Most routers put every device on one shared network, so one hacked gadget can reach your laptop. Rio splits your home into up to 16 rooms that are walled off from each other, and every new device needs your approval.
Even with the Wi-Fi password, a new device lands in a waiting area until you tap Approve or Block in the Rio app. Ignore it and it’s declined after 5 minutes. Most routers let anyone with the password straight in.
No. The router, rooms, firewall and device approval are yours for one price. Your first year of Rio VPN is included. After that, Rio VPN is optional at $7.99 a month or $79.99 a year, and everything else keeps working without it.
Yes. Rio is Wi-Fi 6, up to 2,800 Mbps, with a 2.5 Gbps internet port, so it keeps up with fast home plans, gigabit included. Your provider’s plan sets the top speed.
Yes. Phones, laptops, TVs, consoles and smart gadgets join Rio’s Wi-Fi like any router, and it’s built for 150+ devices. Each new device waits for your OK in the app, so nothing joins unseen.
