The R6400 pushed by the Aunt last week should have been started by many people. The price in the same router is almost invincible. Of course, I can't miss it. But in the comments, many people didn’t understand that it had flawed features. The old driver's car
I can often see someone asking "What is the difference between these five hundred and six hundred routers and dozens of one hundred?" Then, as a non-professional, I come to talk about the usefulness of smart routers in the white language.
About performanceAs we all know, all routers that connect to the router have the same IP address, and the IP addresses of multiple devices connected to the router are different in the LAN. Therefore, the router needs to distribute the content returned by the external network to different addresses where different devices reside. , and this extranet - intranet address translation work is done by the cpu router.
In the past, there were few devices that couldn’t be felt. Now everyone has several mobile tablet computers connected to their homes. In the past two years, the number of various smart appliances has soared. Televisions, air conditioners, rice cookers, air purifiers, etc. With so many devices, there are few 2.4G channels, and old routers in the past could certainly not handle it.
The more data you process, the more memory you need, so we need more powerful routers. Which should pay attention to these several hardware parameters: wireless transmission rate, CPU, memory (runspace), flash (put system firmware)
For example, the hardware configuration of the R6400 purchased last week is dual-band 450M+1300M wireless speed, 800MHz CPU, 128MB flash memory, 256MB memory, and it should be regarded as the mainstream configuration for mass consumption.
Another Asus AC66U is basically the same configuration and is the highest-selling ASUS router. However, both of its USB are 2.0, and R6400 has a 3.0 faster.
As for the R6400, it is still not possible to brush Merlin's firmware, so the Induction Cooker (R6300v2) is also good. The configuration is the same as that of USB 3.0.
The question that many other people will ask is "Which is better than Xiaomi."
The following is the official website cut-off parameters, 128MB flash memory +128MB memory, wireless speed 300M +867M, configuration and cost-effective in the same price products are not bad. The less demanding white user chooses it, but the stability is definitely worse. After all, millet focuses on fever for 30 years. I'm still more willing to choose a more professional router brand.
Gigabit wireless transmission rate is very necessary, although the current home fiber is generally 100 trillion, but the bandwidth of these Gigabit routers is more for internal exchanges, so that the devices within the LAN to each other between the high speed transmission. Such as DLNA, private cloud and so on.
And we do not think that he can have such a high speed with a target of 1,000 megabytes. The speed of wireless transmission will be attenuated with distance. In actual transmission, 1750 Mbps will only have a speed of more than ten megabits.
The 5300M has a speed of 70+ (a picture of borrowed glucose)
You can't watch a movie right at the router, so it's definitely as fast as possible. However, the price will go up when the performance is strong. AC5300M has to be more than two thousand. So if you look at the price/performance ratio, then it's basically right to choose a large sales volume.
What are the functions of a smart router?Can not be excused, first make an app can use the mobile phone to control is the first step of intelligence. Viewing network conditions, managing connected devices, transferring files, and restarting the router can all be done on the phone. Today's routers basically have their own apps.
Another smarter feature is Beamforming signal gain.
The meaning should be to increase the signal according to your position, and I can't understand it. In contrast, the 2.4G is relatively intuitive, and the new router with Beamforming is better. However, it may also be related to power, and the old routing power may be smaller.
QoS smart rate limit
If you are playing games or watching live broadcasts, low latency is important. After the QoS is turned on, it will intelligently provide different processing priority levels for different data flows. First, it ensures that real-time data will not be lost due to network congestion. For example, after I started QoS, I don’t know how he measured the speed of the uplink.
Now that the Thunder is hung on one side, the speed of the Thunder seems to be limited and the delay of the picture is relatively low.
Background downloader
The smart router basically has the function of background BT download. After selecting the seed, it can automatically go down to the external USB memory, and basically supports eMule and FTP download.
Build a private cloud
This should also be the most used feature for everyone. From computers and mobile phones, you can access USB storage devices, transfer files, play video, and so on, all through WiFi, and no longer have wired connections.
Automatic backup function
It is possible to back up the changes on the PC to the router's external hard drive and restore it when needed, just like iTunes does. The following is the backup software of the netware. The backup contents will exist in a folder with the same name as the computer.

Although the Internet has to follow the Basic Law ah, but every day along with Zhang Aunt Haitao, how can this not be done? Now many router firmware support, the specific I have no comment
In addition, smart routers can also be installed with other plug-in applications. There are many advanced gameplay methods, and some require brushing other firmware. These are the tutorials for the gods. I just told the white guys what features of the smart router are different from traditional routers, and give some references to people who need to buy routers.
The landlord also knows little about it. If you say the wrong place, please let me point out that if you use the science to observe the ball on the Internet, I will accept it humbly.
