No. HP stands for hign power. n stands for 11n.

When in doubt, go to the routerboard web page for the specs of all models.

Ex. https://routerboard.com/RBMetal9HPn

It has nothing to do with high power.

Maybe you should take the time to read before answering.

https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Product_Naming

HP stands for "high power". MikroTik names tell you what the router is all about.

Good grief people. Wake up!! :evil:

"irghost" wants to know if the Metal9HPn supports 802.11ah.

How do you find the answer? NOT BY READING THE 802.11 STANDARDS. BY READING MIKROTIK SPECS (routerboard.com) AND, YES, KNOWING NAMING CONVENTIONS.

Is it so hard to grasp?

Edit your post then downrate mine because I corrected what may well have just been a typo.

Whatever man.

I can understand how this looks, but I edited my comment days after the downrate to factor in ROS changes that I'd just noted. There was no typo, only an omittion that didn't make my comment unreadable.
I stand by my rant as I didn't feel it justifiable to get the "nothing to do" reply.

the RBmetal9 is a 2.4GHz radio downconverted to 900MHz.

802.11ah is the new 900MHz standard and there is no hardware out that supports it yet.
