ROG First is a new feature of the ROG GameFirst V network acceleration software for ROG motherboards, laptops and desktops that ensures seamless operation with ROG routers, resulting in smoother online gaming performance with shorter ping times and minimized lag. ROG GT-AC2900 features triple-level game acceleration to boost game traffic every step of the way — from your device to the game server. You’ll experience lower ping times and reduced latency for a better online gaming experience. Open NAT on GT-AC2900 cannot be easier, it only takes 3 steps. No more frustrating and complicated process needed. ROG GT-AC2900 can be connected with other ASUS AiMesh-compatible routers to form a mesh Wi-Fi system that provides seamless coverage to every corner of your home, letting you game anywhere and move around freely without Wi-Fi dropouts. GT-AC2900 features AiProtection Pro powered by Trend Micro to defend your network from external attacks and threats by neutralizing them before they can reach your devices. AiProtection Pro even protects devices that cannot install anti-virus software — such as game consoles, smartphones and IoT devices — giving you added peace of mind. The lighting on GT-AC2900 can also be set to remind you when attacks arise.
