"External 5 antennas, precise layout, larger coverage area and longer range"

The combination of the MT7981BA+MT7976CN+MT7531AE chipset, a 1.3 GHz dual-core CPU, and 256 MB of RAM ensures stable performance, while MU-MIMO and OFDMA technology smoothly handle multiple simultaneous connections. The device supports modern VPN protocols such as OpenVPN and WireGuard, making it ideal for secure working from home or accessing globally restricted content.

Thanks to EasyMesh functionality, the router can be easily integrated into a mesh network, thus providing complete coverage for large areas, multi-story apartments, or offices. Four powerful, permanently installed antennas guarantee wide signal coverage and high stability – even through walls.

The device offers flexible connectivity options with one WAN port and three LAN ports (each 10/100/1000 Mbps) as well as advanced network features such as guest network, parental controls, firewall and web configuration.
