Those three bands are the 2.4 and 5GHz bands most internet users are already familiar with, along with that newly-opened 6GHz band. Right now, the fastest internet plans in the country offer download and upload speeds that top out at 2 gigs. Just keep in mind that you can only connect to one band at a time, and that your internet speeds will always depend upon your home internet plan. Looks aside, the Atlas Max is a tri-band AXE8400 device - the "AXE" part signifying that it supports Wi-Fi 6E, and the "8400" telling you that the top theoretical speeds of its three bands add up to 8,400Mbps, or 8.4 gigabits per second.
The LInksys Velop Atlas Max 6E looks just like previous Linksys Velop mesh routers.
#Linksys router update
Seems a shame not to get a design update to go along with the new Atlas Max branding, though - and given that you'll need to spend $500 for a single device, $900 for a two-pack, or a whopping $1,200 for a three-pack, a more distinct, premium-feeling build that doesn't feel like a last-gen router would have been well justified here. It's the newest addition to the Linksys Velop line of mesh routers, and it looks just like previous Velop routers, distinguished only by a Wi-Fi 6E label stamped on the front. Let's start with that mesh option, the Atlas Max. Called the Atlas Max 6E and the Hydra Pro 6E, both routers will set you back at least $500 - make that $1,200 if you want a complete, three-piece mesh system. Linksys has two new routers up for sale Thursday, and both support Wi-Fi 6E - that means they can transmit in the 6GHz band, which offers more than twice the bandwidth of 5GHz, and which the Federal Communications Commission opened up for unlicensed use last year.
