This Wi-Fi router supports the Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) standard, which offers increased data transfer speeds, reduced latency, and improved network performance in conditions with multiple devices connected to the network.

The Huawei WiFi AX3 provides high Wi-Fi speeds to meet the increased demands arising from high-resolution streaming, online gaming, file sharing, and other network activities. Additionally, it provides enhanced Wi-Fi coverage through technologies such as smart antennas and Huawei Share technology, which allows connected Huawei devices to easily share Wi-Fi access with other devices.

The era of Wi-Fi 6

Wi-Fi 5 is the standard used by most devices today, while Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) is the new standard gradually entering smart devices in recent years. Wi-Fi 6 has made several improvements over Wi-Fi 5 to address the increasing demand for faster and more efficient Wi-Fi.

Greater bandwidth with 160 MHz, High Speed

The AX3 and Wi-Fi 6-enabled HUAWEI phones are the perfect pair, as both are equipped with HUAWEI's self-developed Wi-Fi chipset, which supports a 160 MHz frequency bandwidth. This lays the foundation for Chipset Synergy, highlighting optimal speed and performance.

The signal can pass through another wall with the HUAWEI Wi-Fi 6 Plus

The HUAWEI 6 Wi-Fi enabled phones can send signals back to the AX3 with 6 dB stronger power in a stable, narrow 2 MHz bandwidth using Dynamic Narrow Bandwidth technology, based on the Synergy Chipset. Wireless signals can easily penetrate solid objects such as walls and floors. This means that the phone will have good Wi-Fi signal reception even when connected from a distance from the router.

Speeds beyond imagination

You will be impressed with the incredible high speed offered by the AX3. Thanks to the 1024-QAM and 160 MHz frequency bandwidth, its theoretical speed can reach up to 3000 Mbps (574 Mbps in a 2.4 GHz band and 2402 Mbps in a 5 GHz band). The quad-core Gigahome processor allows the AX3 to unleash its speed better. Enjoy smooth streaming and gaming like never before.

Multiple Connections. Smooth Connections.

Unlike traditional routers, you can connect multiple devices to the AX3 with higher performance. Supporting the OFDMA multi-user technology, it is able to send data to multiple devices simultaneously (up to 4 devices in 2.4 GHz, up to 16 devices in 5 GHz). The high-power quad-core Gigahome processor also ensures smooth processor operation. And it is able to connect up to 128 devices in total in dual bands. Regardless of how crowded the space is, it will serve different users and devices immediately.

Faster Wi-Fi 5 Devices

As the AX3 supports 160 MHz, when you connect the AX3 to devices that support 160 MHz, such as top smart phones, tablets, and laptops with HUAWEI 5 Wi-Fi capability, the Internet speed will increase by 60% and more. This provides you with an unprecedented experience without delay on mobile devices.

Revolutionary Experience

Huawei Share allows you to connect the AX3 to your Smartphone with a simple tap. Whether you're hosting a party at your home or celebrating with friends and loved ones, this router will remember the password for you and allow trusted guests to easily connect to it.

Mesh Networking Allows for Greater Wi-Fi Coverage

Router

Type

The devices we encounter are standalone routers, routers with built-in modems, and mobile routers.

A router requires a separate modem and distributes the connection to multiple devices via Wi-Fi or Ethernet, but cannot connect directly to the internet. A modem/router combines a modem and router in one device, connects directly to the internet provider, and distributes the connection to the local network. A mobile router, on the other hand, uses a SIM card and mobile data to create a portable Wi-Fi hotspot, ideal for use outside the home or in areas without a fixed connection.

Router

Plain router (without modem). The router is a device to which other devices (e.g. computer, mobile, TV) connect either wirelessly or with a cable, and it shares internet access with them. It receives internet access through a separate device called a modem.

Security

Encryption Protocols
WPA3-Personal

Encryption Protocols

The security protocols supported by the device for encrypting data transmitted wirelessly and protecting against third-party connections to your network.

The first protocol was WEP, which was replaced by WPA, which in turn evolves into generations with each generation having a corporate and home version. Anything older than WPA2 is not considered secure.

It is recommended that the device support at least WPA2-Personal (PSK) for home use.

WPA3-Personal
WPA3 is the latest generation of WPA that will replace WPA2 and offers even greater password protection, even when they are simple. Additionally, it makes device connection even easier and more secure than previous generations. 2. WPA3-Personal is intended for home use using less powerful encryption, compared to WPA3-Enterprise which is aimed at corporate applications. It uses the SAE (Simultaneous Authentication of Equals) authentication process instead of the PSK of previous generations, significantly increasing security.
MAC Address Filtering
Yes

MAC Address Filtering

MAC (media access control) address filtering is the ability of a device to allow specific devices to connect based on their unique MAC address, while excluding any device with a MAC address that has not been defined as acceptable.

Extras

Virtual Private Network (VPN)
Yes

Virtual Private Network (VPN)

The device has the ability to set up a VPN (Virtual Private Network) so that traffic from all devices on our network passes through it. 2. The VPN acts as an intermediary between us and the rest of the internet. This way, we can give the impression that we are geographically located in another country and the pages we visit see the VPN address as the visitor's address, not ours. 3. This provides us with anonymity and access to content with geographic restrictions (e.g. some YouTube videos are only available in certain countries, the Netflix catalog is different depending on the country, etc.). 4. VPN services are usually paid for by subscription.

    Yesterday I also received it, I am not a specialized user, I just wanted to have faster wifi (next to the NOVA modem router I was getting a 100 Mbps connection, usually around 50-55). With 5G, I now get almost 90 Mbps (slightly less than what the fixed line offers). The issue is the range, I knew that 5G doesn't have such a great range, but even the option for 2.4G has a weaker signal than the Nova modem router. However, at not a particularly long distance from the Huawei, 5G works exceptionally well. It has several settings in the application (at least for a simple and non-specialized user)

    From what I have seen so far, what bothered me is that if you use it as a bridge in my home network, you cannot set the time for it to receive an update, and neither does Huawei provide a way for you to download the upgrade yourself.

    Experience of 4 days, simply amazing. Provides wifi for 4 mobile devices and with a Van for 2 PCs and a smart TV.
    No disconnections, everything is fast, easy installation, menu accessible through PC and Android phone. Greek language, understandable, with plenty of settings and management for all devices, indicating the upload and download speeds of each device. So far, although I believe it is a bit expensive, it is worth buying.

    The best thing about this router. WARNING IT IS NOT A ROUTER - MODEM so you will need to connect it to the router provided by your provider and it will take care of your entire network. 1.5 months of use and not a single Wifi disconnection so far.

    Update: 6 months later and still not a single disconnection. The mobile application that manages the router has been upgraded and new features have been added. Download the app from the Huawei Store (Google it to see how to install it) and then download the router app from there as the Play Store does not often provide updates for the application

WPA3-Personal
WPA3 is the latest generation of WPA that will replace WPA2 and offers even greater password protection, even when they are simple. Additionally, it makes device connection even easier and more secure than previous generations. 2. WPA3-Personal is intended for home use using less powerful encryption, compared to WPA3-Enterprise which is aimed at corporate applications. It uses the SAE (Simultaneous Authentication of Equals) authentication process instead of the PSK of previous generations, significantly increasing security.
MAC Address Filtering
Yes

MAC Address Filtering

MAC (media access control) address filtering is the ability of a device to allow specific devices to connect based on their unique MAC address, while excluding any device with a MAC address that has not been defined as acceptable.

Extras

Virtual Private Network (VPN)
Yes

Virtual Private Network (VPN)

The device has the ability to set up a VPN (Virtual Private Network) so that traffic from all devices on our network passes through it. 2. The VPN acts as an intermediary between us and the rest of the internet. This way, we can give the impression that we are geographically located in another country and the pages we visit see the VPN address as the visitor's address, not ours. 3. This provides us with anonymity and access to content with geographic restrictions (e.g. some YouTube videos are only available in certain countries, the Netflix catalog is different depending on the country, etc.). 4. VPN services are usually paid for by subscription.

    Compact, reliable, and without misleading advertisements of nonexistent or similar features. I highly recommend it because it respects itself and you.

    I have a 50Mbps Cosmote connection. I have it in the hallway of a 100sqm house and it reaches everywhere, even with 3 lines in the room. The 5G connection reaches over 55Mbps consistently and the 2.4G connection is also very close. Huawei provides warranty and quality

    Yesterday I also received it, I am not a specialized user, I just wanted to have faster wifi (next to the NOVA modem router I was getting a 100 Mbps connection, usually around 50-55). With 5G, I now get almost 90 Mbps (slightly less than what the fixed line offers). The issue is the range, I knew that 5G doesn't have such a great range, but even the option for 2.4G has a weaker signal than the Nova modem router. However, at not a particularly long distance from the Huawei, 5G works exceptionally well. It has several settings in the application (at least for a simple and non-specialized user)

    From what I have seen so far, what bothered me is that if you use it as a bridge in my home network, you cannot set the time for it to receive an update, and neither does Huawei provide a way for you to download the upgrade yourself.

    Experience of 4 days, simply amazing. Provides wifi for 4 mobile devices and with a Van for 2 PCs and a smart TV.
    No disconnections, everything is fast, easy installation, menu accessible through PC and Android phone. Greek language, understandable, with plenty of settings and management for all devices, indicating the upload and download speeds of each device. So far, although I believe it is a bit expensive, it is worth buying.

    The best thing about this router. WARNING IT IS NOT A ROUTER - MODEM so you will need to connect it to the router provided by your provider and it will take care of your entire network. 1.5 months of use and not a single Wifi disconnection so far.

    Update: 6 months later and still not a single disconnection. The mobile application that manages the router has been upgraded and new features have been added. Download the app from the Huawei Store (Google it to see how to install it) and then download the router app from there as the Play Store does not often provide updates for the application
