Acer Connect Vero W6m
When it comes to Acer, products like WiFi routers are rarely mentioned, but that's the latest type of product that was shown at their booth as well. Acer has introduced the Acer Connect Vero W6m, their first WiFi 6E router that is also seen using the Vero brand that uses PCR (Post Consumer Recyclable) materials in its frame.
It supports WiFi 6E Tri-band AXE7800 technology which supports three wireless frequencies, including 2.4GHz, 5.0GHz and 6.0GHz and has a local data transmission speed as fast as 7.8Gbps.

Even more interesting, you can also connect this WiFi router with other units to further extend the radius of the WiFi connection area with one or three additional units, up to 930m².
30 percent of the Acer Connect Vero W6m router frame also uses the PCR material mentioned before, where the bundle also uses 100 percent recycled material.
Closing
At the COMPUTEX Taipei 2023 event, it can be shown that Acer does not focus on just one type of product, but is seen to offer something for the public, regardless of whether it is a productivity or gaming class laptop, in fact, it can be said that the products which is not expected is also shown in their court.
