Speed and Coverage
The frequency bands used by the Asus RT-AC1200 V2-AC1200 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Router are 2.4GHz and 5GHz. The 2.4GHz band offers wider coverage but slower speeds, while the 5GHz band provides faster speeds but with a shorter range. You can connect older devices that require wider coverage to the 2.4GHz band, while newer devices that demand faster speeds can utilise the 5GHz band. By supporting both bands simultaneously, the RT-AC1200 V2 allows you to optimise your network performance based on your specific usage scenarios.


802.11ac Chipset
802.11ac, often referred to as Wi-Fi 5, is a wireless networking standard chipset integrated on the Asus RT-AC1200 V2-AC1200 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Router that significantly improves its speed and efficiency. The chipset operates primarily on the 5GHz frequency band and introduced key technologies like higher data rates, wider channels (up to 160 MHz), MU-MIMO, and Beamforming to boost performance.
Dual WAN Function
The Asus RT-AC1200 V2-AC1200 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Router offers concurrent Dual WAN. It is a network configuration that employs two separate internet connections (from different ISPs) simultaneously. Traffic can be distributed across both connections to optimise bandwidth usage and performance and if one connection drops, the router automatically switches traffic to the remaining active connection, ensuring minimal disruption. This setup is designed to provide uninterrupted internet access on the RT-AC1200 V2 by acting as a safeguard against ISP-induced outages.


Robust Security
With Open system, WPA/WPA2-Personal, WPA/WPA2-Enterprise, WPS, SSH, and firewalls, the Asus RT-AC1200 V2-AC1200 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Router boasts a strong security suite. By constantly scanning for and blocking malicious websites, malware, and ransomware attacks, identifying weak points in your network and device, and shielding your smart home devices from vulnerabilities and unauthorised access; these integrated security protocols provide complete protection for your home network and connected devices.
