HUAWEI Wi-Fi6 plus
HUAWEI unique Dynamic Narrow Bandwidth technology, the chipset level synergy between routers and devices, improves the signal of HUAWEI Wi-Fi 6 smartphones to new height.
3x Speed: Not only 1024 QAM but also 160Mhz Channel bandwidth, which maximizes the speed of Wi-Fi 6 and even the Wi-Fi 5 phones or tablets supporting 160Mhz channel bandwidth.
4x Capacity: OFDMA from Mobile Telecommunication field allows sharing the spectrum resources simultaneously.
2/3 Latency Cut: OFDMA and the latest spatial reuse technology BSS coloring increase your network efficiency and decrease interference.
30% Power Saved: On-demand waked-up functionality saves battery for all Wi-Fi 6 connected devices.

Dual-core 1.2GHz CPU
Computing power up to 6000 DMIPS ensures smooth network experience in multi-connection scenarios.

HUAWEI HomeSecTM
Commercial grade defence technology guards your Wi-Fi from strangers’ brute-force cracking.
Button/Ports
H button
Connect the power adapter to this port.

Power port
WAN port
The port that connects to the Internet (e.g., a fiber optic modem/broadband modem/cable modem).

LAN ports
The ports that connect to network devices such as a computer.

Reset button
When the router is powered on, you can use a pointed object to press and hold the reset button for more than two seconds until the indicator turns off. The router should now be restored to factory settings.

Power button
Press once to power on the device or press and hold for at least three seconds to power it off.

Functions and Features
Automatically Identifying Internet Access Mode
The router can automatically identify your Internet access mode (PPPoE/DHCP). No manual operation is required.
Multi-router Network Distribution
Supports network expansion by connecting multiple HUAWEI HiLink routers using the HiLink button.
Supports network expansion by connecting multiple HUAWEI HiLink routers using Ethernet cables.
Supports the auto-sync of your router’s Wi-Fi configurations: If the Wi-Fi name, password, or router management password is changed on your primary router, the configuration will automatically sync to the others HUAWEI HiLink routers.
If there are multiple routers in your home, your Wi-Fi device will be automatically switched to a better-performing router.

Connecting to Your Former router (Through Wired Bridge or Wireless Repeater Mode) to Form a Network
You can use an Ethernet cable to cascade HUAWEI WIFI AX3 to a former router and form a network. In this case, HUAWEI WIFI AX3works as the secondary router.
HUAWEI WIFI AX3can also connect to your former router’s Wi-Fi as a wireless repeater. When it functions as a wireless repeater, it has the same Wi-Fi name and password as your former router. There will be only one Wi-Fi network in your home.

Ensuring Privacy with Multiple Security Mechanisms
HUAWEI WIFI AX3controls Wi-Fi access and disconnects unwanted devices to prevent unauthorized access.
It supports guest Wi-Fi. You can set up a dedicated Wi-Fi network for your guests. Guests have access to the guest Wi-Fi but cannot manage the router or access other devices on the home network. This allows you to protect the security and privacy of your home network.
You can hide your Wi-Fi name to improve network security. If a Wi-Fi name is hidden, wireless devices (like PCs and mobile phones) cannot search for the Wi-Fi name. To connect a wireless device to a hidden Wi-Fi network, you must enter the correct Wi-Fi name.
The built-in firewall can protect you from DoS/ARP attacks by scanning all data communication between the Internet and your home network.
It supports DMZ feature that allows you to expose the DMZ host to the Internet, while other devices are protected by the firewall. For example, when setting up a server, you can set the computer connected to the external network as the DMZ host to allow it to provide Internet services while ensuring the security of other devices on your home network.

Power-saving Features
The router supports three different power modes: High, Mid and Low to cater to your different needs at different time of the day and in different environments.
Wi-Fi timer allows you to disable Wi-Fi during specific time periods (such as after midnight or when you’re at work) in order to reduce power consumption.

Parental Control
The parental control feature allows you to set Internet access time limits and restrict access to certain websites to keep your family members (especially minors) protected.
Router Management
You can access your router’s web-based management page from your computer, mobile phone or tablet. Alternatively, you can download and install HUAWEI AI Life on your mobile phone or tablet for faster configuration.

VPN Passthrough
Supports VPN passthrough (requires VPN dialling from LAN device).
WPS
Supports the Wi-Fi device connect to the router network conveniently through the WPS function.
Other Supported Features
NAT and NAPT (RFC 1631, RFC 2663, RFC 2766, and RFC 3022)
Supports access to the IPv6 network.
DHCP server and clients
DNS proxy

Proxy for DNS queries from its connected devices to speed up DNS responses.
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)

Computers in the LAN can request the router to automatically switch the port. This allows computers connected to the Internet to access the resources on any LAN computers when needed, allowing you to enjoy a more stable network while playing computer games or using apps to download files.
