Today, Razer revealed the Razer Sila, a high-performance WiFi router optimized for gaming, streaming, and downloading multimedia content. It is focused on giving players a fast and reliable WiFi connection for lag-free gaming and smooth, interruption-free streaming.

The Razer Sila with feature technologies to further aid a quality connection. It will feature Razer FasTrack, Multi-Channel ZeroWait DFS, and Mesh capability with a dedicated backhaul. It can even be setup and managed through an easy-to-use mobile app.

The Razer FasTrack software featured in the Razer Sila is a proprietary QoS engine for smart traffic management. By using deep packet inspection and adaptive learning technology, Razer FasTrack allows users to prioritize traffic based on application and device types, from mobile phones and smart TVs through to laptops, PCs or consoles. With built-in detection for PlayStation, Xbox and Switch consoles, users can easily fine tune their networks for the smoothest gaming or streaming experiences. Razer FasTrack also features a one-touch gaming mode, to automatically reserve bandwidth for online gaming.

“We are constantly achieving new performance heights with our hardware and software,” notes Min-Liang Tan, Razer co-founder and CEO. “But high precision and low latency can be rendered useless if the WiFi drops. So we took the next step to develop a strong foundation for our ecosystem; with WiFi that just works no matter where you are.”

The Multi-Channel Zero-Wait DFS technology enables clean WiFi channels, allowing the user to avoid network traffic and maintain higher speeds without downtime, hanging, or disconnection. The Razer Sila is capable of advanced mesh networking as well, allowing you to combine two or more units to provide smooth, fast coverage across areas of up to 6,000 square feet with two units or multi-storey locations of up to 6,000 feet with three units.
