Asus has unveiled the ROG NeoCore Wi-Fi 8 router concept at CES, emphasizing improved range and lower latency for gamers and smart homes. The device is designed with an industrial look and ROG branding, targeting enthusiasts and gamers seeking high-end networking performance. The router will be built on the AiMesh platform, allowing multiple Asus routers to form a mesh network, and will feature the Ai Network Engine for optimized throughput and latency. Wi-Fi 8 aims to address connectivity challenges such as signal degradation, weak communication for low-power devices, network congestion, and bandwidth inefficiency, with Asus planning to release its first Wi-Fi 8 routers and mesh systems later this year.
