Asus RT-AC85U Review

The ASUS RT-AC85U includes a dual-core processor that eliminates the performance drops that plague other routers. So actually on the busiest house networks, HD movie streaming is definitely easy, the latency reduced for online video gaming and VoIP phone calls, and document downloads should never be interrupted.

Powered by 5th era Wi-Fi (5G Wi-Fi) and 256QAM technologies, the 802.11ac chipset provides RT-AC85U faster wifi speeds than N technology. At 2.4 GHz, it reaches 800 Mbps, while on the 5GHz band it blazes to 1734 Mbps. The improved bandwidth gets the higher capacity you have to boost Wi-Fi enjoyment in the home. With notebooks, desktops, pads, and smartphones today all Wi-Fi-reliant, it’s time and energy to upgrade to another generation to increase your connectivity now and in the foreseeable future.
