to allow IPsec (IP Security Protocol) encrypted/authenticated data to pass through your router, enabling increased security.
9.Has SPI intrusion protection
✖Asus DSL-AX82U
All incoming traffic will be blocked except for those types selected in the Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) section. This helps to protect your network from unwanted traffic.
Features
1.IPv6 enabled
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
IPv6 is a newer version of the Internet Protocol. IPv6 operates as a separate network to IPv4, and has the capacity for more IP addresses and more features.
2.has beamforming
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
Normally, a router broadcasts the Wi-Fi signal in all directions. Using beamforming technology, the router detects where your device is and focuses a stronger signal in that direction, resulting in a better connection.
3.supports mesh Wi-Fi
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
If you use several of these routers, they can link up with each other to provide a greater area of Wi-Fi coverage. It's particularly useful if you have a large house or apartment.
4.Has a dedicated smartphone app
✖Asus DSL-AX82U
There is a dedicated smartphone app that is designed to be used with the device.
5.Is cloud enabled
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
Cloud compatibility allows you to control the operation of the device remotely using your smartphone, tablet or other mobile internet devices.
6.Can be used wirelessly
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
Wireless devices allow users more freedom of movement.
7.is DLNA-certified
✖Asus DSL-AX82U
All DLNA-certified products are compatible with one another. When different devices are connected to the same network, data can be transferred easily between them.
8.Has Universal Plug n Play
✖Asus DSL-AX82U
Universal Plug n Play (UPnP) is a set of networking protocols that permits networked devices, such as PCs, printers, internet gateways, Wi-Fi access points and mobile devices to find each other and exchange information on the network.
9.Has QoS
✔Asus DSL-AX82U
With (QoS) Quality of Service, you can optimize performance by deciding which traffic to prioritize when a bottleneck occurs. You can decide which traffic is important based on things like IP address and the type of internet service.
Miscellaneous
The global median price is determined by calculating the median value of all the prices available for a product, taking into account all markets.
