ASUS Singapore has officially launched the RT-BE88U WiFi 7 Dual Band router to solve everyone’s wireless bandwidth problem with just a single network unit.
It takes advantage of the WiFi 7 protocol to deliver up to 7200Mbps of speed while leveraging 4K-QAM and dual-band Multi-Link Operation (MLO) to distribute traffic equally across different devices for a balanced connection between users. Other than that, it also comes with a 10 Gbps Ethernet port and a 10 Gbps SFP+ port, each configurable as LAN or WAN as well as up to 9x LAN ports at maximum. One can utilize the 10GbE port for local file transfer between NAS and media servers while using others for Internet WAN with compatible speed packages.
Designed as a high-end router, the RT-BE88U includes features to customize the network experience including backup Internet connection via 4G/5G mobile data tethering, Guest Network Pro for segmenting SSIDs for IoT, VPNs, and safe browsing for kids, while VLAN support allows users to create device groups with specific security and access rules. For VPN needs, the RT-BE88U supports site-to-site connections with WireGuard.
It also has AiProtection Pro powered by Trend Micro for additional protection against phishing, ransomware, and webcam hacking. Additionally, ASUS AiMesh is available for easy network expansion
