Introduction: At present, routers have become an indispensable device in people's life. When people go anywhere, they will ask, "Is there any WiFi?" This is modern life, and WiFi2 is indispensable. Smart home is the future trend, and router is the nerve center of smart home, and openness is the key. For users, the problem of how to buy a router with high cost performance has also been put in front of them. How to maximize the WiFi signal and maximize the network speed in all corners of the family. Whether using mobile phones, tablets, computers, or other intelligent devices, one-stop management of these devices is also a big problem. Now there are many types of routers on the market, Customers are dazzled and have no way to start, but the style of the router has not changed much. Nowadays, people often watch videos, but the problem of advertising has been bothering users and buying members, which is also a huge expense. This is a dilemma. What I bring to you today is One set supports lifelong VIP members of Sohu Video, and has the family private cloud function. Users can achieve real-time upload and sharing functions through mobile APP operation. In addition, it also has the newifi new route 2 with online anti scratch network reminder function. Let you no longer worry about whether to spend money to buy members to advertise. Now let's follow the author to show you the new route 2 of this wonderful router NEWIFI

Open box display:

The router is packed in a cardboard gift box, which is now used. I don't know whether it was brought in by a certain meter, but it really conforms to the current concept of environmental protection. The package looks very fashionable, and the external packaging is simple. The logo on the front of the newifi and the sticker on the back detail the product parameter information. The large JD+logo is extra conspicuous, indicating that it is a product of cooperation with JD Smart. Because the box is a flip type, it is very easy to open the box. The box size is not large, unlike the polar route 3 at the same price used by the author before. The box is large, and the router size is also larger than the new route. Compared with the two, I prefer the new route 2, which is compact and full of functions

When I opened the box, I didn't see today's main character, New Route, lying quietly in a protective film. 2. I vaguely saw the pure white. 　 The appearance design of newifi New Route 2 is full of science and technology. The simple white body perfectly matches the home style, and it is definitely the "little fresh meat" in the intelligent route industry.

Let's give the newifi2 a family photo. From the top left to the bottom right are routers, user manuals, warranty cards, and power cords. These, like most routers, have nothing to show for themselves. The highlight is that we can clearly see the gap of the power cord plug, the power plug with unique shape, another breakthrough in the traditional design, the simple gap design, but it brings great beauty. Here, the author specially reminds customers that they must read the instructions carefully before using them. There are detailed setting procedures and instructions on keys on the router. To avoid problems, we'd better have a good look!

There is a small label on the front, which says the basic process of how to set up a router. It is simple and easy to understand. The newifi new route 2 after removing the front quick setting sticker is white, simple and fashionable.

The large hollowed out design on the back can intuitively build in the metal heat sink. With good heat dissipation capacity, it can further ensure the long-term operation of the route. The upper and lower three anti slip foot pads stably support the newifi new route 2 host., The chamfer design also allows the side of the fuselage to have heat dissipation capacity, while avoiding dust accumulation. The indicator light is located at the thinnest part of the front end. Since it is on the reverse side, it is inconvenient to observe the routing operation status at ordinary times. I think that designing the front LOGO as an indicator light will add a lot of points.

The basic data is CPU： It adopts the high-end dual core CPU scheme in the market - MT7621A, which is the fastest dual core router of MTK so far. The highest frequency can reach 880MHz × 2, and its performance is nearly four times higher than that of MT7620.

Flash memory (FLASH): NOR FLASH flash memory card is used, with large capacity and high stability.

Antenna: Symmetrical balanced dipole antenna, also known as quasi flat antenna technology, is used. The quasi flat antenna combines flat antenna and handheld antenna technology, with stronger signal coverage, no blind spots and dead angles, and adjustable antenna direction. The signal coverage is elliptical and spherical, which fits the modern household style.

Full gigabit ports: 2 gigabit LAN ports, 1 gigabit WAN port, 1200AC gigabit wireless. It is a real full gigabit intelligent router

This is the place where the memory card is placed. We can clearly see that some of the places are shaded and concave. When using, you can tear off the adhesive to insert the memory card. This design can protect the memory card slot after normal production.

Rear side interface: power socket, WAN, LAN * 2, USB * 2, RESET key.

The newifi new route 2 also innovated boldly on the antenna, using symmetrical balanced dipole antenna, which successfully overturned the traditional impression of ordinary router rod antenna. In addition, the new route 2 also adopts the world's first rotating axis antenna design, which enables the antenna to fold 80 °, forming a notebook like fold line, and the signal spreads in an elliptical sphere. Users can adjust the direction of the antenna cover plate according to the room pattern at will, which also greatly avoids the annoying uneven signal phenomenon. This is a highlight, which breaks through the traditional router rod antenna technology and has stronger signal coverage. On the front of the panel is an outward expanding signal pattern, and on the back is a 2.4G/5G dual frequency prompt.

LED lights have three colors, red, blue and yellow represent different working states. Users can clearly judge the working conditions of the router by querying the instructions and the light color flicker. The light is set at the bottom. Even in the late night, users will not be disturbed by this light, which is very soft.

PC end introduction:

I

　 According to the step prompts on the quick setting, after powering on and connecting to the wifi, enter newifi.com or 192.168.99.1 in the computer browser, and then complete the initialization configuration of the router according to the prompts. I won't repeat it here. The management interface of the router is clear and clear. There are many applications in the application management. In fact, as a user, many applications are useless. The most practical one is Xunlei remote download. After the application is installed, it will appear in the upper row as an icon. To view the files on the external hard disk, the author found that only by adding maps can he view them. (In the routing management, only the file names in the hard disk can be viewed, and cannot be opened.). In my opinion, the unit of memory can be changed to M, which is more familiar now. The unit of KB is too small, so the display of memory is not intuitive.

Mobile APP display:

First, we connect to the WiFi of the new route. The WiFi name is shown on the stickers and instructions on the router. The name starts with newifi. After connecting, the phone will prompt you to log in to WiFi. After we set the password, we can download the APP

Since the new route is produced in cooperation with JD Smart, we can directly log into the JD account when logging in

Then we can bind the router.

　 APP The home page interface has download speed display, Sohu video VIP receiving prompt, video recommendation and connected device view.

　　 About Sohu Video For VIP members to receive activities, as long as the route sharing service is enabled to ensure that the route is online for more than 16 hours every day, they can get 24 hours of free membership rights. One day online, one day free. The author speculated that it should be to share the upload bandwidth of your home broadband, and give the idle network traffic to Sohu, and Sohu will reward your members. When you log in to the Sohu video account for the first time, the system will automatically give you members for two days to use. After two days, you have to see whether the routing sharing service is met. But basically, our routers are open 24 hours a day, so this requirement can be easily met. amount to The 148 yuan/year Sohu video VIP membership benefits are free to use,

In addition to the benefits of watching Sohu videos, users can also make full use of the seed resources on the network to download the seeds from the mobile phone to the router through the new route 2, and make full use of the idle bandwidth of the family, so that users can easily download the videos when they go out and watch them directly when they go home. The downloaded resources can be stored in an external hard disk, External hard disks can be purchased according to your needs. The new route 2 is also very considerate.

In order to avoid function simplification, the new route 2 also provides many other functions, such as home private cloud, online anti scratch network reminder, etc. The home private cloud function provided by New Route 2 mainly takes into account the user's photo needs, which is similar to Apple's photo upload. The difference is that the server is on New Route 2. Users can send photos from their mobile phones to New Route 2. New Route 2 will automatically sort, sort, and backup, In this way, users will not worry about the loss of photos and the lack of memory in the phone due to photo storage, and it is obviously safer to store photos in their own routers than in online disks.

I don't know why a few videos in APP don't support playing. If you want a better experience, you'd better go to the Sohu video client.

This is an internal tab. I hope you can set a custom name for the connected device to facilitate identification. APP The main function of the terminal is video. There is less management and setting of the router. The biggest complaint is that the files on the external hard disk cannot be viewed. I hope it can be improved later!

Summary:

In general, this product is not as good as I thought, but the price position, resource sharing, free annual fee of Sohu, resource sharing, and unique appearance settings are relatively new. Finally, the author puts forward some suggestions.

1. The software APP has too few functions. I hope you can customize the name of the connected device and manage the speed limit.

2. The APP is unable to manage plug-ins and connected devices such as hard disks. It is hoped that plug-ins can be downloaded and installed on the APP with one click. Moreover, there are very few plug-ins currently, which cannot meet the needs of all people.

3. I hope that more video websites can be accessed to give users a better video experience. Since this router is currently the main video industry in my opinion, I hope to get more high-quality resources in resources.

   Finally, I would like to thank Lei Feng.com for the opportunity of this trial. This router is still worth buying. It is affordable. Sohu lifelong members enjoy the best video experience, offline download, resource sharing, and no more details. It has been mentioned above. Thank you. I hope some suggestions can be put forward and the author will make good corrections
