High-speed Internet connection is an absolute must today. The Archer T4U USB adapter will connect you to a modern WiFi network with ultra-fast and stable connection without any delays. This allows you to play online games or stream HD video. The Archer T4U has two built-in high gain antennas. This means that you will have a high quality signal even in places far away from your WiFi router.
The adapter offers the possibility to use 802.11ac technology in the 5 GHz or 2.4 GHz band with 802.11n technology, which guarantees high flexibility of use. It provides very high performance wireless network up to 300 Mbps (2.4 GHz) or 867 Mbps (5 GHz). The 2.4GHz band is ideal for networking, social networking and email, while the 5GHz band enables seamless HD streaming and multiplayer online gaming, ensuring extremely fast and seamless home entertainment.
The Archer T4U is equipped with MU-MIMO technology, so it is able to create two data streams at the same time, improving the bandwidth and performance of the entire network when connected to a MU-MIMO-compatible router.
