The built-in intelligent traffic distribution system allows you to reduce delays in games to a minimum. Responsible for the work of a dual-core processor 1.8 GHz. The eSATA port allows you to connect external drives for sharing from the network.

An ultra-efficient dual-band wireless router (router) of Wi-Fi 5 specification (802.11ac), positioned as an advanced gaming device with the Killer engine, which provides prioritization and the fastest transfer of game traffic. In fact, it is a high-end multifunctional combined network device capable of supporting high-performance cable networks (up to 4 client devices with 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet interface) or high-speed Wi-Fi networks up to Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac).

Thanks to a powerful quad-core ARM processor, large memory, 4 external detachable antennas and powerful radio output amplifiers, the LINKSYS WRT32X router can create wireless connections in the 2.4/5 GHz band at speeds up to 600/2600 Mbps. Such impressive numbers are achieved through the use of Next-Gen Multi-User-MIMO technology and dynamic channel width expansion from standard 80 to 160 MHz. The device is equipped with a USB 3.0 port and a USB 2.0/e-SATA combo connector, which allows you to connect high-speed / capacious drives and use the router as a performant file server.

Best gaming router

LINKSYS WRT32X is a fast and functional gaming router that should appeal not only to gamers. Still, for $170 it offers high speed in both bands, a ton of fine-tuning options, and a Killer processor that you're more used to seeing in more expensive and higher-ranking models.

Overclocking up to 2600 Mbps

In terms of sheer performance, the WRT32X leaves behind most modern routers under $200. For example, in the 5 GHz band, its maximum speed is 2600 Mbps, which is more than many much more expensive routers. In the 2.4 GHz band, the maximum is 600 Mbps, which is not so impressive, but a total of 3200 Mbps for a home is more than enough. Such figures are achieved through the use of Next-Gen Multi-User-MIMO technology and dynamic expansion of the channel width from standard 80 to 160 MHz. Another interesting feature is the combined USB 2.0/e-SATA port, which allows you to connect high-speed/capacious drives and use the router as a performant file server. It is paired with a regular USB 3.2 gen1 port.

Killer Priority Processor

Correct traffic circulation is facilitated by the Killer priority processor, which has proven itself in gaming peripherals from Alienware, Gigabyte, MSI and Razer. With it, you can automatically control the width of the Internet channel, which is occupied by various applications. This will allow you to comfortably watch streaming video while simultaneously downloading files from other programs, and Torrent clients and scheduled OS updates will not interfere with Skype communication. Unlike some traffic prioritization systems, which rely on the provider to label data packets, Killer really works. A particularly good increase in speed and response acceleration is observed at a frequency of 5 GHz. Throw in Beamforming, Dual WAN, built-in VPN and a bunch of other useful features, and you have an optimal gaming router that is hard to recommend.
