Razer Releases $150 mesh Wi-Fi router optimized for gaming

Razer announced today a partnership with home networking partner Ignition Design Labs, creators of the Portal Wi-Fi router. The companies collaborated to optimize features and performance of the Portal router specifically for gaming.

While evolving its ecosystem of hardware and software for gaming and entertainment, Razer identified device connectivity as a major area needing improvement.  A sub-par router is often the cause of lag, screen tearing and buffering, three issues that commonly plague gamers. Mesh-capable Portal Wi-Fi routers help prevent these glitches. With key technologies, Portal successfully addresses the demands of high bandwidth gaming and streaming applications.

  • ZeroWait ZWDFS technology for lag-free gaming and streaming
  • Dual-band ultra-fast speed (AC2400 Wave-2)
  • Improved signal, reception and mesh network coverage
  • Highly secure and private
  • App for iOS and Android

“Razer continually transforms categories to redefine the meaning of ‘ultimate performance,’” says Razer Co-Founder and CEO Min-Liang Tan. “Now we’re elevating Wi-Fi to meet that standard.  It’s vital to creating the best gaming and entertainment experiences for our fans all over the world.”

Terry Ngo, CEO of Ignition Design Labs, said the following: “As engineers, we’re passionate about technology and beautiful design. We’ve built high-performance Wi-Fi solutions for some of the most iconic names in consumer electronics. We’re thrilled now to be partnering with Razer to transform Wi-Fi networking into a competition-beating advantage for the world’s foremost gaming and entertainment ecosystem.”
