  • Oogt erg goed, Snel, Prettige interface, Bijzonder veel mogelijkheden
  • Updaten duurt (te) lang
  • Asus heeft een erg leuke router in handen met de RT-N56U. De interface werkt prettig, maar het doorvoeren van wijzigingen kan erg lang duren. Soms meer dan een halve minuut. De snelheid van de router is alleszins keurig en is op niveau van de top die w...

  • Abstract:  Дизайн нового роутера от ASUS с первого взгляда вызывает мысли о самолетах-невидимках и стелс-технологиях, а при его включении на лицевой панели начинают красиво подмигивать синие светодиоды, выполненные в форме четырехконечных звезд. Герой нашего обзора ...

  • Плюсами роутера можно назвать в первую очередь разгрузку WiFi-сети. Фактически имеем как бы два маршрутизатора, работающих в разных диапазонах, и, соответственно, лучшую работу смартфонов и планшетов. В свою очередь 5-гигагерцовый позволяет добиться более...

  • В итоге, ASUS RT-N56U – это двухдиапазонный беспроводной маршрутизатор Wi-Fi 802.11n с четырьмя гигабитными LAN-портами и парой разъемов USB 2.0. Сразу два USB позволят пользователю одновременно подключить пару разноплановых устройств, например хранилище ...
