In addition, traffic monitoring allows the user to monitor Internet usage using a clear, graphical interface.

ASUS Router App
In an increasingly mobile life, it is more important than ever to be able to manage the network with the help of an app. The new ASUS Router app is designed from the ground up to be intuitive and fail-safe, enabling router setup, traffic management, connection diagnostics and even firmware updates – all without the need to power on a PC.

Super-fast AC Wi-Fi with 256QAM – Wi-Fi acceleration
The RT-AC51 supports the 5th generation Wi-Fi standard (5G Wi-Fi) thanks to the 802.11ac chipset, offering even faster WLAN transmission speeds than the previous N-standard version. It achieves up to 300 MBit/s in the 2.4 GHz frequency range and up to 433 MBit/s in the 5 GHz frequency range. The higher bandwidth provides the necessary capacity for unrestricted Wi-Fi enjoyment throughout the home. Since almost all notebooks, desktop PCs, tablets and smartphones are now dependent on a Wi-Fi connection, it is advisable to upgrade your Wi-Fi infrastructure to the next generation in order to be optimally networked with all devices in the future.

Dual band connection for entertainment pleasure without interruptions
The RT-AC51 simultaneously offers both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency ranges of up to 300Mbps and 433Mbps, enabling the router to achieve a stable overall transmission rate of up to 733Mbps. The 2.4 GHz frequency range is ideal for basic tasks such as surfing the web and downloading files, while the 5 GHz frequency range can be used to stream 3D HD content and other demanding applications.
