802.11ac theoritcal max speed is 867 mbps.. The max speed listed for this product is 433. Why is that?

Hi,The standard 802.11ac defines max Wi-Fi speed 433.67Mbps per single stream at 5GHz, not 867Mbps. Edimax EW-7811UTC supports 1 stream of 802.11ac ( 5GHz ) with Wi-Fi speed is 433Mbps and 1 stream of 802.11n ( 2.4GHz ) with Wi-Fi speed is 150Mbps. So we call it AC600.And Edimax has the 867Mbps USB adapter as well on Amazon. Edimax EW-7822UAC USB adapter supports two stream of 802.11ac ( 867Mbps ) and two stream of 802.11n ( 300Mpbs ). So it was called AC1200.

Hi my name is Mario Alba just want to know if this product works on macbook pro

Also, keep in mind that the maximum effective bandwidth of USB 2.0 (minus overhead) is 280 mbps.

I usually get 60 -70 MBps . This is much better than a wireless connection. This is an alternative to not having a ethernet connection.

AC1300 and AC1750 routers use a chip with 802.11ac protocol to transmit at 1300 or 1750 Mbps on their 5GHz band, and a second 802.11n chip to transmit at up to 400Mbps 2.4GHz. AC1900 routers use a single triband chip, that allows for more data to be transmitted over the 2.4GHz and 5 GHz bands. 600Mbps and 1900Mbps respectively. The end result is a data transfer rate of 1900Mbps between devices that have an AC1900 compliant equipment, under ideal conditions. For many users there will be little real world difference between an AC 1750 and an AC1900 router. And unless your other devices are equipped to take advantage of the AC1900 protocol you will see NO difference. AC1900 routers tend to be a little higher end, as they are considered a flagship product, and may have additional features and services that an AC1750 or AC1300 model may not have.

This is a "it depends". If you are using the new ac wireless standard and have a good signal it may offer noticeable speed improvement. As slower standards and/or signal quality degrades any improvement at the diskstation side will become unimportant. The real question is can you really get much 100Mbps real throughput with *your* wireless environment?Some may disagree but I find a wired connection to be the most dependable for high-throughput situations. There are too many variables to be more specific but I hope this answer will help at least a little. This is a "it depends".

Because unless your an electrician or cable specialist that information is unnecessary. Main focus is the Ghz level. Obviously the higher the better which allows more signal for services. Good luck recommend 2Ghz or higher for better performance. Kyle CAE Xfinity Tech Support 1-800-comcast

N is just the next wireless standard (IEEE 802.11). Home WiFi routers have progress from A to B, G, and now N corresponding to speeds of approximately 1.5Mb, 11Mb, 52Mb, and 300Mb. Note that you will only get the 300Mbps speed if your computer (or other wireless device) also has a wireless-N adapter. If it is lower speed, this router will be backwards compatible and run at that speed. Also note that while your WiFi in your house may run at 300Mbps, your DSL connection through your phone line will not. Max speed for this ADSL2 modem are about 10Mbps, so that is about the best you can expect if you are paying for that level of service.

Well the amount is not really determinded by hardware but more about bandwidth. U can support about 8 without experiencing lag in wifi speed. If its wired dont need to worry. And your internet speed determinds this as well. If u have a lower tier speed then you can support less even because of lag.

Hi, I have a Linksys Ea6500 router and tried the Amped Wireless Access point that can delivery at AC speed. The AP seemed to lock up a lot. I then bought and tried the Amped Wireless Access Point that can delivery at N speed. It was more reliable with not the best range. I then bought another Linksys Ea6500. I set this up at a LAN to WAN. Extended my network with great range at half the cost. I did have two different SSIDs. I did try it at LAN to LAN. This allows one SSID. Not sure if this worked or I set it up correctly. Switched back to LAN to WAN.

I have 35Mbps and it works fine. I was able to use it with a split Ethernet cable connection to my router also without any problems. I would advise against using a wireless connection based on my experience though.

It's a great router! If you have a late model Apple product or other high performance equipment that has the 802.11AC WiFi installed, then you want to get this modem/router, it's a noticeable difference from the 802.11N.

It is 1.8 ghz buddy.Have a look at the product description.It is clearly mentioned.

I have it hooked to my 2012 macbook pro USB 3.0 and have the card in the laptop off. IT is FAST! 80211.AC I get 117MBps download and 10 mbps upload. I pay for 105/10. That is all wireless.I'm running Mavericks 10.9.3

Why, Soitenly! Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk. The connection is 100% compatible. The fastest speed you'll get would be limited but would not surpass the maximum USB 2 speed, anyway. The biggest impediment would be that AC speeds are limited to line of sight. AC is not suited to going through walls or floors. It is designed to work within a room. Your maximum network speed will be on the 802.11N usage. You will also need to have an 802.11AC Router to take advantage of this equipment. Make sure you buy a tri band router. Good luck!

The AC wireless is the current top technology in wifi internet ensuring much higher speeds than the previous norms and so far I had no problems with the Qosmio x75 a 7180 wireless card which is an intel ac 7260. Both wifi and Bluetooth are working perfectly.

Speed not an ac router. Asus routers that are AC have that listed in the actual naming of the device. Note this router is outstanding for a large condo.

Easily connect! The letters corresponds to the maximum throughput. B is 11mbps, G is 55mbps and N is 248mbps. It shows the output of the wifi.
