REVOLUTIONARY Hardware

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.

Dual USB ports

The easy-to-use USB app lets you share printers, storage devices and 3G/4G (HSPA+) dongles over your entire network, and the SuperSpeed USB 3.0 port ensures ultra-fast transfer speeds. Plus, there's plenty of space around each port to accommodate bulkier devices.

MORE BANDS MEANS MORE DEVICES

Tri-Band Wi-Fi

Having an ASUS RT-AC3200 is like having three wireless routers in one. The two separate 5 GHz wireless bands — each with speeds up to 1300 Mbps — and the single 600 Mbps 2.4 GHz wireless band all work simultaneously. This means you can enjoy lag-free online gaming, smooth 4K video streaming and uninterrupted file downloading on every device connected to your home network.

AiRadar beamforming

ASUS AiRadar intelligently strengthens wireless connectivity using 802.11ac universal beamforming technology, high-power amplification and exclusive ASUS RF fine-tuning.

RT-AC3200 features AiRadar with universal beamforming to make your Wi-Fi faster, clearer and stronger

Adaptive QoS

ASUS Adaptive Quality of Service (QoS) optimizes and prioritizes bandwidth, with presets for gaming, media streaming, VoIP, web browsing and file transfers. It supports major consoles including PlayStation®3, PlayStation®4, PS4™ Pro, PlayStation®Vita, Wii U, 3DS and Xbox One.

Powerful online multitasking

RT-AC3200 has a data pipeline that's around 20 times larger than conventional routers — up to 300,000 data sessions — for exceptionally smooth performance.

SMART CONNECTIONS FOR FULL-SPEED NETWORKING




Tri-band Smart Connect

Our 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 get better range and faster, more reliable connections — all the time!

With Tri-Band Smart Connect enabled, RT-AC3200 gives you up to 3X faster downloads — and up to a 39% overall Wi-Fi performance boost when compared to competing tri-band AC3200 routers with standard dual-band smart connect!3

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.

Hardware NAT

Removes the bottleneck between the internet and the home network, giving WAN-to-LAN performance that's between 2-5 times faster than a traditional software-based NAT.

Dual WAN support

Configure one of the LAN ports as a WAN to use two internet connections, either to share internet traffic between them or so that one can be used as a backup connection should one connection fail.

Tested for Compatibility

RT-AC3200, like all ASUS networking products, is subjected to exhaustive compatibility testing during its development. RT-AC3200 works flawlessly with a vast range of adapters, media players and other wireless devices to ensure the best performance — it even supports the latest-generation Xbox® One and PlayStation® 4 game consoles.

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.

RT-AC3200 is tested for great compatibility with a vast range of wireless devices and even the latest-generation Xbox® One and PlayStation® 4 game consoles

the powerful, user-friendly interface

ASUSWRT

RT-AC3200 features the enhanced ASUSWRT graphical user interface, which gives you easy access to the 30-second, 3-step web-based installation process3. 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.
