One of Tenda's top models of dual-band gigabit routers supporting Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n/ac/a standards. It is distinguished by the ability to provide high data transfer rates, which in total (in two bands) can reach 1900 Mbps. The manufacturer is positioned as a high-speed mid-range router designed for use at home or in a small office. It is recommended for use in the presence of a gigabit cable connection to the provider's network. The hardware configuration of the router is based on one of the most performant specialized ARM processors Broadcom BCM4708, which has a dual-core architecture and a high operating frequency (800 MHz). With this equipment, as well as three universal external antennas and support for Broadcom Turbo-QAM technology, the Tenda AC18 router provides data transfer...rates up to 1300 Mbps in the 5 GHz band and up to 600 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz band. In addition, there is one WAN and four LAN ports for organizing cable connections that meet the Gigabit Ethernet standard (up to 1000 Mbps). This is enough to watch high-quality streaming 4K (UHD) video, any online games, streaming and other tasks that require the rapid transmission of large traffic flows. The router can also operate in bridge, repeater or access point mode, it supports firewall, DHCP, FTP, WEB, file and print server functions (GII 3.0 port is available). Works correctly with VPN traffic.

Flagship router for gamers and streamers

Tenda AC18 is a very interesting gaming solution that provides decent wireless and wired connection speeds, as well as providing the stability that gamers need just as much as speed itself. The gamer / streamer essence of the router manifests itself in two things.

Prioritization of traffic for streaming video

The first is the ability to flexibly configure the traffic priority, so you can set what kind of channel width you need to leave for streaming video, which one — for the game, and how much to leave for other users. The second is in the design of the router, which you definitely can’t call classic. Chopped sharp outlines, in the style of a stealth bomber or a Lamborghini make the device really unusual and eye-catching. For a regular router, this could be a disadvantage, but for a gaming router, it’s quite an advantage.

4 gigabit LAN ports and USB

In terms of connectivity, Tenda's flagship router boasts four gigabit LAN ports and USB 3.0 for connecting flash drives, external drives, network printers, etc. The antennas are non-detachable, the power of each is 3 dBi, which is slightly lower than that of top competing models, therefore, in a large house with many rooms, walls and blind spots, signal quality and uniformity are not the best. Well, I would like to get MU-MIMO support for this money. But there is a repeater mode and Beamforming, which improves network performance and improves its quality.

Bandwidth 1900 Mbps

Like many modern routers, Tenda AC18 operates with two bands — 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, 802.11 a / b / g / n / ac standards are supported. The total access speed when using MIMO technology reaches 1900 Mbps, of which 1300 Mbps can be obtained at a frequency of 5 GHz and 600 Mbps for 2.4 GHz. To configure the network, there is both a classic web interface and a mobile application with simplified settings. Both have an intuitive interface in Russian, so network debugging will not create problems for inexperienced users.
