BUILT EXCLUSIVELY FOR GAMING
Engineered purely for gaming, the Linksys WRT32X Gaming Router with Killer
Prioritization Engine provides a dominating home network.
This high-performance gaming router synchronizes with Killer-enabled
PCs--from brands such as Alienware, Gigabyte, MSI and Razer--to reduce peak ping
times by up to 77% and deliver smooth, lag-free gaming.*
You gain an unrivaled advantage over your competition in MOBAs, shooters, and
other games where a single millisecond can mean victory or
defeat.
LOWER PEAK PING UP TO 77%
We partnered with Killer Networking, industry leaders in gaming networking,
to develop a Wi-Fi router for hard-core gamers. The WRT32X uses the Killer
Prioritization Engine to identify, prioritize, and accelerate your gaming
traffic above all other devices and activities on your home Wi-Fi.
Gaming PCs may experience less than optimal ping rates when the network is
under load. When matched with a Killer-enabled PC, the WRT32X gaming router
automatically syncs using the Killer Prioritization Engine to reduce peak ping
by up to 77%.* The result, unparalleled gaming-conquering response rates no
matter what other devices on the network are doing.
CUSTOM-BUILT FIRMWARE BOOSTS PERFORMANCE
Enjoy exceptional online gaming performance from specially engineered
software. Gaming-optimized firmware works to minimize response times, thus
providing a virtually lag-free connection when you need it most: in the midst of
a heated competition.
You won't lose your edge even if your roommates or LAN party are streaming,
gaming, or strategizing with you over voice chat about how to take down the
competition.
ULTRA-FAST WI-FI
The WRT32X gives you dominating Next-Gen AC Wi-Fi speeds up to 3.2 Gbps that
keep you at the top of your game. Experience exceptionally smooth, responsive
gameplay. The Killer Priorization Engine will reliably fast-track gaming traffic
whether you're using a wired or Wi-Fi connection.
POWERFUL INTERFACE FOR ULTIMATE CONTROL OVER WI-FI
TRAFFIC
The intuitive interface lets you see your home's Internet traffic. You can
monitor connected devices, manage advanced networking settings, and conduct
speed tests with just a few mouse clicks.
With the gaming-focused UI dashboard, you can check network traffic speeds,
check VPN and network storage status, see Killer device connection status, and
also control port-forwarding. You'll know at a glance whether your PC or console
games are performing optimally.
MU-MIMO PROVIDES STUNNING MULTI-DEVICE PERFORMANCE
Thanks to MU-MIMO technology, the WRT32X Gaming Router can handle even the
most bandwidth-intensive environments. MU-MIMO builds upon longtime broadcasting
cornerstones--such as spatial multiplexing, beamforming, and scheduling
algorithms--to boost overall throughput and distribute bandwidth fairly between
devices. Each connected client device receives its own dedicated data stream, so
users won't have to compete with one another for bandwidth. Multiple users can
simultaneously engage in 4K video streaming, play online games, and perform
other data-intensive tasks without latency or buffering.
DFS CERTIFIED
Dynamic frequency selection (DFS) certification from the FCC not only allows
operation at 160MHz enabling Tri-Stream160, but it also triples the channels
available at 80MHz so the WRT32X can operate in the clearest airspace that other
routers aren't allowed.
DESIGNED TO DOMINATE
The WRT32X features a performance-grade 1.8 GHz dual-core CPU, custom-built
firmware and user interface, four external adjustable antennas with high-power
amplifiers, and high-efficiency heatsink. Aesthetically, it boasts a stealthy
design, sleek matte-black finish, and blue LED lights-the perfect complement to
any gaming environment.
LINKSYS AUTO FIRMWARE UPGRADE
Linksys automatically pushes software updates to your router overnight and
seamlessly brings the latest features and security to your home network. The
WRT32X will be consistently getting better over time.
PRO-GRADE GIGABIT ETHERNET CONNECTIVITY

with four ports, making it ideal for connecting multiple gaming rigs or consoles
at your next LAN party.
