Manage Implicit Beamforming
Implicit beamforming contrasts with explicit beamforming, which means the router
actively tracks clients and directs power to the router antenna closest to the client.
Explicit beamforming works whether or not the client supports beamforming. Implicit
beamforming means that the router can use information from client devices that support
beamforming to improve the WiFi speed, reliability, and range. This feature is enabled
by default, but you can disable it.
To disable implicit beamforming:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
router network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time
that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The Dashboard displays.
4. Select Settings > Advanced Settings > Advanced Wireless.
The Advanced Wireless Settings page displays.
5. Scroll to the bottom of the page and clear the Enable Implicit BEAMFORMING
check box.
6. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
If you are connected over WiFi to the network, you might be disconnected from the
network and might need to reconnect.
Manage MU-MIMO
Multi user multiple-input, multiple-output (MU-MIMO) improves performance when
multiple Mu-MIMO-capable WiFi clients transfer data at the same time. WiFi clients must
support Mu-MIMO, and they must be connected to a 5 GHz WiFi band. This feature is
enabled by default, but you can disable it.
