Name: HBE-AX3000 Res/Business Router
Price: 69.87 USD

Key Features

Dual-band Wi-Fi 6, AX3000

574 Mbps at 2.4 GHz and 2402 Mbps at 5 GHz, with 160 MHz channel support on the 5 GHz band.

Six 5 dBi external antennas

High-gain omnidirectional antennas around the chassis, so coverage reaches the far rooms rather than dying at the first wall.

4 + 1 Gigabit ports

One Gigabit WAN port for the broadband uplink and four Gigabit LAN ports for wired devices at full speed.

Mesh, AP and repeater modes

Run it as a gateway, add it to an existing wired network as an access point, extend Wi-Fi as a repeater, or pair it with compatible Mesh units.

Coverage, wiring and deployment

What the six antennas, the Gigabit ports and the four operating modes mean once the unit is installed.

Coverage and wired speed

Six external high-gain antennas. Six 5 dBi antennas broadcast a strong, stable signal across a home or small office, reducing dead zones in hard-to-reach areas.
Full Gigabit Ethernet. One Gigabit WAN port and four Gigabit LAN ports for high-speed broadband and stable wired connections. Cat5e or better is recommended.
160 MHz channels. The 5 GHz radio supports 20, 40, 80 and 160 MHz channel widths for the full 2402 Mbps rate where the environment allows it.
Built for many devices. OFDMA and MIMO improve efficiency in busy environments — family streaming, gaming, video calls, office work and smart-home gear at the same time.

Deployment and access

Four operating modes. DHCP router, PPPoE router, access point over Ethernet, or wireless repeater to extend an existing network.
Mesh expansion and WPS. A short press pairs WPS devices; holding the button for more than five seconds starts Mesh pairing with compatible units.
Multi-protocol VPN. OpenVPN, PPTP and L2TP for encrypted remote access, subject to the VPN service and network in use.
Straightforward management. NAT, firewall and DHCP server built in, with Power, Wi-Fi and Network status LEDs on the front edge.

A closer look

Speed, coverage, wiring, VPN and the operating modes — the detail shots.

AX3000 dual-band Wi-Fi 6 router — up to 3000 Mbps for lag-free streaming, stable gaming and many devices at once

HBE-AX3000 in a home office — 2402 Mbps on the 5 GHz band for lag-free streaming and gaming

Dual-band Wi-Fi 6 — 2.4 GHz for long-range smart-home devices, 5 GHz for high-speed gaming and 4K streaming

160 MHz channel width on the 5 GHz band for higher throughput and lower latency than a standard 80 MHz channel

OFDMA and MIMO — PC, phone, TV and console connected at the same time without congestion

Rear panel — one Gigabit WAN port and four Gigabit LAN ports for full-speed wired connections

Built-in VPN client — OpenVPN, PPTP and L2TP for encrypted remote access

Flexible network modes — access point mode turns a wired network into Wi-Fi, repeater mode extends existing coverage

AX3000 compared with an AX1200 router — 2.5 times the rated wireless throughput

Wireless rates are theoretical PHY maximums; real-world performance varies with environment, client capability and network conditions. Available channels and frequencies vary by country and region.
