Like other Xiaomi router, Mi AX9000 runs MiWiFi smart router operating system based on OpenWrt with WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK/WPA3-SAE security, Wireless access control, and a control interface available via a browser or Android/iOS MiWiFi app. The router ships with a 12V/4A power adapter, one Ethernet cable, and a user manual.

Now you may wonder how a new frequency band can work with other devices… But based on the chart below from National Instruments, 5.2 GHz and 5.8 GHz are actually already supported by 802.11ax standard. It’s just that both frequencies may not be supported by all routers, so Xiaomi’s marketing team pushed it a bit by claiming this is a tri-band router.

802.11ax frequenciesXiaomi Mi AX9000 WiFI 6 Enhanced is still an interesting router for people wanting higher performance, or many clients connected to a router. It is currently offered on Aliexpress for $223.99 plus shipping.
