Background: When it comes to routers, many people know that 5G is faster than 2.4G, but the inherent weakness of 5G routing - poor wall penetration results are a headache for many people. Therefore, 2.4G, which is compatible with the through wall performance and transmission speed, is still the mainstream frequency band in the router industry

Today's experience of the "M-route M1" is a router specially designed for 2.4G frequency band. What are its advantages? Is it worth having? Now let's take a look at my evaluation.

Highlight texture+arched fuselage=elegant appearance

The first impression of Moluccas M1 is beautiful. Hold it in your hand, the highlight pattern on the panel is very conspicuous under the light, and looks very delicate. If you turn the angle, the pattern will be hidden again, which is wonderful. This kind of appearance highlight can really increase the appearance of the router.  

The classic bright silver "M" shaped logo is very conspicuous, which is the symbol of Motorola as a generation of communication king.

The common routers are basically the common flat body, and few router products create new ideas in this regard. However, this motorcycle route M1 is cleverly designed as an arch, which is particularly beautiful both in hand and at home.

The official said that the arch design inspiration came from the Eiffel Tower. It's really interesting to compare it carefully in my mind. However, I can only carry out simple abstraction and association in my mind.

Then take a closer look at the front panel pattern and arched fuselage of the lower friction line, which should be liked by most people.  

The actual use scene of Moluccas is very pleasing. At least I don't need to hide it. I'm going to show it in the living room for guests to enjoy.  

Super heat dissipation+exquisite workmanship=visible quality

Careful users will find that almost all router product promotions involve the keyword "heat dissipation". In fact, heat dissipation is a very important indicator for routers. Especially among home users, there are more and more devices that can access the network, which will inevitably increase the burden on the router. Without good heat dissipation, the performance and stability of the router will be affected.

I found that there is no need to worry about this problem because the whole lower panel is really equipped with cooling holes, and these cooling holes are long in shape, not the point cooling holes used by most manufacturers, so the heat dissipation performance will be better.

Some people are worried about whether such a large area of cooling hole is unsafe, and what if water splashes into it? In fact, if you don't intentionally pour water into the cooling hole, this fear is totally unnecessary. Moreover, the design of the arched fuselage itself raises the contact distance between the cooling hole and the bottom surface.

In addition to the excellent heat dissipation design, the product details also impressed me. Take four antennas as an example. The antenna that can be rotated and folded is very smooth in both storage and adjustment, and the clamping position at the connection of the folded antenna is very accurate. After the antenna is unfolded, it will not shake at all and stands upright.

The four antennas are precisely on the same plane when they are stored. Even an obsessive-compulsive user like me feels that the details of the antenna are impeccable.  

The wires inside the "1+4" mesh ports in the back row of the motorcycle route are very hard, and the workmanship is solid. This kind of material will definitely increase the contact stability and make it more safe to use. From the perspective of these details, the quality of Motorola Route matches its selling price of 239 yuan. These excellent workmanship and details can be seen at a glance, which also conforms to Motorola's impression on users: stable and durable.

Wireless transmission black technology focuses on being the king of 2.4G band

Mobile router has several black technologies in wireless transmission, especially the 256QAM new generation modulation and demodulation technology, which enables the wireless transmission rate of 2.4G band to be as high as 800M, which is much higher than the 350M, 450M and 500M of general 2.4G band routers, and even close to the 5G transmission rate.

So why does Molay have to fight against the 2.4G band instead of the 5G band? Of course, the 2.4G band has many inherent advantages, such as strong wall penetration ability, fast transmission speed, and many adaptive devices. In addition to the fast transmission speed in short distance, the 5G band is not very advantageous in other aspects, and problems like this and that are always encountered in actual use.

The black technology and loud slogans should be put into practice. Test the broadband 20M Unicom optical fiber. After connecting the friction route, the PC end uses a 360 broadband tachometer to measure 7 times, and the value is basically stable between 3.0 and 3.6. The value is relatively stable with little change. In the actual experience, the wireless transmission speed of MobileRoute is really fast, at least it doesn't make me feel stuck after changing the router. Especially when watching videos, I don't have to wait for buffering, which is very smooth. And after a few days of testing, even if there are dozens of networking devices at home, the router has not experienced restart, disconnection, and stuck, and it is very stable to use. This point was intended to be tested by comparing Moluyu with another router in my home, but the two routers have different antenna numbers, frequency bands, and price points, so the comparability is very small, so it can only be described subjectively.

In terms of signal coverage, I have actually tested the mobile router in my own home and company, and confirmed the signal strength by checking the wifi on my mobile phone. As expected, the four independent antennas of Moro Route are very powerful, and the 71 square meter home signal has no blind spots; The 210 square meter office area of the unit is almost covered with signals. There are about 2-3 walls through the wall without signal attenuation, and even the farthest meeting room can access the Internet smoothly. Therefore, the "4-drive independent antenna" and "Tx beamforming technology" of Motorola are indeed effective, and such signal strength can be said to maximize the 2.4G band wireless network.

The management interface is simple, but the functions remain unchanged

As a home router, the simple and friendly management interface is more likely to be favored by users. Especially for female users who are computer savvy, too troublesome operation interface will make them feel unable to start, let alone to operate in person. The management interface of Molay Route adopts a gray and white style, which looks very simple and not messy at all. The classification of each operation is distinguished with a diamond at the top, which is easy to find.

In terms of settings, the most prominent features are commonly used Wifi settings, password settings and other functions. Those functions that are not commonly used, or functions that users think are available or not, are put behind.

Some relatively more advanced functions, such as DMZ host, virtual server and IP filtering, have been put into "More". Obviously, Motorola has worked hard on these details. It makes people feel that the mobile router is very simple to use, but it should have all the functions.

What is worth mentioning here is that the parental control function of MobileRoute is also very easy to use. I believe that no one does not know how to use such an interface. It is a very practical function to control the online time of a computer and the access restrictions of a website through intuitive button selection.

In addition, Moluyu can also be controlled remotely through the mobile phone APP, such as the online control of the device, the switch of the wireless network, and the broadband account setting. However, compared with the PC side, the functions of the mobile phone APP control are much less.

Summary:

Looking back, we think that we must buy a router for a stable, fast and smooth network environment. After going home from work, the mobile phone can be connected smoothly, and there is no signal interruption in every corner of the home; Smart devices at home will not be disconnected frequently when connected to the route, even if dozens of them are connected, it will not affect; And after a long time of use, there will be no small problems every three days. If I don't understand, I have to ask for help. I think these should be the original intention of all router users.

Mo Routing has done a very good job in these aspects. Whether it focuses on achieving the 800 megabyte limit speed in the 2.4G band, or uses various black technologies to increase the coverage and stability of signals, Mo Routing's performance is difficult to find flaws. Watching a network TV, playing a game, and trying to find a way out of it will not delay you. The ability to penetrate the wall is also quite good, even if there are two or three walls, the signal can be full. On the basis of these points, Moluccas can be called "the best choice of 2.4G band". Add in the 239 yuan price, and buy a big brand, attractive, stable, and durable 4-antenna router, which is also very cost-effective.

————

Moluyu also has some imperfections:

1. Although the wall penetrating function is very powerful, the wall penetrating ability is default, and users cannot adjust the strength;

2. Although M-router is a router specially designed for 2.4G frequency band, it is a pity that the router at this price does not have 5G;

3. The management functions of mobile APP are relatively few. It seems that some functions have not been improved and need to be updated.
