Key Specs
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 LAN Ports: 3 (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: 3 gigabits per second (The maximum rate at which data is transferred between a network device and wireless router.)
Works With: Amazon Alexa (Compatible with or able to be connected to other smart devices or applications.)
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.)
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 Connected Devices: 25
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 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.)
Number of 2.4Ghz Streams: 2 (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: 50 (Maximum quantity of Wi-Fi satellite modules/nodes that are able to be connected to the main router in a Wi-Fi Mesh System.)
Wired Backhaul: true (Also known as Ethernet backhaul or backbone, this capability can be enabled to directly wire a secondary router or satellite to the main router via Ethernet cable. This connection allows for faster and more stable data upload.)
Ethernet Switch: true (Connects multiple devices to expand the Local Area Network (LAN).)
Routing Protocol: 1 (The protocol used for communicating and distributing information in a computer network.)
Transport Protocol: 4 (The protocol used for connection-oriented transmissions, flow control, etc. within the transport layer of the network.)

First time having mesh Wi-Fi and I love it
It works pretty good bought it August 2023 and it’s still holding up very well very fast

Awesome product.
Great product and really easy to set up as long as you’re not a dunce. Even more easy if you’re using the mesh network system. If you have a larger sized house definitely get the trio or more to make sure coverage of whole house.

Awesome Mesh
Upgraded to WiFi 6 & speed increased to over 300 mbps. I pay for 200 mbps. It replaced my old Linksys MR8300. Had to call Linksys tech support cuz ran into an issue when installing the MX2001 as the parent node. Tech support was awesome & had me up & running using the MR8300 as a child node. Ive always used Linksys products becu of their reliabilty & longevity. I use USB AC infinity fans to keep my routers/mesh systems & on my modem. Will definitely look into purchasing more mesh routers when 2023 Black Friday happens in November. Best value for your $$$
