The new Linksys Velop MX4200 WiFi 6 Mesh Router (AKA StarHub Smart WiFi Pro).
StarHub’s name for the router is the “StarHub Smart WiFi Pro”.
The MX4200 is StarHub’s first Wi-Fi 6 router and is the product of a continued partnership with Linksys.
Purchasing the Linksys Velop MX4200 WiFi 6 Mesh Router
Subscribers of StarHub’s 1Gbps and 500Mbps Fibre Broadband will not get a free unit, but can purchase one or more of the MX4200 at S$288 per unit or in monthly installments.
Cash and carry router purchase for in-contract customers at S$288 per unit (via ePOS) is available at StarHub Shops and Platinum Shops.
The router combines mesh networking and Wi-Fi 6 technology to promise 4x speed, 4x capacity (compared to Wi-Fi 5) to more than 40 Wi-Fi devices within the home.
The router is especially suited for gamers – who typically subscribe to StarHub’s 2Gbps Fibre Broadband – and desire ultra-low latency and lower ping times.
The 2Gbps plan costs S$62.90 per month.
Those who purchase the MX4200 from StarHub can look forward to firmware upgrades within the year for two additional features that would optimise the home network for gaming and increase speed through intelligent allocation of radio bands (DFS – Dynamic Frequency Selection).
Media briefing by Linksys and StarHub on the Velop MX4200 WiFi 6 mesh router at the company’s office at Level 30, South Beach Tower in Singapore. “Throughout 2020, we have witnessed how pivotal stable connection is for every household as the modern world shifts to normalise home-based learning and working from home. 400 million Southeast Asians – nearly 70 percent of the population – are now online. In Singapore alone, 90 percent of the population are connected online. This increase means demand for faster internet connection will only continue to grow exponentially. Through this partnership with StarHub, we believe that our WiFi 6 offerings will successfully meet consumers’ demand for next generation ultra-high-speed router technology,” said Jenny Ng, General Manager for Asia, Linksys.
