Beamforming
Beamforming means that your gateway actively tracks clients and directs WiFi to the client,
rather than just blasting it out in all directions. This means better WiFi range and performance
for your WiFi devices.
The gateway uses explicit and implicit beamforming to improve WiFi performance. Explicit
beamforming requires the client to support beamforming. Typically 802.11ac clients support
beamforming. Implicit beamforming means that the gateway can support beamforming even
with clients that do not support beamforming. This gateway supports implicit beamforming for
both 2.4 and 5 GHz clients, which means that it will provide beamforming benefits of better
range and performance for all WiFi devices, even older 802.11a/b/g/n, not just the latest WiFi
clients.
Implicit Beamforming
Implicit beamforming means that the router can use information from client devices that
support beamforming to improve the WiFi signal. This feature is enabled by default, but you
can disable it.

1.

network.
