    Good connection

  • Red

    Too far away from the router

 
 

Drop-Free, Seamless
Dual Band Connections

If one of the main router's dual bands drops suddenly, or in case the main router can only deliver single band, the RE500 still provides stable dual-band connections, allowing you to enjoy stable and drop-free experience on all your devices.

Maximum wireless signal rates are the physical rates derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. Actual wireless data throughput and wireless coverage are not guaranteed and will vary as a result of 1) environmental factors, including building materials, physical objects, and obstacles, 2) network conditions, including local interference, volume and density of traffic, product location, network complexity, and network overhead, and 3) client limitations, including rated performance, location, connection quality, and client condition.

The product may not be compatible with routers or gateways with firmware that has been altered, is based on open source programs, or is non-standard or outdated.
