Further enhancing connectivity, the router supports NearLink technology for a 50% increase in network stability. It offers both wired and wireless Mesh arrangements, with an AI Mesh system that analyzes home floor plans via the Huawei Smart Life application to suggest optimal equipment placement. Automatic roaming manages transitions between 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands for a consistent user experience.
