With the development of mobile Internet, more and more devices need to use the network to complete a series of functions. Without the network, nothing can be said about it. Therefore, in terms of networking, routers have become an important link in the Internet era. For this reason, more and more communication manufacturers have begun to enter the ranks of routers, Among them, there are Xiaomi, Meizu, etc., and Motorola, as a world-famous old brand of communication equipment manufacturing! Also unwilling to lag behind, Motorola held a new product launch conference in Jiangsu on December 22, 2016, and launched an march into the routing market! And this router M1 is positioned as a high-end wireless router series for home users. Although your router, which is known as "the fastest in mainstream band", is now sold on major e-commerce platforms, will the price of 239 yuan make you excited? Let's take a look at this experience report!

At first glance, I think the size of Moto Moto Moto Moto Moto Moto Moto Moto Moto Moto M1 is basically the same as the usual route, but Moto can spend a lot of attention on the appearance design (otherwise, how can it deserve the reputation of industrial design leader).

Moluccas M1 chooses a simple white appearance, and under the light, the diamond pattern covering the surface appears to complement each other (according to the official instructions, the diamond pattern is not only a decorative texture, but also has the function of cooling, which is beautiful and practical, not a vase).

The classic moto wing shaped logo is prominently highlighted in the center of the board. This logo is not just a simple logo of ordinary repression technology, but also has the function of indicator light. The light of the indicator light is relatively soft, and even if it is placed in the room at night, it will not feel dazzling, Consumers can indicate the current status of the router through the color and flashing status of the signal light (orange is always on, indicating that the system is starting; orange is flashing, indicating that the system is upgrading; white is always on, indicating that the router is operating normally; white is flashing, indicating that the system is abnormal.) This semi hidden indicator light also greatly improves the recognition and appearance of the route.

The four antennas responsible for transmitting signals are in discrete overall shape, showing arc arch bridge on both sides and behind the fuselage (it is said that this antenna design is conducive to better transmission of signals, so that signals can better cover every corner of the house, so that every position at home can be free from the impact of signals at any time).

It is probably the layout design of the route and the design of the arc fuselage that make the Molecule M1 look not ordinary square and rigid, but a little modern and simple without losing fashion. It should not feel out of place in any corner of every young family.

Considering the different locations and ways of placing routes for everyone, Molayou M1 is also considerate to design that the four antennas can be adjusted at 45 °, 90 ° and 180 ° respectively to meet the needs of each family. It can be easily handled when it is hung on the wall or placed on the desk, so that it can better adjust the signal and good output when it is used.

Although with the increasing use of WiFi, there is less and less demand for ordinary network cables to connect to the network, but there is no shortage of interfaces for daily use. The interface of M-route M1 is not rich and diverse, but at least it is practical.

Behind the route, there are regular blue and white interfaces (one 10/100MbpsRJ45 wan interface, four 10/100MbpsRJ45 lan interfaces). The design should meet your general needs. (In fact, in my opinion, the blue chrysanthemum has been poked all the time, and now the rest of the world is relatively idle, so I am embarrassed to suddenly stain it.) The power interface and the system factory reset button are respectively placed on the left and right sides of the network cable interface.

In terms of power interface, the consistent big round port is used, which is basically the same as most other routing power supplies. This sometimes saves some unnecessary trouble. As always, the reset button can only be pressed with a toothpick. (To be honest, I think that although it is conventional, I think this design will bring a little inconvenience at ordinary times. When I really need to reset it, I have to find something to poke it. Although it can effectively prevent most of the accidental touch, it must be so small.)

In terms of power supply configuration, the color of the routing itself is simple and practical, and the length of the power cord can also meet the daily needs

In terms of the bottom panel design (that is, the skirt bottom) of Mo Route M1, in order to allow the route to get proper heat dissipation during long hours of work, we have adopted a long ventilation grid and the arch design of the route itself to better ensure that the route can transmit stable signals for everyone even in the hot summer. (However, when using it, please pay attention not to put the route on the soft blanket, which will hinder the heat dissipation of the air outlet.)

In addition to the large-area heat sink, you can also see the conspicuous label paper. The label paper is full of some basic routing information, focusing on the two-dimensional code. You can download apps through this QR code to more conveniently manage the routing M1, which is also a unique tag in the intelligent era.

In general, Mo Route M1 can also be regarded as a route that pays attention to appearance (appearance is very important in this age of face). The appearance design has its own characteristics, and it has a certain degree of appearance recognition among the masses, so that everyone has a different choice among many box route designs, which can be regarded as a small fresh taste. The Moluccino M1, which won the hand of this small knitting, is a white color match. However, Moluccino M1 also provides four different colors for consumers to choose, such as black, white, gold, and blue. This gives friends who pay attention to the appearance of the product an extra choice, which better meets the needs of consumers. However, due to the arched arc design of the route fuselage, it is generally necessary to pay attention to the thickness of the route box when it is vertically placed on the wall (there must be some gains and losses, and special efforts must be made), otherwise, if it cannot be placed, it may affect the mood of use.

The design of the appearance has its highlights and practical aspects, but it also has a relatively small disadvantage, which is the so-called "you can't have it both ways".

It just happens that the author has a millet route 3! It is specially intended to compare the appearance and comment on some of the pain points in the use of the two! First of all, the two routes are designed in pure white. However, compared with Xiaomi Route 3, Mo Route M1 has more color models. From this point of view, it seems that both of them are about the same size. In fact, Mo Route M1 has a smaller surface area. Considering that both routes are not suspended, Mo Route M1 will be better when placed horizontally! More space saving.

In terms of thickness, Xiaomi Route 3 is slightly better than Mo Route M1, which is 2.5 times thinner than Mo Route M1. Since this is the first intelligent routing model of moto, I believe it will be better and better in future models.

The back heat dissipation holes of both are made very forcefully, and basically cover the whole rear cover. Since the back of the motorcycle route M1 adopts the arch design, the heat dissipation performance must be better than that of the millet route, but this also takes into account the heat generation performance of both. During the use process, the heat generation of both is not obvious, so we can rest assured of this concern.

The interface has always been the pain point of millet routing. When there are many wired devices, one millet routing 3 is obviously not enough, so we have to buy switches and so on, which also brings troublesome wiring work. But this time, M1 has completely abused Xiaomi Routing 3 in terms of interface, which solves the problem of insufficient interface for wired users! What we need is this effect, especially for users with large rooms and high floors, which can meet their daily needs.

The installation of Motorola M1 is also very convenient. Plug in the power supply, connect the network cable and access 192.168.51.1 through a computer or mobile browser. If it is set for the first time, you also need to input network information and other information. As an intelligent route, M-route M1 can also download APP client through the QR code on the page to achieve a function far beyond controlling home routes.

As an intelligent route, M-route M1 can also download APP client through the QR code on the page to achieve a function far beyond controlling home routes.

The functions of this mobile route M1 are similar to those of other intelligent routes, such as text based Internet settings, wireless settings, parent control, intelligent flow control, and end users. In terms of the allowable experience, the smoothness is better than that of Xiaomi Route 3. There is no screen jam or slow response. Users who have used the Xiaomi routing series can feel this, right?

I believe we are not unfamiliar with the function of parental control. Especially for parents who have children at home, this function is indispensable in order to let children not be too addicted to computers or mobile phones. Through the setting function in Mobile Route M1, we can limit users' Internet time, Internet IP segment, and make sure that at that moment, that person and machine can access the Internet reasonably!

Speaking of the visitor function. Literally, this function can be used to set up a wireless network for visitors, so as to ensure the security of the host's network data and information while also meeting the visitors' Internet needs.

In fact, we can set some non important devices as visitors, such as smart sockets, smart cameras, smart alarms, etc. In this way, these products will not affect the network transmission of the main device. Basically, other visitor devices are watching movies, and your main device will not get stuck when playing games! After using relatives for 2 months, the whole motorcycle route M1 is stable and efficient.

The APP function is actually a web version of the management background, which temporarily does not support plug-in and other USB flash disk expansion data query. Other operations are relatively simple, so we can refer to the above webpage interface!

In order to give readers a better understanding of M1, I have set points A, B, C and D in a 100 square meter house. Through these points, we can test the strength of M1 model, and the building partition is a reinforced concrete structure.

The distance between point A and point C is about 7 meters, and the distance between point A and point B is also about 7 meters. The staircase at point D is more closed than that at point ABC. The following figure is the model strength signal diagram of each point of ABCD. The closer to the C point, the stronger the signal is. The wifi strength is maintained at 4-full grid. I don't think it is necessary to test the download speed and upload speed. For me, a stable router is what I need, while M-route M1 routes are mainly stable and efficient! Even though there is only a 2.4 G wireless network, I can use it with ease. Especially when playing King's Glory, if it was the previous Mi Route 3 or Mi Route mini, I often lost the segment because of the unstable route. I really wanted to buy another one several times, until I used Mo Route M1, I felt much better!

Summary: After many days of use, the author is a little bit fond of Moro Route M1. First, I like its simplicity. Its simple appearance matches its brand value. The whole Motorola M1 gives me a sense of high-end fashion! Secondly, on the deep technical level, Moro Route M1 has the 4 * 4MIMO architecture technology and has the power of four data streams in a real sense. With a 200M receiving and transmitting speed and four antennas working at the same time, Moro Route M1 can achieve an outstanding 800M speed in the market and shine in a 2.4G network! Combined with 256QAM modulation technology, Moro Route M1 has stronger signal coverage and wall penetration performance! It can not only meet the needs of 80-120 square meters of residents, but also win the office personnel who need efficient transmission. Another reason why I eliminated Huawei and Xiaomi routing series is that the Moro M1 is stable enough! This is a pain point of intelligent routing! It is also the only standard for me to choose a route!

Of course, M-route M1 has both advantages and disadvantages. A router that is too civilian may have less flavor in the system experience. If you are a“ Love to play computer games ”The routing users of Mo Route M1 may not meet you! But if you are an old driver who seeks truth from facts and is stable and never overturns, Molayou M1 will definitely satisfy your taste! Therefore, I recommend this motorcycle routing M1 to ordinary home users. The simple and stable point is its highlight!
