00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:15,560
so today guys I have a bit of a project and that is the unboxing of what may be

2
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:20,160
the lightest box that I have unboxed

3
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:22,480
today this is the lynus AE 2500 dualband

4
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:28,679
Wireless N USB adapter so what is dualband good for that is a question

5
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:30,840
that I have actually never been asked um

6
00:00:28,679 --> 00:00:35,440
in any way shape or form but I'm going to answer it anyway because that is a

7
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:40,000
question that I actually had at one point in time before I knew what dual

8
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:44,760
band was good for so dual band can mean a couple of different things so there's

9
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:47,320
dual band which means 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz

10
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:52,120
this router or adapter sort of you know one or the other can operate either on

11
00:00:50,199 --> 00:00:55,879
this higher frequency or on this lower frequency and that is to get away from

12
00:00:53,840 --> 00:01:00,079
interference of other devices that operate on those frequencies such as say

13
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:04,080
for example in the case of 2.4 gigahertz cordless phones for example that's an

14
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:09,360
example for you but there's also concurrent dual

15
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:14,000
band concurrent dual band allows you to use both of those frequencies at the

16
00:01:11,479 --> 00:01:19,799
same time in order to transfer more data so this isn't concurrent dual band this

17
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:22,799
is dual band so 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz dual

18
00:01:19,799 --> 00:01:24,960
band 300 megabit per second so that is

19
00:01:22,799 --> 00:01:30,520
how many lanes of data transfer there are on a given band not that you're

20
00:01:27,479 --> 00:01:32,000
actually using more bands okay and then

21
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:36,040
we've got Superior range Advanced security and easy setup so easy setup is

22
00:01:33,759 --> 00:01:40,799
something I've pretty much come to expect from Cisco linkis products at

23
00:01:38,759 --> 00:01:44,439
this time uh we did set up their range extender a little while ago and that was

24
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:47,079
very easy this one comes with a wireless adapter setup CD you know what I'm going

25
00:01:45,759 --> 00:01:51,600
to go ahead and I'm going to say don't throw this away especially if you're not

26
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:56,360
an advanced user this is actually pretty handy and does make setting up the

27
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:58,000
device very very simple so you're still

28
00:01:56,360 --> 00:02:03,439
going to want to grab the latest drivers from the linkis website but um just for

29
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:08,640
the for the initial setup this is not a bad way to go so

30
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:14,440
this is the ae2500 which

31
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:17,879
includes run CD first a

32
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,879
warning and an

33
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:27,640
adapter and it's a USB network

34
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:29,200
adapter made by lynis and or Cisco

35
00:02:27,640 --> 00:02:35,040
depending on how you prefer to look at it you you know what I don't know what

36
00:02:31,519 --> 00:02:37,239
else to tell you guys here because it is

37
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:42,680
a USB wireless adapter and it is aha maybe we'll talk

38
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:46,760
about this hold on where are they I'm sure I have them somewhere wait for it

39
00:02:44,239 --> 00:02:53,159
come with me come with me if you want to ah here we go

40
00:02:50,560 --> 00:03:00,319
aha it is designed in a matching

41
00:02:55,920 --> 00:03:04,360
style to go with and match your other

42
00:03:00,319 --> 00:03:06,720
link Cy by Cisco routers and products

43
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:11,440
that are wireless and look good with them and have a similar finish so over

44
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:18,280
here see check this out see how we have a similar finish on our USB adapter as

45
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:21,440
we have on our Cisco

46
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:23,799
router so this is the e4200 which is

47
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:29,360
their high-end dualband 450 megabit router this is not uh this is not 450

48
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:34,239
megabit but it is dual band but if I recall correctly that guy is concurrent

49
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:36,400
so hold on a second nope just dual band not

50
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:42,879
concurrent yeah simultaneous okay so yeah that one is concurrent this one is

51
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:46,959
not concurrent thank you for checking out my unboxing of the AE 2500 don't
