Double-band AC12 router from Mercusys creates an extremely fast Wi-Fi network using the 802.11ac. standard. A network created in this standard is three times faster than networks based on the 802.11n standard. The AC standard is becoming more and more popular, so a suitable router can be the key to an efficient Wi-Fi network.
Thanks to double-band Wi-Fi you can use the potential of more wireless devices. The first bandwidth offered by the AC12 router with a speed of 300Mbps 2.4Ghz will be great for checking emails and surfing the Internet. However, when the second band with a speed of 867Mbps 5GHz includes high bandwidth tasks such as streaming in HD quality and playing the most demanding online games. Both bands are used at the same time, so we can do both at the same time.
Four antennas with 5dBi gain power will provide perfect coverage throughout your home or office. You don't have to worry about spots with no WiFi range anymore. The AC12 Router is designed to prevent this.
Router AC12 is equipped with parental control, which allows you to easily set up a white or black list and limit your Internet access time. Access Control will allow you to decide whether or not to grant your guests access to a Wi-Fi network, protecting your privacy.
Without the need for complicated configuration, you can simply follow the three steps on the manufacturer's intuitive website.

The answer to this question is included in the product description.
To reset the AC1200, hold down the "Reset" button on the rear panel of the router for about 8 seconds, right next to the power outlet.
To reset the password to the router, select "System tools" and then "Login Password" in the router's management panel. The next step is to enter your old password and the new one (the one you are going to use). Then just confirm the new password and save by clicking "Save".
To get to the management panel you should (after connecting to the AC1200 router) go to mwlogin.net or the default address 192.168.1.1. On the page you just need to enter the login and password that we set when configuring the router.
