Razer unveils its first gaming router

Razer has unveiled its first gaming router, the Razer Sila.

The router is aimed at the gaming market and includes a number of features designed to improve connection reliability and speed.

Bet you a Mikrotik for half the price can match the performance.

But can I play Super Mario on it?

The Razer Sila is a tri-band router with 2.4GHz and 5GHz channels, and includes nine internal industrial-grade antennas with MU-MIMO and beamforming technology enabled.

If your gaming laptop's wireless hardware can match that?

If your gaming laptop's wireless hardware can match that?

Those are all AP features, not router features

A real gamer will use ethernet.

Mikrotik has about the most advanced OS there is on any router. Doubt that razer would even come close.

I wish mikrotik could get a proper UI though. The 1980s design isn't the best

What is the difference between a regular [insert product type] and a gaming [insert product type again]? Backlit logos and/or lighting with adjustable colours.
