Dynamic QoS identifies your online activities by application and device, and then utilizes bandwidth allocation, and traffic prioritization techniques, to automatically allocate more bandwidth to latency sensitive applications like online gaming and video streaming, while ensuring that lower priority applications continue to work.

Dynamic QoS resolves Internet traffic congestion when you have competing Internet demands at home. If you like gaming and streaming videos, then you'll benefit from Dynamic Quality of Service (QoS). Even if everyone and everything in the home that’s connected to the Internet is streaming, gaming, working, playing, socializing or updating at the same time, the X8 won’t miss a beat-you’ll enjoy seamless clarity and zero lag. Load Balancing distributes WiFi devices ensuring usage of both the 5GHz WiFi bands. X8 uses Smart Connect to optimize WiFi performance by intelligently assigning every device to the fastest WiFi band possible and doing so allows devices to connect at their maximum speed. The Nighthawk X8 AC5300 Smart WiFi Router with breakthrough Tri-Band WiFi technology delivers a massive combined wireless speed of up to 5.3Gbps. Six gigabit Ethernet ports means even more wired devices can connect and with port aggregation 2 ports can combine to double maximum wired speeds. Four external Active Antennas plus four internal antennas amplify WiFi range. Tri-Band WiFi and Quad Stream performance boosts X8's combined wireless speeds to up to 5.3Gbps. The Nighthawk X8 AC5300 Smart WiFi Router is the next wave in WiFi.
