Announcements

• Here are the new Linksys routers announced at CES 2017 on Singapore Hardware Zone

"The EA9400 is an AC4000-class router. The speed rating is achieved by broadcasting 750Mbps on its 2.4GHz network and 1625Mbps each on its two 5GHz networks. It is powered by a 1.8GHz quad-core processor and features 512MB of RAM and 256MB of ROM. The interesting thing about the EA9400 router is that it supports WAN and LAN aggregation."

This describes the CPU used in the EA9500 v2 but also suggests a 3SS device using acqam instead of a 4SS device. The picture shows only 4x LAN ports instead of 8. This seems to suggest that some of our information may be wrong or plans changed after CES.
