Controls. Every device is protected with RT-AX82U, and you

* Actual data throughput and WiFi coverage will vary from network conditions and environmental factors, including the volume
of network traffic, building material and construction, and network overhead, result in lower actual data throughput and
wireless coverage.
** To benefit from WiFi 6 features, the WiFi client needs to be WiFi 6 capable.
*** The number of speed is calculated with data rate of 2.4 GHz band and of 5 GHz band, which are respectively 574 and 4804
Mbps. And the DFS channels may not be supported in some countries due to local regulations.
