Asus 4G-AC53U

details: AC750 Dual-Band LTE Wi-Fi Router with Parental Controls
hardware type: Mobile Router (3G, 4G, 5G)
date added: 2019-03-23
Asus 4G-AC53U features the latest LTE Category 6 mobile broadband, which combines two cellular bands to give you internet download speeds of up to 300Mbps — 2X faster than LTE Category 4, and 7X faster than 3G (HSPA+) — so you can share even the biggest files and stream 4K UHD video with ease. And with 733Mbps 802.11ac Wi-Fi, you can enjoy wireless speeds that are up to 2X faster than 802.11n.

In addition to its 4G LTE capability, one of the Gigabit Ethernet LAN port can be used as a backup wired internet connection WAN port, that is activated when the 4G LTE connection fails (failover), and automatically switches back when service is restored (failback).

External mobile broadband antennas perform better than internal antennas. Indoors, the best 4G LTE reception is usually found near a window, but if this isn't practical you can easily add an antenna extension cable thanks to the detachable antennas with their standard SMA jack connectors.

With the virtual private network (VPN) server and VPN client, you can access your home network remotely or surf the internet with encryption, no need for paid VPN services or a dedicated VPN

Wi-Fi Pause turns off the internet for a while — perfect for when you need some quality family time.

The router supports the following standards:
* LTE: Downlink 300 Mbps / Uplink 50 Mbps
* HSPA+: Downlink 42.2 Mbps / Uplink 5.76 Mbps
* 4G FDD-LTE: 800 /1800 /2100 /2600
* 4G TDD-LTE: 2600
* 3G UMTS: 900 /2100
