FAQs
What is WiFi 6 and how does it benefit my network?
WiFi 6 (802.11ax) is the latest wireless standard offering faster speeds, improved capacity, and better efficiency when handling multiple devices simultaneously. The MR60X supports up to 1.5 Gbps total throughput, with technologies like OFDMA and MU-MIMO enabling multiple devices to transmit data at the same time without degradation.
How many devices can the MR60X handle at once?
The MR60X is designed to efficiently support multiple simultaneous connections through OFDMA and MU-MIMO technologies. These allow the router to communicate with several devices concurrently, significantly improving network capacity compared to older WiFi standards.
What is WPA3 and why does it matter?
WPA3 is the latest WiFi security standard, providing enhanced protection against unauthorised access and improved encryption. It offers better security for your wireless network and connected devices compared to previous standards.
What is Smart Connect and how does it work?
Smart Connect is an intelligent band management feature that automatically assigns each device to either the 5 GHz or 2.4 GHz band based on the device's capabilities and current network conditions. This optimises performance and reduces congestion.
Does the MR60X cover large homes effectively?
The MR60X features four high-gain multi-directional antennas with Beamforming technology designed to extend WiFi range and provide stronger coverage throughout your home. Coverage depends on building layout, materials, and interference, but the antenna configuration is optimised for typical residential environments.
Can I use gigabit internet speeds with this router?
Yes, the MR60X includes Gigabit Ethernet ports for wired connections, allowing you to take full advantage of gigabit-class internet speeds where available.
What is BSS Colour and how does it help?
BSS Colour is a WiFi 6 feature that helps reduce interference from neighbouring wireless networks. It works by identifying and minimising the impact of overlapping signals, improving transmission efficiency and overall network stability.
