Stylish AX3000-class router aimed at home use and operation in small office environments. The model comes with full support for Wi-Fi 6 networks. Thanks to support for 160 MHz channel width and 4x4 MIMO, the wireless network can operate in 5 GHz band at a maximum channel speed of 2402 Mbps. At the 2.4 GHz carrier frequency, the maximum data exchange throughput is 574 Mbps. Connecting the device to a cable Internet service provider is implemented via a Gigabit Ethernet WAN port. A trio of LAN ports with the same 1 Gbps throughput is available on the router's interface shelf. Mercusys MR80X supports Smart Connect technology, which automatically selects the most suitable band for each device, and BSS color technology minimizes interferen...ce from other signals to improve connection quality. Beamforming technology allows detecting connected devices and focusing the Wi-Fi signal in their direction. Setup of the wireless router is performed through a web interface and with the MERCUSYS mobile app. Additional features noted in the model's firmware include a remote access server, parental control tools, and cloud access.

One of the most affordable Wi-Fi 6 routers

After the announcement of the Wi-Fi 6 standard, the market was dominated for a long time by rather expensive routers for enthusiasts, but in 2022 the balance was restored due to a large number of relatively inexpensive and surprisingly high-quality mass market routers with all the delights of the new protocol. One such popular choice is the AX3000 Mercusys MR80X dual-band router class, which supports MU-MIMO, Beamforming and OFDMA link optimization technologies, can operate in a 160 MHz band and boasts a simplified network configuration system.

Simplified setup

In addition, Mercusys MR80X supports Smart Connect technology, which automatically selects the most suitable band for each device, and BSS color technology minimizes interference from other signals for improved connection quality. Additional features in the model's firmware include a remote access server, parental control tools and cloud access. Additional modes of operation as a VPN or DHCP server, as well as DDNS and DMZ are supported. The wireless router is configured through the web interface and using the Mercusys mobile app.

Affordable and fast option for a small apartment

When evaluating the Mercusys MR80X, it's important to keep its affordable price in mind. First of all, this is an affordable option for those people who plan to upgrade an outdated or failed router. It doesn't have mesh support or USB ports for creating a home FTP server, and a not-so-powerful dual-core processor might not be able to handle a lot of simultaneous connections. This is a great option for a two-room apartment with 2 - 3 smartphones connected to the network, a laptop, a TV, a game console and a couple of other gadgets. The presence of a gigabit input port allows you to use it with fast tariff plans, and the quality of signal transmission over the air does not raise any complaints either in terms of speed or coverage quality.
