Frequently Asked Questions
Does the RAXE300 support Link Aggregation for wired devices?
Yes, the RAXE300 supports LACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol) on two of its 1Gbps LAN ports, allowing for a combined 2Gbps wired connection to compatible NAS or server hardware.
Is the 6GHz band backward compatible with older WiFi 5 devices?
No, the 6GHz band is exclusive to WiFi 6E-certified devices. However, the RAXE300 is a tri-band router, meaning it still provides 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands for full backward compatibility with legacy devices.
Can the 2.5Gbps port be used for internal LAN connectivity?
Yes, the 2.5Gbps port is versatile and can be configured as either a WAN port for multi-gigabit internet or as a LAN port for high-speed local data transfers to a switch or workstation.
