Archer C54 is an AC1200 dual-band wireless router. Ultra-fast dual-band Wi-Fi – AC1200 standard provides ideal speeds for streaming 4K video and fast downloads. Enhanced Wi-Fi coverage – Four antennas and Beamforming technology ensure stable wireless connections and optimal network coverage. Three operating modes – router, access point and range extender modes provide comprehensive network support. Parental control function – allows you to manage Internet access. Guest network – provides guests with Internet access while ensuring the security of main network resources. Smooth HD transmission – IGMP Proxy/Snooping, Bridge and Tag VLAN functions contribute to optimal IPTV transmission. IPv6 support – IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) compliance. Small size – does not take up much space and blends perfectly into any interior.
Fast Wi-Fi network in two bands
For devices requiring higher bandwidth, the 5 GHz band is ideal, providing faster and smoother connections, while for other devices the stable 2.4 GHz band will be fully sufficient.
Wi-Fi range throughout the home
Four high-performance external antennas will deliver the Wi-Fi signal to every corner of your home. Beamforming technology detects devices and transmits a strong Wi-Fi signal to them, even if they are in a remote location or have low power.
Interference-free communication
With MU-MIMO technology, Archer C54 increases the efficiency of its connections, helping devices achieve optimal performance. Simultaneous transmission on two MU-MIMO devices can be as smooth as with one device – provided that the service provider provides sufficient bandwidth.
Three working modes:
1. Router mode (default): Connect an Ethernet cable to instantly create a private wireless network and provide access to all your Wi-Fi devices.
2. Access point mode: Transform your wired network into a wireless network.
3. Extender Mode: Extend the range of your wireless network.
