AC5400 MU-MIMO Review
A big case with lots of aerials usually implies strong wireless performance, and on paper, the Router is capable of 1,000Mbits/sec on the 2.4GHz band, and a whopping 2,167Mbits/sec on each of its two 5GHz radios. By default, these appear as a single 802.11ac network, but a band steering option works behind the scenes to balance clients across the two 5GHz connections, keeping contention to a minimum. I couldn't test these numbers with my equipment and I didn't reach those numbers, but it was very close.
The Linksys Max-Stream AC5400 MU-MIMO Gigabit Router is designed for large households, physically, it's huge, and its price certainly isn't small. Powered by a dual-core CPU and featuring eight external antennas, this monstrous tri-band router packs Multi-User Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MU-MIMO) streaming, eight Gigabit LAN ports, and plenty of management settings.

ADVANCED SECURITY FEATURES FOR A SECURE CONNECTION
With the MAX-STREAM AC5400 MU-MIMO Gigabit Wi-Fi Router (EA9500), your work files, data, and home network information are safely connected with WPA/WPA2 encryption and an SPI firewall.
SMOOTH 4K VIDEO STREAMING WITH BLAZING-FAST Wi-Fi SPEEDS
The MAX-STREAM AC5400 offers three independent Wi-Fi bands that deliver extremely fast combined speeds of up to 5.3 Gbps.* Tri-Band technology delivers up to double the Wireless-AC performance of a dual-band router. High-bandwidth applications like videoconferencing and movie streaming are ideal for the two high-speed 5 GHz bands, while lower-bandwidth devices like older wireless-N and -G computers can utilize the 2.4 GHz band.
HIGH-PERFORMANCE ANTENNAS FOR MAXIMUM COVERAGE
The router features eight adjustable external antennas, which can be positioned for optimal performance. They provide powerful streams of data to your devices, ensuring complete Wi-Fi coverage throughout your home. Unlike the two or three data streams found on other routers, the AC5400 delivers four simultaneous streams per band for stronger, faster performance.
IMPROVED MOBILE SPEED AND RANGE WITH BEAMFORMING
Play video games, listen to music, check email, shop, stream movies, and more–without having to worry about signal drop-off. Beamforming technology directs Wi-Fi signals to each of your mobile devices. This focused direction provides increased signal strength and coverage.
