*Maximum wireless transmission rates are the physical rates derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. Range and coverage specifications are based upon test results under normal usage conditions. Actual wireless transmission rate and wireless coverage are not guaranteed and will vary as a result of 1) environmental factors, including building materials, physical objects and obstacles, 2) network conditions, including local interference, volume and density of traffic, product location, network complexity, and network overhead and 3) client limitations, including rated performance, location, connection quality, and client condition.

Use of Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), and features including OFDMA, MU-MIMO, WPA3 and 1024-QAM require clients to also support the corresponding features.

Saving clients' battery power requires clients to also support the 802.11ax Wi-Fi standard. Actual power reduction may vary as a result of network conditions, client limitations, and environmental factors.

§Latency improvement requires that the AP and all clients support OFDMA.

^This router may not support all the mandatory features as ratified in Draft 3.0 of IEEE 802.11AX specification
