[Special project] Where is the gaming router different from ordinary routers?

First, let's introduce how the gaming router is different from a general router.

First, let's look at the appearance.Generally speaking, gaming routers are the image that the antenna is standing in large quantities, but the "Nighthawk XR500" has four antennas standing.The front of the body has an air intake like a car front grill.The V-shaped LED on the front shows the power supply, Internet connection, and Wi-Fi connection status on the left, and the right side indicates the connection status to the LAN port on the back.

On the back is a press button -type on -off button and five gigabit e -canet LAN ports on the back.There is also a switch to turn on the front LED, so it is safe for those who are worried about dazzling at night after installing it in the room.

There are two antennas, two on the side and two on the back.Each angle can be changed.Other accessories include AC adapters, Category 5e LAN cables, and instruction manuals.

The basic specifications are as follows.It supports dual bands that can use two frequencies, 5GHz band and 2.4GHz band at the same time, and speeds up the communication using four antennas, such as a beam forming that detects the optimal position of the terminal and delivers radio waves.It is equipped with various technologies, such as 4x4 MIMO, MU-MIMO (multi-user MIMO), which does not drop in communication speed even when multiple terminals are connected.

The living room was set on the first floor of a two -story detached house.If you use the "Aterm WG1200HS" used for this time, if you go up to the second floor, the radio waves will weaken and become unstable, so we usually use a representative, but this unit is firmly radio waves on the second floor.I was able to grab.It depends on the location and the size of the house, but if you have a detached house of about 3LDK, you can build almost a Wi-Fi environment for the whole house.

It supports IPv6, but unfortunately V6 plus is not supported.Nevertheless, it is possible to connect with IPv6 IPoE by choosing a pass -through in the IPv6 settings.There are other connection methods such as 6rd and 6TO4 tunnels.
