router that supports multi-user MIMO for
simultaneous data streams as well as
beamforming a process that narrows the
focus of the R 6700 signal and sends it

consider a mesh router system for
seamless coverage over a greater space
like the Google home Wi-Fi coming up

install and manage various settings
either via the web interface or the
mobile app you'll also be able to set up
parental controls that offer a
considerable amount of customizations
including quality of service or QoS
which prioritizes traffic so that more
important traffic can pass first the
result is a performance improvement for
critical network traffic this is a
feature not usually found on routers in
this price range one convenient feature
for VPN users is that with the R 6700
you can input your VPN credentials
straight into the router and get
continual VPN protection across all your
devices simultaneously
léa the are 6,700 performs well when it
comes to regular storage and network
attached storage drives so if you share
files on your network on regular hard
drives or keep your media on an na S
Drive you'll get fast transfers and
streams

and bells for doing more than the
average day online gaming or streaming
the s USAG rapture GT - ax 11000 priced
under three hundred and seventy dollars
is future ready and a beast when it
comes to wireless routers the wrong
rapture GT - ax 11000 is a gaming model
as the raw brand notes and the device
has gain boosting features but it's also
good for everything you might want to
throw at it not just online games the
GTA X 11000 sports the very latest Wi-Fi
6 802 point 11 ax standard for extremely
fast speeds plus it has a dantana's to
help with Wi-Fi coverage even for larger
homes most wireless routers also include
Gigabit Ethernet for wired connections
but the rapture GTA X 11,000 goes one
step further with a 2.5 gigabytes per
second Ethernet port capable of much
higher hardline speeds for most this
wireless router is over SPECT and is
built for the most demanding networks
with peak aggregate throughput of nearly
11,000 megabytes per second with its
Wi-Fi radar the GTA X 11,000 can analyze
the surrounding environment and use DFS
band switching to hop the dedicated
gaming band to the best channel to give
you maximum performance although the
ESU's GTA X 11,000 is focused on gaming
it is also a good home router as well
with quality of service security and
parental controls it not only lets you
set up adaptive QoS to prioritize the
available bandwidth it also blocks
objectionable material and schedules
times when using the
web is off-limits for example the GTA X

users can log on if you are a parent
this may come in quite handy
the raagh rapture GTA X 11,000 offers
the highest speed and capacity for
gamers and enthusiasts sure the router
is big and expensive but if you have the
need for speed the GTA X 11,000 should
be on your wish list up next we have the
Google Nest Wi-Fi router our pick for
the best smart mesh router if you've
been waiting for the Google Wi-Fi in
Google home to come together as one your
wait is over the Google Nest Wi-Fi
router is the newest model that finally
incorporates Google home into its
experience starting at 150 dollars the
nest Wi-Fi covers up to 2,200 square
feet but can be expanded to extend that
coverage generally we give little love
to routers once that are set up they're
typically left hidden behind a cabinet
or entertainment system and forgotten
unless a problem arises here the
integration of Google assistant with the
Wi-Fi point changes everything not only
is the Wi-Fi point helpful and expanding
coverage in the home but it can be used
to do all the same things as any of
Google's smart speakers it essentially
doubles as a nest mini speaker allowing
you to play music access Google
assistant and even control other
connected smart home gadgets with your
voice actions the nest Wi-Fi access
point is router first smart speaker
second by itself the router delivers
upwards of 2,200 square feet of coverage
while each Wi-Fi point adds another
1,600 square feet the benefit here is
that you can scale the set up
accordingly to deliver proper coverage
throughout your home of course this
isn't something you can achieve with
most routers unless they're designed
with mesh networking in mind to set up
the nest Wi-Fi you will need the Google
home app this is because part of the
system is technically a Google home
speaker making it easier to manage both
within the same app with the Google Nest
Wi-Fi not only will you be able to get
excellent Wi-Fi coverage but the nest
Wi-Fi system can be used to control your
home's various connected devices and
also doubles as your smart assistant
then S Wi-Fi is one of the best
expandable mesh routers available
