Wireless networks are becoming more and more important in life, and there are more and more usage scenarios. Nowadays, no matter where they go, many people always ask "Is there WIFI?". It's really hard to live without WIFI. So, one Easy to use routers are becoming more and more important. I wonder if the B-LINK Bi Lian AC1200U gigabit dual band router to be evaluated today can be satisfactory.

Unpacking

When I received the goods, I was surprised. This box is too big, isn't it. The detailed configuration data and manufacturer information of this router are written above. We can see that the product name is dual band wireless router. Why is it dual band? What is more than single band? Let's leave a suspense for a while. However, I personally suggest that it is unnecessary to design such a large box. Sometimes it is small and exquisite, but it can also be high-end. Such a big box is really a waste.

Then I can't wait to open the package and see the black guy. The whole outside is dark and shiny, very textured. The back is densely covered with heat dissipation holes, and the heat dissipation effect will not be known until it has been used. Four 5dBi dual band AC antenna antennas are erected, The feeling signal is very strong. But we have to try before we know. The antenna can be folded, and it can be folded when it is placed in the marshalling box.

The design of the jack is very standard. There is nothing special about it. In addition to the power socket, there are also WAN ports and four LAN ports in the rear, which can connect four wired devices at the same time. It is completely enough for home use. In terms of accessories, in addition to the power adapter, I also brought a piece of network cable.

The recovery key is designed as a small button, which can be pressed for a long time to restore factory settings. Instead of the pinhole button, you don't need to find tools every time you press the restore button, which is very convenient. The effect of these cooling holes on the back is also very obvious. The problem of too high temperature has not occurred even after several days of continuous operation.

Usage

After you plug in the power supply and network cable, you need to set it. Open the default background in the browser and fill in the broadband account password. There are many people who can't remember their broadband passwords. How about this? No problem Since it is an intelligent router, how can it even solve this small problem? Connect the Bilian router to the old router, and you can automatically extract the broadband account password. This function is very necessary. We can also set the dns directly in it. If there is no dns, it can be left empty.

Then there is the wireless network settings, which are different from ordinary routers. There is only one WiFi setting for other routers, while two wireless networks can be set for Bilian routers. This is where the so-called dual band router comes from. Generally speaking The network cable network of the router has only one 2.4G frequency band, while the Bilian router can set an additional 5G network on this basis. The two networks can exist at the same time without affecting each other. The 5G network is known from the name, and the signal is more Strong, faster.

However, there is also a visitor function in the Bilian router. After it is enabled, a visitor network can be created. When there are guests at home, it can be enabled for them. After they are linked, the network will be hidden from other people's search, but It does not affect the use of linked devices.

Another highlight of this router is that it supports Alibaba Smart APP. Alibaba Smart is an Internet of Things platform built by Alibaba, which aims to create an intelligent home life. Now many home appliance manufacturers have joined in Platforms. After we install this APP in the mobile phone, we can see the operation of the router on the mobile phone anytime, anywhere.

Bilian router has many functions in app. First, log in to a Taobao account, then recognize the router's signal, add binding, and let's see what functions they have.

The network can be allocated and speed limited. When you go out, you can also see whether there is anyone scratching the network. You can remotely control the closing and opening of the router, which is very intelligent. The network speed can also be optimized and adjusted. It can also block ad pages. This function makes me confused, because I can't see the specific content of the blocking, only see the numbers, and don't have a clear sense of what ads are blocked.

In addition, it can also be set to automatically switch on and off on a regular basis. It can be turned off when sleeping at night or going out without using the network. Energy conservation and emission reduction contribute to environmental protection.

There is also a network acceleration function, but I saw the test results after the trial, and didn't see too obvious changes.

You can also set a new device link reminder in the app. When a new device is added, it will push a reminder on the mobile phone, so we can know at the first time if someone is surfing the network. In addition, it has the function of anti surfing. In general, the security performance of this router is very high.

Not only that, but also the online trajectories of connected devices, software used, websites logged in, etc. can be seen in the APP. This function is necessary for parents to see what their children have done on the network. However, after testing, I found that many apps were not installed on mobile phones.

As for signal strength, several devices such as mobile phones and tablets were tested respectively. My home is 95 square meters, and I put the router in the living room. The connection signal in any corner of my home is full, and the download speed is also very fast. The network speed is not significantly reduced after two walls. The 5G band network also avoids the most crowded band, and will no longer worry about frequent wifi drops.

summary

Compared with the price of the product, the cost performance ratio is relatively high. It has many advantages, high appearance, beautiful appearance, high signal strength and fast network transmission speed. However, after the trial evaluation, I still have some suggestions. The volume of the product can be made smaller. The home junction box can't be put in, so it can only be put on the TV cabinet.
