Most consumers wouldn’t consider using a gaming router for streaming, but when you look at how many of our daily devices connect to the internet it makes sense.

Before you only needed to have your computer or laptop connected, but now the average household has at least 10 devices connected. Printers, tablets, cell phones, watches, doorbells, speakers, and even scales.

Gaming routers not only reduce lag and latency, they also have top security features and simple to use interfaces. Designed to prevent device disruption and any outside interference, gaming routers are perfect for streaming.
