4X Capacity. 2X Faster.*

WiFi 6 provides faster wireless speeds with OFDMA, BSS coloring and MU-MIMO technologies, and it also boosts network efficiency, so all your devices get their fair share of WiFi bandwidth. It's perfect for busy networks with lots of different WiFi devices, such as laptops, smartphones and smart home devices.

True Multi-Gigabit Wired Speeds

For true multi-gigabit performance, you need both WAN and LAN connections that support these speeds. TUF Gaming AX6000 features both WAN and LAN aggregation, so you can enjoy 5 Gbps wired speeds from your modem all the way to your PC and NAS.

WiFi that Goes Further

We've designed TUF Gaming AX6000 to give you the widest possible WiFi coverage. It uses OFDMA, a new technology in WiFi 6 that allows signals to travel further than they can in WiFi 5. With a 4x4 MIMO configuration and separate 2.4 GHz and 5GHz antennas to reduce interference, along with other enhancements like beamforming, which focuses the signal towards each device, TUF Gaming AX6000 reaches every corner.

Flexible and Scalable Wireless Mesh Networking

If you need more coverage or new functions, you can simply add another compatible router to your AiMesh network at any time!

Stable and Durable

TUF Gaming AX6000 is engineered to deliver maximum WiFi performance. The vent location and double heatsink design improve cooling for increased stability, and the fixed antennas and metal port protectors increase physical durability.
