Long-term strategic vision and outstanding technological innovation capabilities
This milestone achievement of Huawei not only demonstrates Huawei's leading position in the router market, but also is a strong proof of its technological innovation and product research and development capabilities. In fact, Huawei started earlier on the road of research and development, and began to invest in research and development of routing chips as early as 2003.
Looking back at the history of Huawei's router shipments exceeding 100 million, it is not difficult to find that the continuous innovation of technology has promoted the continuous iteration and upgrading of products.Leaving behind one impressive achievement after another:From the launch of Huawei Router Q1 with its industry-first sub-master router form, to the continuous optimization of the subsequent Q series for domestic reinforced concrete walls and other actual conditions, Huawei has always focused on the research and development and upgrade of PLC technology. Until the Q6 is equipped with the patented Lingxiao PLC technology, it provides a practical solution to the network coverage problem of various house types.

The AX series and BE series have always been at the forefront of Wi-Fi technology iterations: Huawei's router AX3 series became a hit after its launch, and it helped the cumulative shipments exceed the 50 million mark; while Huawei's routers, which will be released at the end of 2023 BE3 Pro series relies on Huawei's contribution to the Wi-Fi 7 standard patent to rank first in the world. It has become the first Wi-Fi 7 router under 500 yuan, which has the significance of popularizing Wi-Fi technology.
Each of Huawei's router products continues to break through technical barriers and build brand influence step by step. The current shipment volume exceeds 100 million, which is also the best explanation of the continuous struggle over the past few years.
More choices, Huawei routers provide full signal in every room
In the future picture built by Huawei's “1+8+N” all-scenario smart life strategy, Wi-Fi routers play an extremely important role as a connection center. Therefore, providing simple, high-speed, stable, and secure Wi-Fi connections is a prerequisite for enjoying high-quality smart homes, and it is also the long-term strategy followed by Huawei's router category.
The most basic requirement of home users for routers is to have a higher quality Wi-Fi signal anywhere in the home, so it is very important to choose a suitable router according to the actual situation. Currently, major e-commerce platforms are holding 618 promotion activities. Here we also take this opportunity to recommend several Huawei routers, so that you can truly “buy the right one instead of the expensive one”.
Huawei router BE3 Pro series, leading the era of Wi-Fi 7 popularization
For small families or individual rental houses with a relatively square floor plan of less than 90 square meters, we recommend the Huawei router BE3 Pro series. As Huawei's first Wi-Fi 7 router, Huawei Router BE3 Pro is equipped with a series of core technologies such as MLO dual-band aggregation, M-RU, 4K QAM signal modulation, etc., with higher speed, lower latency, and higher stability. Advantage.
Among them, MLO dual-band aggregation technology can give full play to the true potential of Gigabit and above broadband. Although ordinary routers also have two frequency bands, 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, users can only choose to connect to one of the frequency bands, resulting in the resources of the other frequency band being idle and the performance not being fully utilized. Huawei Router BE3 Pro uses MLO dual-band aggregation technology to allow smartphones, tablets and other Wi-Fi 7-supported devices to connect to two frequency bands at the same time, thereby making full use of bandwidth resources and achieving a significant increase in network speed.
Data from Huawei Labs shows that MLO dual-band aggregation technology can increase the speed by up to 92% and reduce the latency by 77%. More importantly, it also expands the core coverage area of the high-speed network, allowing users to connect in the main activity areas of the home and high-speed networks. You can get a better network usage experience in frequent usage scenarios.
Huawei Router BE3 Pro also supports Lingxi Dual Wi-Fi technology, allowing terminal devices that support Huawei Lingxi Dual Wi-Fi to simultaneously connect to the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands to transmit data. As early as March last year, some Huawei terminal users using devices that support Lingxi Dual Wi-Fi technology have already enjoyed low-latency, high-throughput networks in advance, and obtained a high-speed experience comparable to Wi-Fi 7 MLO dual-band aggregation technology.
In addition, the M-RU and 4K QAM high-order modulation technology used by Huawei Router BE3 Pro can further improve network stability and data transmission efficiency. Huawei router BE3 Pro 2500M network port version has a Gigabit e-sports network port and a 2500M high-speed network port to meet higher “Level” needs. Even if home broadband is upgraded to Gigabit or above in the future, it can easily handle it.
Huawei router AX6new: advanced performance, stronger wall penetration
For medium and large households of 90 to 120 square meters, Huawei router AX6new has become an ideal choice due to its faster speed and wider coverage.
Huawei Router AX6new wireless combination rate can reach 7200Mbps, which is much higher than traditional routers. It supports 4×4 & 4K QAM dual-mode parallelism at the same time, increasing the rate by 140%. In addition, with a large bandwidth of 160MHz, multi-task network transmission can still maintain high speed and smooth flow. .
No matter the house type, the Huawei Lingxiao router Q6 has full signal throughout the house
For large or complex households with more than 120 square meters, traditional routers are difficult to deal with. Some rooms will inevitably have signal dead spots, let alone large flat-floor or wall-to-floor villas. Huawei Lingxiao's Q6 series of mother-to-child routers adopt the form of mother-to-child routing and flexible networking to ensure full signal coverage throughout the house.
In daily use, the biggest feeling this router gives people is “no feeling” – no sense of obtrusion, no inconvenience in use, simple and flexible. The motherboard can be placed in the living room or in a weak current box. Coupled with the technologically aesthetic design, it can perfectly fit any decoration style without any abrupt feeling at all. The sub-router is even more compact and can be used wherever there is a wall plug. It will not affect other sockets on the wall plug, and has better compatibility and adaptability.
Not only that, Huawei Lingxiao router Q6 is also very simple to configure, even if you don’t have any basic knowledge, you can operate it. For example, when setting up a new router, the most common problem that many people encounter is forgetting their broadband account and password. However, Huawei Lingxiao Router Q6 only needs to be connected to the old router through a network cable and cooperated with the Huawei Smart Life APP to realize the device Migrate without reconnecting all devices.
The use of sub-routers is more convenient. If you feel that the Wi-Fi signal is not good in any area in your home, you only need to plug the sub-router into the wall plug. Without any unnecessary operations, you can achieve high-quality signal coverage throughout the house. There will not be a situation where watching videos in the living room is very smooth, but when you go to the bedroom, study, balcony, or bathroom, it will be intermittent.
The simplicity must be supported by “black technology”, and the most noteworthy features of Q6 must be the multi-link networking and Lingxiao super seamless roaming brought by Lingxiao technology. Multi-link networking refers to the transmission of signals between the parent and child routers through power lines, 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, and 5GHz Wi-Fi. It is like a single-lane road that has been turned into a three-lane road. The three channels complement each other, greatly improving the coverage and performance of the router at medium and long distances, and transmitting data more stably and efficiently.
In terms of power line transmission, Q6 has been upgraded to the new power line transmission technology PLC Turbo 2.0, which uses MIMO (multiple transmit and multiple receive) technology and AI anti-interference technology to eliminate channel interference to the greatest extent and keep Wi-Fi signal transmission stable.
HarmonyOS smart network is not only Huawei router but also smart router
Huawei routers not only have strong “hard” capabilities, but also have the blessing of HarmonyOS smart network at the software level, bringing users many useful software functions and improving user experience in all aspects. For example, the industry's first visual intelligent diagnosis function can clearly display the boundaries of Wi-Fi coverage by generating a Wi-Fi heat map, and the signal coverage at home can be seen at a glance.
Another example is the intelligent detection function, which helps users avoid having to restart the router or call the operator for help when their home network fails. Instead, they can troubleshoot with one click through the Huawei Smart Life APP: It is reported that the Huawei router R&D team has summarized 78 common problems. Fault scenarios cover Internet access problems and Wi-Fi disconnection problems, and fault self-diagnosis tools are provided so that novice network users can easily solve more than 80% of common faults by themselves.
For different home scenarios, HarmonyOS smart network also has its own solutions: the new Game Turbo technology supports the acceleration of many popular games, which can significantly reduce the delay and packet loss rate. It is simply an invisible plug-in for game enthusiasts; there is also the Internet for children Care and other functions are aimed at families with children, providing considerate and intelligent care.
In addition, network information security is also an issue that router equipment has to consider. Huawei routers supported by HarmonyOS smart network also support anti-brute-force cracking, anti-censorship, anti-peeping, and camera anti-hijacking functions. After entering the password to connect to Wi-Fi, , access to the Internet must be authorized by the owner to prevent strangers from using the Internet or even intruding through cracked software. Through multiple security protections, user privacy and network usage safety are protected.
A few days ago, Huawei also announced that 180 Huawei terminal devices, including 11 Huawei routers, will be upgraded to the latest HarmonyOS 4.2 system, taking users' smart experience to a new level.
