welcome to my unboxing of a very versatile networking adapter from ASUS
and an impenetrable box it's okay we'll
figure it out that's why I have my trusty debox ifying knife I'm going to
stop calling them unboxings and I'm going to call them debox ifying it won't
be as good of a search keyword but uh I think you guys will sort of you know
support me on this so here's all the stuff that's included bunch of stuff in
there bunch of boxes here it's like a pyramid it goes like that and then
there's like this power thing and then there's like a crot shot which slick is
apparently going for here and uh no I'm
just kidding you weren't going for the crop
shot if you were you'd have succeeded
and I'm not saying it would have been a bad thing okay so what is special about this
three different functions one it can act as a network adapter so the way you'll
do that is you go okay I need Wireless networking you know we're going to do
like real world examples of this as we go so oh I need a wireless adapter so
I'm going to like plug this Ethernet cable in and then I'm going to like oh
yeah I'll plug it in a little bit better than that so it doesn't fall out there we go and I'll plug in the power and
then what you do is you pair it with your
router using WPS and then you plug it in via Ethernet
to something that you need to have wireless network connectivity boom
Ethernet ad or wireless network adapter okay functionality number two is as a
range extender so if you want to use it as a range extender I'm sure there's
some kind of configuration you'll need to do it's there's a quick start guide
so you know what we're not going to get too far into that you follow the
instructions and then you won't need an Ethernet adapter probably once you
finished the set up but you just take the power and the pyramid you go
wherever it is you need a wireless range extender don't forget guys don't place a
wireless range extender on the very outside of your wireless range like if
this is your uh if this is your wireless router right here and it's got a range
of this you put your range extender oh
whatever don't worry about it you put your range extender here as opposed to
like right at the edge where it won't get a very good signal does that make
sense because that way it has a good signal to the router and then it
can extend the range from there okay
functionality number three is if you have an existing uh router that doesn't
have a very good wireless access point you can use this as an access point so
you can add Wireless functionality to a router that doesn't have it just by
plugging this in Via one of the switch
ports on the router and you're done so
maybe this is the kind of thing that you're looking at going okay well I
don't need one of these at all oh it's dual band 450 megabit per second just so
you guys know it's wireless maybe you're looking at it going well I don't need one of those right now but if I ever did
need Wireless anything this is probably
the handiest way to augment my network in whatever way I could possibly need so
these are extremely popular now that I've said what I want to say about it
let's have a look at what ASUS thinks so patented 3point orthogonal antenna and
high power amplifier for en signal strength cool easy user interface Ultra
fast gigabit e oh neat so it has gigabit Ethernet so you can actually take
advantage of that 450 megabit per second fast wireless network strong 2. so dual
band okay WPS one button setup cool cool gab Ethernet port powerful okay we've
covered this already and onto the back so they've got aha Universal range
extender access point and Ethernet
adapter so very very very cool patented
antenna design for best signal 5 GHz signal for like okay so this is a lot of
repetition on this uh box here but I think we've pretty much covered it so
