A Two-Unit ET12 Mesh Package

This configuration contains two ZenWiFi Pro ET12 units. Use the package to build a compatible AiMesh network, planning the primary router and additional node around the internet connection and household layout. Published hardware dimensions and port counts apply to each unit. Actual coverage depends on the building, placement, connection arrangement and devices using the network.

AXE11000 Tri-Band Wireless

The maximum listed link rates are 1148Mbps on 2.4GHz, 4804Mbps on 5GHz and 4804Mbps on 6GHz, with 4×4 transmit/receive support on each band. The 6GHz connection requires compatible Wi-Fi 6E clients and availability in the local product configuration. These band ratings describe wireless capabilities, with actual throughput dependent on the complete network environment.

Separate 2.5Gbps WAN and LAN

Each unit provides one 2.5Gbps WAN port, one 2.5Gbps LAN port and two Gigabit LAN ports. Plan the incoming internet connection and supported wired devices around these connections. The paired endpoints, cables and selected network configuration determine the usable speed, so check the full connection when arranging a multi-gigabit device or supported wired backhaul.

AiProtection Pro and Access Controls

Published security features include AiProtection Pro, malicious-site blocking, two-way IPS and infected-device prevention and blocking. Guest networking, parental controls and WPA3-Personal support provide further configuration options. Set up access around household members and visitors, checking client compatibility and the supported firmware and services when choosing the network’s security and management settings.

App Management and Network Tools

The ASUS Router app supports network management, alongside published VPN client/server options, Adaptive QoS, traffic monitoring and traffic analysis. Configure the features around the way connected devices use the network, then review the settings when adding equipment or changing the internet connection. AiMesh provides a path for arranging compatible ASUS units within the same network.
