​11ac The Latest High‎-Speed Wireless Networking

The Edimax BR‎-6288ACL router supports the latest IEEE 802.11ac wireless standard‎,‎ meaning higher data rates in the 5GHz band‎.‎ With 150Mbps speeds in the 2.4GHz band and 433Mbps speeds in 5GHz‎,‎ the BR‎-6288ACL is ideal for HD video streaming and large file transfers‎.‎ The router is also backward compatible with 802.11a/b/g/n to ensure compatibility with legacy Wi‎-Fi devices‎.‎

Concurrent Dual‎-Band Wi‎-Fi Connectivity

The Edimax BR‎-6288ACL router provides simultaneous 2.4GHz ‎(‎802.11n‎)‎ and 5GHz ‎(‎802.11ac‎)‎ wireless network connectivity for maximum flexibility of use‎.‎

Smartphone App and Smart iQ Setup

Features smartphone app setup or web‎-based setup for quick‎,‎ automatic installation with no CD required‎,‎ to get your product up and running without any difficult configurations or hassle‎.‎ The smartphone app and web‎-UI also feature a new automatic firmware update function‎.‎

Auto Firmware Upgrade

Don’t worry about downloading new firmware files and keeping your router up to date‎.‎ The BR‎-6288ACL supports auto firmware upgrade through the smartphone app and web‎-UI‎,‎ so you can check the firmware status and upgrade to the latest version quickly and automatically – minimum fuss required‎.‎

Green Wi‎-Fi TX Power Switch

Featuring a new hardware slide switch to easily adjust between normal and green TX power ‎(‎the strength of the Wi‎-Fi signal‎)‎‎.‎ In normal mode the device transmits with maximum TX power for wide coverage in large homes‎.‎ But if you only need Wi‎-Fi in your room or inside a smaller house‎,‎ you can switch to green mode to reduce TX power to less than 75% and reduce energy usage by up to 30%‎.‎

Edimax’s Revolutionary iQoS

iQoS is Edimax’s solution for a quicker‎,‎ easier‎,‎ and more effective way to manage Internet bandwidth‎.‎ While Quality of Service ‎(‎QoS‎)‎ functionality is a common feature in routers across the market‎,‎ typically only advanced users have the knowledge required to set up the complex parameters‎.‎ Edimax though has redesigned QoS with user‎-friendliness and accessibility in mind‎.‎ A simple and intuitive user interface allows users to arrange bandwidth priority settings in just a few clicks‎.‎ With iQoS‎,‎ you can enjoy gaming‎,‎ video streaming‎,‎ VoIP applications and BT clients at the same time without the usual nightmare of lag and interruptions‎.‎ An original‎,‎ efficient and effective means of managing your Internet bandwidth‎.‎

Multi‎-SSID & VLAN Support

Multi‎-SSID enables users to configure up to ten separate SSIDs ‎(‎2.4GHz x 5 and 5GHz x 5‎)‎ in order to group and manage users according to your requirements‎.‎ In addition‎,‎ each SSID can be assigned a different VLAN ID‎,‎ so users with multiple VLANs can manage the network access level of each SSID – ensuring security and protecting confidential or critical network resources‎.‎
