Remember that time when you had to perform a sort of sword dance ritual with your dysfunctional TV remote in order to make it work? To refresh your memory, it involved fanatical waving, twisting your arms into unfathomable yoga positions, and lots and lots of cursing. Those barbaric days of the dark past are almost over, pretty soon you can use ASRock Gaming's new router G10 to turn your smart phone into a universal remote controller.

ASRock Gaming's G10 is the combination of the internet of things and a powerful router. It learns the infrared signals of let's say your TV remote, and assigns it to your smart phone with the ASRock Router APP, which is soon arriving to both Google Play and App Store. Then you may use your smart phone to command your G10 router through WiFi or 3G/4G, and make it remotely control the TV through infrared signals. Power it up, flip through channels, crank up the volume without even bothering to point your phone towards the telly.



In addition, ASRock Gaming G10's sovereignty isn't limited to only televisions. As long as the device you wish to control is paired with an infrared signal remote control, such as game consoles, air conditioners, heaters or whatever, G10 will learn the signals in a snap and allow you to control them anywhere.

Sounds interesting, looks pretty cool as well!

Is it just me, or does it look like someone took a hammer to a PS2 and then mounted the ASrock logo and a blue LED?

I really have no imagination for industrial design.....gaming router how it didn't occur to me, to expect it on the market. Should've known it after the pro-SLI-bridge, I guess.

This however, might have some sense to it. I will check it later.

Smart remote for your smartphone/tablet to control your tv and change channels and there is a fucking button on the xbox controller that turns it on and off. That feature set of the router is worthless and unnecessary. This product is a waste of money.

The CES coverage was wayyyyyy better than this PR. I generally avoid "gaming" anything, and most AsRock products, but this router looks awesome.

So, a gaming router is a device that can open or close a TV.
GOT THAT!
So, I guess that means that a remore control is a device where you play games.
