Linksys’ Velop Pro 6E: The perfect mesh networking system if you’re not ready for Wi-Fi 7

Discover the Linksys Velop Pro 6E, a top choice for those who are not yet ready for Wi-Fi 7. It is available at special prices until July 31.

Linksys’ Velop Pro 6E mesh networking system is now available in Singapore. If you’re wondering whether it’s worth getting a Wi-Fi 6E router now with Wi-Fi 7 on the horizon, let’s break it down for you.

Why Wi-Fi 6E is a good choice

Although Wi-Fi 7 is the future, most devices, including smartphones and laptops, still need support. Moreover, Wi-Fi 7 routers and mesh systems are expensive, making Wi-Fi 6E a more practical option.

Wi-Fi 6E can deliver impressive speeds when used with suitable devices and in the proper environment. The Velop Pro 6E is a tri-band mesh system with a total data transfer rate of 5,400 Mbps. Here’s how it breaks down:

  • 2.4GHz network: 600Mbps
  • 5GHz network: 2,400Mbps
  • 6GHz network: 2,400Mbps

Each Velop Pro 6E node includes a Gigabit Ethernet WAN port and a Gigabit Ethernet LAN port for wired connectivity.

Smart performance and easy setup

One of the standout features of the Velop Pro 6E is its Cognitive Mesh technology. This feature automatically optimises your network to ensure you get the best performance possible. It supports both wireless and wired backhaul, giving you flexibility in setting up your network.

Linksys has also made setting up the Velop Pro 6E incredibly simple. The company has reduced the setup time by two-thirds, so you should be able to get your network up and running in under 10 minutes.

Availability and special pricing

The Linksys Velop Pro 6E is available at Lazada, Shopee, and Challenger stores in Singapore. From now until July 31, there are special promotional prices:

  • One-pack: S$299 (usual price: S$359)
  • Two-pack: S$439 (usual price: S$659)

These promotional prices make it a great time to upgrade your home network to Wi-Fi 6E, especially if you still need to prepare for the leap to Wi-Fi 7.
