Description

RT-AC3200 is a tri-band 802.11ac router featuring Tri-Band Smart Connect, an incredible feature that automatically maximizes the performance of each and every wireless device. With the fast combined data rate of 3200 Mbps (2600 Mbps on the two 5 GHz bands plus 600 Mbps on the 2.4 GHz band), RT-AC3200 allows every device to work at full speed, ensuring lag-free online gaming, silky-smooth 4K/UHD video streams, and effortless downloading. Add to this superb coverage and total security, and you'll see why RT-AC3200 takes your network to the next level!

  • Six external high-performance antennas

    RT-AC3200 uses two 802.11ac networks, each with a three transmit, three receive (3x3) antenna configuration. This is made possible by its six external high performance antennas, and allows more devices to connect faster with better stability.
  • Smart connectivity for full-spreed networking

    With more and more Wi-Fi devices competing for bandwidth on home networks, ranging from slower legacy devices to the latest 802.11ac products, there's a real need for a smart way to make sure every device is working at full speed. RT-AC3200 uses tri-band Smart Connect technology to do just that, along with AiRadar universal beamforming for enhanced Wi-Fi coverage and stability.
  • Tri-band Smart Connect

    Tri-Band Smart Connect technology automatically assigns each device to either the 2.4 GHz band or one of the two 5 GHz bands, according to the device's speed, its signal strength, and how busy each band is. This means you never have to decide which band to use, as RT-AC3200 does it all for you. This means you get better range and faster, more reliable connections — all the time!
  • AiRadar beamforming

    ASUS AiRadar intelligently strengthens wireless connectivity using 802.11ac universal beamforming technology, high-power amplification and exclusive ASUS RF fine-tuning.
  • Life in the fast lan

    For the fastest wired networking performance, RT-AC3200 has a dedicated Gigabit Ethernet WAN port plus four Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports. Its powerful hardware-accelerated NAT removes the bottleneck between the wired LAN and the Internet for a lag-free gaming experience.
  • Time Machine support

    Any USB storage device attached to RT-AC3200 can be used in conjunction with Time Machine backups for your Apple devices.
  • WPS

    Any device supporting the Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) standard can be connected instantly simply by pressing the WPS button on RT-AC3200.
  • VPN support

    Create a VPN server or turn your network-connected devices into VPN-enabled clients — with no need for paid VPN services.
  • Powerful, user-friendly interface

    RT-AC3200 features the enhanced ASUSWRT graphical user interface, which gives you easy access to the 30-second, 3-step web-based installation process. It's also where you can configure AiCloud 2.0 and all RT-AC3200's advanced options. ASUSWRT is web-based, so it doesn't need a separate app, or restrict what you can change via mobile devices — you get full access to everything, from any device that can run a web browser.
  • Airprotection with Trend Micro for advanced security

    AiProtection, incorporating state-of-the-art, three-pronged security from Trend Micro, gives you enterprise-level security in the home — it's one of the most secure home routers you can buy! It constantly monitors the health and safety of your network for total peace of mind.
  • Create your own personal cloud

    ASUS AiCloud keeps you close to your data wherever and whenever you have an Internet connection. It links your home network and online storage service, giving you access to your files using the AiCloud mobile app on your iOS, Android smartphones or via a personalized browser URL. You can share photos instantly to services like Facebook, Flickr or Dropbox directly from the AiCloud interface. Even better, AiCloud can be connected to another compatible router to expand your personal cloud even further.
