- Number Of LAN Ports: 2 (Number of devices able to be connected to the Local Area Network (LAN). LAN ports allow wired connections to other networking devices (wireless access points, range extenders, etc.) in order to share the internet connection received through a WAN port.)
- Wi-Fi Speed: 1300 gigabits per second (The maximum rate at which data is transferred between a network device and wireless router.)
- Downstream Data Speed: 600 megabits per second (The maximum speed at which data is downloaded from the internet.)
- General
- Brand: ASUS
- Model Number: RT-AC1900P
- Product Name: AC Dual-Band Wi-Fi Router
- Color: Black
- Security
- Data Encryption: true
- Encryption Type: WPA-Enterprise, WPA-PSK, WPA2-Enterprise, WPA2-PSK (The security protocols or certification programs that protect the Wi-Fi network.)
- Firewall Type: SPI (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.)
- Parental Controls: true (Allows user to block unwanted content, signals, channels, networks, etc. from being received or accessed.)
- Network
- Band Technology: Dual (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 Antennas: 3
- 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 5 (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: AC (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.)
- 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: 1 (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 Supported: 1 (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).)
- Certifications Listings & Approvals
- ENERGY STAR Certified: false (Devices carrying the ENERGY STAR service mark, such as computer products and peripherals, kitchen appliances, and other products, generally use 20% to 30% less energy than required by federal standards.)

Q: What is the different between RT-AC1900 (this one)and RT-AC68P?
A: The RT-AC1900P is newer and has updated internals, including better power amplifiers and a faster 1.4 GHz dual-core processor.
Q: What is the range on the router?
A: I sit 100' passing through 3 walls for a great deal of my use and get the same speeds as if I'm in the room with the router
Q: What is the best modem to work with this router and Time warner cable?
A: Any of the Arris Surfboard modems should work, I suggest the SB6141 and any of the higher numbered models.
A: I had same issue. No one could figure it out. I means no one , not gig squad , not my internet provider and not ASUS. Turns out I went to my network settings and removed this Asus network name from the wireless list and upon rebooting PC the Network name was there as before but now if finally asked for my password and all was well. Set up does something to cause this confusion .. I also did not know you should give different names to the 2.4 and the 5 hz in your GUI set up of ASUS Modem > Go to the GUI and you can change them if you gave same names.. Hope this helps..
A: No it don’t. It’s a router only. Any modem that Best Buy has is fine. Just make sure it’s a modem only and not a modem/router combo
A: It does, I have set up using this feature.
Q: Is anyone using the AiMesh with this router. How does it work ?
A: Very easy to set up. First ensure both ASUS routers have the latest firmware installed. The unit you intend to be the node must first be joined wirelessly, even if you intend to make it wired (recommended). After update on both units, fire up main and let it boot up. Power up node and hold reset button for 5 secs to reset. When it comes to life look for in the aimesh area of the GUI for the main router. When it is located by the main router, select it and wait for it to be configured by the main. If you intend to make a wired node, disable WPS on main unit (for security reasons) and select Ethernet backhaul for the node. The aimesh handles handoffs extremely well without interruptions. Make sure you turn down your radio output level once you’re setup....to at lesser half of full for both 2.4 and 5ghz radios. Settings on main automatically transfer to the node.
Q: I need a new router and I have WOW. Does this router work well with Wow internet services?
A: This router should work with any internet service as you have a separate modem to actually connect to your ISP. The router just distributes the access to the internet by using the output signal from the modem. It should not matter what your service provider is.
