![]() All this while data was moved onto and off a Samsung Tab Pro S. It easily cleared my informal saturation test by playing videos on an iPad Pro and a Surface Pro 3 as I was listening to an internet radio station on my Macbook Air. The router may be aimed at hotshot gamers, but it does video particularly well with clear, smooth 4K video playback. It had a range of 95 feet with my iPad Pro, but Linksys doesn't sell matching mesh extensions, although its Velop mesh system is quite capable. In the final analysis, the WRT 32X wasn't powerful enough to fill my 3,500-square-foot abode on its own, leaving several places (particularly in the basement) uncovered. ![]() The WRT 32X punched 534.6Mbps of data through a ceiling. The router was able to punch through walls made of metal and soundboard with 559.0Mbps and 532.1Mbps emerging on the other side, compared with Core's 662.6Mbps and 700.0Mbps. If you live in a home with lots of Wi-Fi-eating walls, the WRT 32X can help. Still, Core was able to move 384.1Mbps at 150 feet. This available bandwidth declines to 538.3Mbps (at 50 feet) and 247.0Mbps (at 100 feet), but rises to 302.4Mbps at 150 feet. That's well off the pace set by the ability of Norton Core or Eero routers to distribute up to 672.2Mbps and 573.7Mbps at 5 feet. During testing at our Utah facility using ixChariot software, the WRT 32X was a reliable midrange performer that was capable of a maximum throughput of 544.5Mbps at 15 feet it delivered 527.6Mbps at 5 feet. Size: 9.7- x 7.6- x 2.0 inches Performanceīased on a Marvell 88W8964 Wi-Fi chip, the WRT 32X can build a AC3200 802.11ac network. Processor/Memory/Storage: 1.8GHz Marvell dual core/512MB/256MB Ports: 1 WAN/4LAN gigabit per second, USB 3.0, Combo USB 2.0/eSATA If that's not enough, they can be replaced with off-the-shelf replacements. The WRT 32X has four amplified screw-on antennas that are rated at 4dBi for 2.4GHz work, and 7dBi for 5GHz. It's a gamer's dream come true, with a design that reduces latency while increasing throughput. You get a single WAN and four LAN ports that can handle gigabit per second traffic, a USB 3.0 port and a combo connector for either a USB 2.0 accessory or an eSATA drive. Along the back of the router are a proprietary power port, an on-off switch, a button to connect via the Wi-Fi Protected service as well as a recessed reset button.
