- General
- Brand: ARRIS
- Model Number: W133
- Product Name: SURFboard mAX Pro Wireless-AX11000 Tri-Band Mesh Wi-Fi 6 System
- Color: Black
- Security
- Data Encryption: true
- Encryption Type: WPA, WPA2 (The security protocols or certification programs that protect the Wi-Fi network.)
- Firewall Type: NAT (The method the firewall uses to filter and process data to increase network security, primarily by blocking malicious traffic requests while allowing legitimate traffic through.)
- Security Features: Guest Wi-Fi Network
- Parental Controls: true (Allows user to block unwanted content, signals, channels, networks, etc. from being received or accessed.)
- Network
- Band Technology: Tri (Refers to the number of frequency bands used to wirelessly transmit an internet signal. For example, dual-band devices may use one 2.4 and one 5 GHz band, while tri-band devices may use one 2.4 and two 5 GHz bands. Multiple bands also provide more flexibility for designating connected devices to specific band use.)
- Ethernet Standard: 10/100/1000 (Each standard is a variation of the IEEE 802.3 set of computer networking technologies known as Ethernet. New versions evolved to include higher bandwidth, different physical media, and other new and improved features. Standards are often denoted by speeds (in Megabits per second). For example, a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port transmits at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps).)
- Number Of Connected Devices: 150
- Number of Antennas: 8
- Frequency Band: 2.4 GHz, 5.0 GHz (Bands may be grouped into categories such as low- and high-band VHF (Very High Frequency), low- and high-band UHF (Ultra High Frequency), or certain frequency channels (measured in MHz or GHz). Generally, higher frequencies transmit information faster but have shorter range than lower frequencies.)
- Wireless Networking Standard: Wi-Fi 6 (The wireless networking standard used by the device. Each iteration of the standard developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance corresponds to an existing IEEE 802.11 protocol; for example, standard 802.11ac (or AC) is termed Wi-Fi 5. Refers specifically to the standard the device is designed to use, but ultimately determines product interoperability and backward compatibility including previous versions.)
- Wireless Standard: AX, AC, N (The wireless networking protocol used by the device. Each iteration of the protocol is based on the 802.11 standard developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standards Association. Denoted by letters following 802.11 (802.11a, 802.11ac, etc.), each version, published in alphabetical order, encompasses all previous versions.)
- Wi-Fi Range: 6000 square feet (The device will provide a Wi-Fi connection to this approximate area.)
- Input/Output Technology: MU-MIMO (Multi-user Multiple-Input Multiple Output) (Generally, multiple-input multiple-output communication technologies allow for more signals to be transmitted at a single time, which can improve the device's overall performance.)
- Number of 2.4Ghz Streams: 1 (A router's streams are like lanes on a highway. The more streams a router has, the less traffic congestion. Because the 2.4 GHz band is used to transmit wireless signals to a wide variety of devices, there is often high amounts of traffic on that stream. But with multiple streams, each can be designated to a specific device for optimal performance. For example, if one 2.4 GHz stream is assigned to one device, such as a desktop computer, it leaves the remaining streams open for guest users, devices that use more data, or devices with specific band compatibility.)
- Number of 5.0Ghz Streams: 2 (A router's streams are like lanes on a highway. The more streams a router has, the less traffic congestion. The 5.0 GHz band provides high speed, short-range data transmission and typically has less traffic than the 2.4 GHz band. With multiple streams, each can be designated to a specific device for optimal performance. For example, if one 5.0 GHz stream is assigned to one device, such as a streaming media player, it leaves the remaining streams open for guest users, devices that need less data, or devices with specific band compatibility.)
- Wi-Fi Mesh System: true (A single wireless network consisting of a main router (connected directly to a modem) that connects to a series of satellite modules or nodes placed around the home. Routers with this capability promote stronger, faster wireless signals as well as increase Wi-Fi coverage by reducing interference and eliminating dead zones.)
- Number of Wi-Fi Satellites Included: 1 (Quantity of Wi-Fi satellite modules/nodes for a Wi-Fi Mesh System that come with the product.)
- Number of Wi-Fi Satellites Supported: 2 (Maximum quantity of Wi-Fi satellite modules/nodes that are able to be connected to the main router in a Wi-Fi Mesh System.)
- Ethernet Switch: true (Connects multiple devices to expand the Local Area Network (LAN).)
- Transport Protocol: DHCP, DNS (The protocol used for connection-oriented transmissions, flow control, etc. within the transport layer of the network.)

A: no drops for me. no device has had an issue. 3 phones, 2 Motorola and an iPhone. 2 iPad's and 2 kindles. amazon fire stick, Apple TV and 2 Vizio 4k TVs all working with no issues. upgraded one of 2 PCs with an Intel wifi6 card and getting same gigabit speed as Ethernet.
A: Hi Sam, Yes you can connect the switch to the LAN ports of mAX Pro and use it for connecting your wired devices.Note that do not connect the satellite wired to the main AP via the ethernet switch. You can either establish the wireless backhaul or make direct connection with the main AP.
Q: Does the satellite unit have any LAN inputs?
A: Yes, 2 WAN and 2 LAN ports.
Q: I have a weather station that works only on 2.4 can I set this up to connect to the 2.4 band only?
A: Hi Geoff, In The SURFboard mAX router there isn't a provision to manually select the band that you want to connect to because it utilizes smart band steering algorithms that would let your client device connect to the best possible band.
A: We Apologize for the inconvenience. Our engineering team is currently looking into the issue and will consider it for future product updates
A: Yes you absolutely can set it up with wired Ethernet connection.
Q: Will this work with the Arris S33 modem?
A: undefined
A: Yes, this router can be placed in Bridge (AP) mode to extend your current network.
