Whole-Home Gaming
Does your router leave you with WiFi dead spots? RT-AX82U supports ASUS AiMesh, a unique mesh-networking technology that creates a whole-home network using multiple ASUS routers. With easy central control and seamless roaming, even non-experts can set it up with any AiMesh-capable routers you own. Say goodbye to WiFi dead zones!

Commercial-grade Security for Your Home
Home network security is crucial when you have multiple connected devices, and even more so when there are devices without anti-virus capabilities such as IoT devices. RT-AX82U includes lifetime free AiProtection Pro, including the latest WPA3 security protocol and advanced Parental Controls. Every device is protected with RT-AX82U, and you can keep an eye on everything that's happening on your network via the handy mobile app.

Fortified Frontline Network Security
RT-AX82U features AiProtection Pro powered by Trend Micro to defend your network from external attacks, with automatic and regular updates. Working with WPA3, the latest WiFi security protocol, AiProtection Pro keeps out security threats before they can reach your devices, including devices that cannot install anti-virus software — such as smartphones and game consoles.

Advanced Parental Controls
Advanced Parental Controls has everything you need in one place: it's super-easy to view or change security settings on each of your family member's devices, so your kids can be safer when surfing!
