Do I need a subscription?

No. The firewall, rooms and device approval work with no subscription, for one price. Only Rio VPN is a paid plan, and your first year is included.

What happens after the free year of Rio VPN?

Rio VPN is optional. It renews at $79.99 a year, or $7.99 a month, and you can cancel before the year ends and not be charged. Your router, rooms and device approval keep working without it.

Why is Rio $199.99 when I can buy a cheaper router?

A cheaper router gives you Wi-Fi. Rio gives you Wi-Fi 6, up to 16 walled-off rooms, approval for every new device and a year of Rio VPN, with no monthly fee for any of it.

Will Rio work with my internet provider?

Yes. Rio plugs in behind your provider’s modem and takes over as your router, so it works with the internet you already pay for. The app walks you through it.

Do I need to be technical to set up Rio?

No. Plug Rio in behind your modem, scan the QR code on the back, and the app walks you through every step. Plan on about 10 minutes. If you can install an app, you can set up Rio.

Is Rio fast enough for my internet plan?

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.

How much of my home does Rio cover?

One Rio covers up to 4,800 sq ft and 150+ devices. For bigger homes or dead zones, add Rios on the same Wi-Fi name, up to 8 in all and 38,000 sq ft.

Will my devices work with Rio?

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.

Do I pay for shipping or app updates?

No. Shipping is free and app updates are free.

What if Rio isn’t right for me?

Send it back within 30 days. Every Rio also has a 1-year warranty and free app updates, so you’re covered either way.

One router. One price. Done tonight.

Rooms for every gadget. Nothing new joins without your OK.
