Mercusys MR90X

details: AX6000 8-Stream Wi-Fi 6 Router
hardware type: Wireless Router
date added: 2023-07-16
updated: 2023-07-27
Armed with 160 MHz channels and 1024-QAM,1 MR90X provides faster wireless connections. The speeds go up to 6000 Mbps – 4804 Mbps on 5 GHz and 1148 Mbps on 2.4 GHz.

A 2.5 Gbps port and 1 Gbps port make full use of gigabit speeds from your local ISP. Break through the 1G bottleneck and drive your devices to peak performance. WAN/LAN support gives you remarkable flexibility to tailor both ports to fit your network's needs.

Interference from nearby wireless networks may cause issues with your signal, especially when you live in an apartment or close to your neighbors. MR90X supports BSS Coloring to mark the data frames from different APs. This helps minimize the signal interference from your neighbors to improve transmission efficiency.

Streaming or gaming on multiple devices brings more fun without dragging down performance. MR90X supports OFDMA and 4×4 MU-MIMO to power up your WiFi by allowing multiple clients to transmit at the same time. This delivers 4× greater network capacity and efficiency in traffic-dense environments.

Target Wake Time reduces power consumption for your mobile and IoT devices during data transmissions to extend your devices' battery life.

Eight high-gain antennas armed with advanced wireless technology provide strong signals throughout your home. Beamforming detects your connected devices and concentrates wireless signal strength towards them, making your connections more stable.

Powered by a robust Quad-core 1.6 GHz processor, MR90X handles massive data throughput, allowing numerous bandwidth-intensive tasks to run smoothly at the same time and enables stable connections for up to 256 devices.

Smart Connect allows each of MR90X's wireless bands to use the same wireless settings. MR90X balances network demand and assigns your devices to the band with the best signal and speed. This keeps your devices always running optimally when you walk around your home.

The latest security standard, WPA3, offers improved comprehensive WiFi protection to defend your devices and private information against brute-force attacks.

Without needing technical knowledge or reading installation instructions in advance, just follow the on-screen directions with the MERCUSYS app to set up your router in minutes. The MERCUSYS app helps you set and manage your WiFi at home or away through your iOS or Android devices.
