AiProtection for Advanced Security
AiProtection, incorporating state-of-the-art, three-pronged security from Trend Micro, makes RT-AC68U one of the most secure home routers you can buy. As well as providing some of the most advanced parental controls in any mainstream router, it blocks malicious addresses and intrusions for your PC or device, and alerts you if an infected device is connected.
Potential weaknesses such as password strength and operating system vulnerabilities are also monitored at all times.
NVIDIA GameStream Ready
Your router is about to have a lot more fun. That’s because it can now stream all your favorite PC games to the NVIDIA SHIELD portable to play anywhere in the house using fast, ultra-reliable NVIDIA GameStream technology.
ASUS routers deliver lag-free, high-performance game streaming from GeForce GTX=powered PCs or NVIDIA GRID cloud gaming systems.
AC Wi-Fi with TurboQAM Wi-Fi Acceleration
Powered by 5th generation Wi-Fi (5G Wi-Fi), the new 802.11ac chipset gives the RT-AC68U superfast Gigabit wireless speeds. What’s more, RT-AC68U uses TurboQAM technology to upgrade 2.4G Wi-Fi even further to give you unprecedented speeds.
At 2.4 GHz, it’s 33 per cent faster than generic wireless-N900 routers, reaching 600 Mbps, while on the 5 GHz band it blazes to 1300 Mbps – or triple 802.11n rates. That’s 1900 Mbps of concurrent wireless power!
Do More at Once with Dual-Core Processors Inside
The ASUS RT-AC68U features a dual-core processor that eliminates the performance drops that plague other routers.
So even on the busiest home networks, HD video streaming is always smooth, the latency low for online gaming and VoIP calls, and file downloads are never interrupted.
Enhanced Signal Range and Stability
ASUS AiRadar intelligently strengthens wireless connectivity using beamforming technology, high power amplification, and exclusive ASUS RF fine-tuning.
This ensures extended coverage, dynamic data speed increases, and enhanced stability.
Dual-Band Connectivity for Compatibility and Performance
Delivering 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz concurrent bands at up to 600 Mbps and 1300 Mbps, respectively, the RT-AC68U has a total speed of up to 1900 Mbps, and maintains complete stability.
You can perform basic tasks like Web browsing and file downloading on the 2.4 GHz band, while simultaneously allowing multiple devices to stream in Full HD or support online gaming and other bandwidth-demanding applications smoothly on the clearer 5 GHz band.
Ultimate USB Speed and Versatility
Highest Speed USB 3.0 features data transfers up ten times faster than USB 2.0.
Two USB ports make the RT-AC68U perfect for file, multimedia, and 3G/4G sharing, while ASUS AiDisk offers remote access and quick content streaming.
Where other routers have their USB ports sandwiched next to one another, both RT-AC68U USB ports are evenly spaced for easy access to either at all times.
Robust Control and Optimisation with ASUSWRT
With the ASUSWRT dashboard UI, setup, monitor, and control network applications all in one intuitive area.
On top of 30-second setup,multi-device detection, and flexible settings that make the most of your network performance, it’s been upgraded with quick scanning of USB storage connected to routers to verify data integrity and drive health.
