G10 Design Concept

Speed, coverage and stability are the basics for a router, however to make one attractive is the difficult part.
While most routers follow a dull uniformed mold, users tend to hide them in shame, behind shelves or under the table. Hence, we've made ASRock G10 into a futuristic and vogue art piece that deserves to be put under the spotlight.
Aside from the superficial design, our engineers introduced the Internet of Things technology to make this router even more practical. By adding infrared receivers and transmitters, you can remotely control your home appliances with your mobile devices.
Furthermore, a travel router, Ethernet adapter plus HDMI dongle hybrid called H2R comes with the G10 router, just like icing on the cake! Now, you are entitled to high speed connections and wireless sharing with ASRock G10.

Background Story
The design concept of our prototype began from a router/decorative for the living room, or even an art piece for public spaces. Therefore we decided to create a stereoscopic tower shaped router.

Remote Control

G10's advanced Remote Control technology enables secure and hassle free connectivity across multiple NATs. Forget those traditional setup methods such as fixed private IP, fixed public IP, DDNS, port forwarding and firewall rules. With G10 it's simple as signing up for a user account and registering your router, plus its machine to machine direct connect is much faster than traditional relay servers.

Self-Healing

Most users keep their routers powered on twenty four seven, but what they fail to realize is that after long periods of time the performance and stability decreases. Self-Healing is a configurable mechanism for the G10 router to automatically reboot upon scheduled hours, it keeps the performance and stability at its peak and also extends the lifespan of the router.

Easy Setup

Users are automatically directed to the configuration page upon connecting their systems to ASRock G10, regardless of any kind of browser. The user friendly interface allows newbies to automatically detect internet configurations, upgrade firmware and optimize bandwidth.
