Others/Networking Gear by stefan @ 2023-09-05

The entry-level to mainstream Atlas Pro 6 and its 2-pack system is easy to set up via smartphone/tablet application and requires very little knowledge from the customer since everything is guided thanks to the included animations. We get 3 LAN ports with each tower to connect devices in wired mode, while the wireless performance remains good even when the signal needs to pass through multiple walls.

Packaging, A Closer Look

Linksys has updated its Velop Intelligent Mesh system with another offering, the Atlas Pro 6, which can be ordered in a single router pack, a system of two or a system of 3, depending on the required area to cover. The system runs on the WiFi 6 (802.11ax) technology, which has reached maturity for quite some time now, comes with simultaneous dual-band 2.4 and 5GHz capabilities, 5 internal antennas, while the 1GHz dual-core processor is assisted by 256MB of flash and 512MB of RAM.

 

The 2-pack system is shipped inside a medium-sized cardboard enclosure, showing a photo of the product right from the top cover. We will be reminded that this system is able to cover large houses with up to 3 or 4 bedrooms, connection of about 60 devices and the total wireless throughput which can be reached is 5400Gbps (Dual-Band Gigabit 600 + 4800 Mbps):

By lifting the top cover, we will get to see that the two units are close together, separated by cardboard material, in order not to get scratched during transit; on the left side we will note the accessories box:

 

 

 

On the top of the bundle box, we will note the two power adapters:

 

 

 

We will also receive a small leaflet in multiple languages, along with a disk with documentation:

 

 

 

The documentation will mostly show how to access the configuration application, but also how to reach the online resources:

 

 

 

The power adapters do come with an extra set of plugs, but we will also receive a LAN cable:

 

 

 

The adapters do share the color scheme of the Atlas Pro 6 towers:
