Asus RT-N18U N600 Gigabit WiFi Router

Asus RT-N18U features top-of-the-line hardware specifications. An 800MHz processor with high clock speed delivers fast and responsive USB and WAN to LAN performance; while TurboQAM™ technology raises the 2.4 GHz band speed from 450 Mbps to 600 Mbps for a 33% boost. 128MB flash and 256MB RAM ensure a massive data pipeline of up to 300,000 data sessions and multitasking capability, making it perfect for gaming or high-load network environments. The energy-efficient ARM-based CPU reduces power consumption to even help you save on the bills. In addition, ASUS AiRadar intelligently strengthens wireless connectivity using universal beamforming, high power amplification and exclusive ASUS RF fine-tuning for a 150% increase in coverage1 , so even legacy 802.11b/g/n clients can benefit from this technology.

Asus RT-N18U also incorporates more user-friendly and intuitive software. With the ASUSWRT interface, you can easily set up the router within 30 seconds, or switch RT-N18U between its various modes. You can optimize speed with the built-in Smart QoS function, or turn the USB storage attached to the router into a personal cloud with ASUS AiCloud.

At the heart of RT-N18U is a powerful but energy-efficient ARM Cortex-A9 processor running at 800MHz that ensures fast and responsive performance. The 128MB of Flash memory and 256MB of DDR3 RAM further enhance multitasking performance and allow up to 300,000 concurrent data sessions — making RT-N18U ideal for multimedia applications such as HD video streaming, online gaming and file sharing.
