Wired router ASROCK G10 AC2600 — Dual‑band Wi‑Fi 802.11ac, Gigabit Ethernet, USB 3.2, 256MB flash / 512MB RAM, Black

ASROCK G10 AC2600 is a wired dual‑band router supporting IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac standards with AC2600 combined throughput. Designed as a compact tower in a black finish for desktop or rack placement, the G10 integrates four high‑performance internal antennas, a 1.4 GHz dual‑core processor, beamforming and MU‑MIMO to deliver stable Wi‑Fi coverage with combined speeds up to 2.53 Gbps (1733 Mbps at 5 GHz and 800 Mbps at 2.4 GHz). The router offers Gigabit Ethernet ports for wired connections and a USB 3.2 Gen 1 port for attaching storage or shared devices. Built‑in features include WPA/WPA2 security, WPS, IPv6 support, printer and DLNA server functions, and a compact travel/HDMI dongle (H2R) for media casting.

Advantages

The G10 combines high throughput and coverage with practical connectivity: dual‑band AC performance, Gigabit wired ports and a high‑speed USB 3.2 interface for NAS‑style file sharing without complex setup. Software features such as Gaming Boost (dynamic QoS), self‑healing automatic reboot, IR remote control and remote management via the ASRock Router app simplify device control and ongoing operation. The tower design with internal antennas aims to provide strong signal distribution while remaining suitable for visible placement in living rooms or small office spaces.

Suitable for

• Homes and small offices requiring simultaneous high‑speed Wi‑Fi and multiple wired connections
• Online gaming and streaming on multiple devices where bandwidth prioritization is needed
• Users who need simple network storage or media sharing via USB‑attached drives
• Setups requiring remote control of infrared appliances and casting media to a TV (using H2R dongle)

How to use

Place the router on a stable surface with adequate ventilation and connect the WAN port to your modem and Ethernet cables to wired devices as needed. Power on the unit and use a computer or mobile device to join the router’s default network; the setup interface will open automatically in a browser or accessible through the ASRock Router app. Follow on‑screen prompts to configure internet connection type, wireless SSIDs and passwords, enable WPA/WPA2 security and set up Gaming Boost or QoS rules. Connect a USB drive to the USB 3.2 port to enable file sharing, DLNA or printer server functions without additional configuration.

Recommendations

For optimal wireless coverage, place the router centrally in the area of use and avoid obstructions. Use the 5 GHz band for low‑latency activities such as online gaming and video streaming and the 2.4 GHz band for longer‑range device connections. Enable self‑healing scheduled reboots if the router remains powered continuously to maintain performance. When using USB storage as a NAS, ensure drives are formatted in a supported filesystem and maintain regular backups.
