preface:
With the increase of people's use of intelligent devices, more and more intelligent routers have sprung up in the market. However, wireless routing signals have always been attached great importance, especially for families with large living areas. Sometimes the signals of a wireless router cannot be completely covered, and relay devices need to be added in the future. Today we are going to experience the Bihoo Smart Router Plus, which is a smart router suitable for families and small businesses. The signal is relatively strong, and even villas can be fully covered. Let's take a look at the performance of this Bihoo Smart Router Plus.
Unpacking:
The packaging of Bihoo Smart Router Plus is simple. It is a white long box with a label of Lei Feng's trial on the front. Look carefully, there is another
There is a sticker on the bottom of the box, on which some information is simply printed. It can be seen that the strong routing is mainly targeted at families or small and medium-sized enterprises. In addition, there is a WeChat QR code, which is the WeChat public account of the Bihoo router. You can get more product information by following this account.
Open the upper cover, The Bihoo intelligent router plus is placed in the tray prepared in advance, and it is fixed well.
With tray Take out the Bihoo intelligent router plus, and the following is the manual.
The following parts are in the manual, The accessories of Bihoo Smart Router plus include a power adapter and a network cable.
Details of Bihoo intelligent router plus:
The appearance of the Bihoo Smart Router plus is rectangular, and the surface is very smooth. The traditional antenna cannot be seen. The upper part is white, which looks very clean. The lower part is surrounded by a metal enclosure, which is the antenna of the route. At the same time, it can also serve as a fixed router. There is also an indicator light on the surface of the router. It looks like a rectangular box, which is difficult to connect with the wireless router. In fact, this is an intelligent router with wireless function.
The size of Bihoo Smart Router is not small. It is much larger than a 6-inch mobile phone... The comparison will be more intuitive.
The material of antenna is similar to magnesium aluminum alloy, which is relatively thick.
The interfaces of the Bihoo intelligent router are concentrated on the narrow side. From left to right, there are power interfaces, reset keys, and LAN interfaces. Each interface is marked in English, The power interface of Bihoo intelligent router is the form of network cable interface.
The bottom of the Bihoo intelligent router is also white, with the sign on the right tiger head on the top and the information such as model and sn code on the bottom. The skid pad slightly protruding on the right of the four corners can ensure that the route can be placed stably. The bottom of the Bihoo intelligent router has a magnet, so as long as there are physical objects, they can be adsorbed on it. In this way, Bihoo routers have more placement methods.
When the Bihu route is adsorbed on the vertical surface, the anti slip effect of the four anti slip feet is very obvious.
The manual is attached with the machine. It is beautifully printed and has detailed connection instructions. It is very convenient to use.
A network cable is provided with the machine. This cable is dual-use, which can not only supply power, but also transmit data.
The package of the cable is a paper box, The connection method of the power cord is illustrated on the box, which is very intuitive.
The network cable randomly brought is relatively long. The crystal head of the network cable is blue, and the interface color of the routing and power adapter is consistent.
Line sequence is the standard line sequence
There is a protective plastic paper on the surface of the power adapter.
The power adapter is a bit large, and the output is: 24v 0.8A
The charging adapter also has two interfaces, the power interface and the network interface, of which the network interface is used to connect the cat to the Internet.
The indicator light of Bihoo Routing is different in different working environments. The red light flashes just after starting up. It turns blue when it works normally. Red and blue flash alternately when there is no network connection.
Signal:
As a wireless route, the strength of the signal is very important. Now let's test several routes.
The route can be placed horizontally or vertically, and can also be adsorbed on the surface of iron objects. This is because there are magnets on the lower surface of Bihu Route.
The signal strength when the distance is 1 meter from the route.
The following figures show the signal intensity of Bihu Route is quite good, with one wall 3 meters away from the signal, two walls 7 meters away from the signal, two walls 8 meters away from the signal, and three walls 11 meters away from the signal.
App management
For intelligent routers, they all support wireless terminal management. Bihoo intelligent routers are no exception. First, they can access the login web page for management. Second, they can download special app applications for management. The difference is that apps can be applied to more options. If you are not suitable for mobile device management such as mobile phones, you can also use computer management.
When using the Bihoo router for the first time, if the Bihoo router app is not installed on the mobile phone, when the mobile phone is connected to the Bihoo router through wifi, the settings of the router will automatically jump and prompt you to connect to the wan port (this port is above the power supply). This means that if the wan port is not connected, you cannot continue to set it. It seems that the Bihoo intelligent router plus does not support the wireless bridge function.
If the mobile phone has installed the Bihoo router app, you will be prompted that the detected Bihoo router cannot access the Internet and needs to be set up. You still need to connect to the wan port.
When connecting the computer and the Bihoo router with the network cable and logging in 192.168.62.1 through the computer to manage the Bihoo router, we still encounter the problem of wan port detection.
It can be seen that if you want to use Bihoo Land Rover as a wireless relay, there is no way to achieve the setting function in these three cases. In other words, the router cannot be set without connecting the wan port and the cat.
After connecting the WAN port, you can enter the normal setting interface. There are only three cases: broadband Internet access, dynamic IP and static IP.
After the network settings are successful, you will enter the wireless settings.
After setting the password of the wifi, you need to reconnect. This is the list of three wifi Must tiger The signal is connected to the wifi name we just set. At this time, we can manage the route, but the function is relatively small. We can download the app to further manage the router.
After installing the Bihoo Wifi security steward, you can further manage the routes. There is a special function of Bihoo's intelligent routing - a detailed description of Bihoo's secure sharing of wifi, Bihoo can safely share wifi through network sharing to achieve a certain economic income. This is a good idea. It can not only make full use of network resources, but also increase your income.
The connected and shared wifi will prompt for "reward". The payment method is WeChat. After reward, you can use the network.
When you open the app for the first time, you will be prompted to log in, otherwise it cannot be used. After logging in, you can optimize the route and set various functions
You can view the geographical location of the terminal and test the network speed, Optimize network 。
Be able to modify personal information.
In the management of Bihoo devices, more information should be visible in the networking status normally. However, in the actual test, when there is a network, options such as plug-ins cannot be turned on. When the wan port network cable is unplugged, options such as plug-ins and shared networks can be turned on. This is very puzzling.
In the plug-in options, you can adjust the signal strength, set the route, measure the speed, set the timing switch and other functions of wifi.
In the setting of signal strength, you can choose the house type, but there is no villa type to choose from, which is very strange.
Bihoo intelligent routing supports community connections, and can communicate with other users directly through the community. If WiFi sharing is enabled, financial management can be performed in the wallet option.
Security:
The security performance of Bihoo's intelligent router is good. It cannot be cracked unless packet capturing and brute force cracking are used. It's hard to rub the net..
Summary:
As an intelligent router, the signal strength of the Bihoo intelligent router plus is satisfactory. After actual measurement, it is no problem to penetrate two floors. That is to say, it can meet the needs of ordinary villa residents, and of course, it can also be used by small and micro enterprises. Wifi security sharing also has some innovations, which can use idle network resources to generate revenue. Bihu intelligent router plus The appearance is quite beautiful. The new antenna shape is adopted instead of the traditional antenna, which greatly enhances the overall aesthetic feeling.
However, there are some problems in app applications, such as the lack of support for wireless bridging and over reliance on the network when managing routes. I hope these problems can be improved in the future version upgrades.
As a user, if the living area is large, choose Bihoo intelligent router plus is still a very good solution. After all, the signal is strong, the coverage area is large, and the security is also good.
