WEBVTT 00:00:07.799 --> 00:00:13.799 are you filming yes okay 00:00:11.040 --> 00:00:19.560 cool hold on a sec I'm going to open the door first with my 00:00:16.680 --> 00:00:24.279 keys and welcome to the lus tech tip show where we are not going to be 00:00:21.720 --> 00:00:32.160 unboxing four separate routers we are actually going to be doing one router 00:00:28.119 --> 00:00:34.680 this one this is Western digital's 00:00:32.160 --> 00:00:40.039 almost well no this is their Flagship router this is the minet N900 which is 00:00:38.120 --> 00:00:43.399 apparently about effortless entertainment okay that's good that's 00:00:42.039 --> 00:00:49.239 good I know what they mean by that and I will explain but it's a very cryptic thing to put on the front of the Box 00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:53.079 effortless entertainment I I'm putting effort into it already I have to open 00:00:50.800 --> 00:00:57.920 the bag that's not effortless and I'm not entertained at all it's ridiculous 00:00:55.920 --> 00:01:00.920 false advertising bait bait and switch bait and switch that's what customers 00:00:59.480 --> 00:01:07.799 love to say bait and switch whenever something's wrong okay 450 plus 450 00:01:04.600 --> 00:01:10.520 megabit dual B concurrent performance 00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:15.000 which gives you that N900 rating HD dual band router okay got it this is the best 00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:21.960 range out of their lineup features 1 two 3 easy setup full 1080P and it better 7 00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:26.680 GB ports this is cool why hasn't anyone done this the home is so connected now 00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:30.479 why does everyone make you like where did I put it I had a switch here why 00:01:28.840 --> 00:01:34.360 does everyone make you buy there like switch separately and give you only four 00:01:32.240 --> 00:01:38.520 ports on your router thank you Western Digital for providing an adequate number 00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:44.920 of ports on your high performance router uh multid streams and the most important 00:01:41.759 --> 00:01:48.200 thing about this router FastTrack Plus 00:01:44.920 --> 00:01:50.520 so FasTrack plus is basically wd's 00:01:48.200 --> 00:01:57.320 proprietary qos that's quality of service that dynamically analyzes the 00:01:54.520 --> 00:02:02.759 traffic coming in and out of your router looks at it and goes okay 00:02:00.719 --> 00:02:08.399 that traffic is sort of like shaped like this that's probably a game I'm going to 00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:09.800 prioritize that over something else 00:02:08.399 --> 00:02:15.000 that's less important like that's torrent traffic it actually does not 00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:20.599 rely on any manual input from the user it does not rely on any profiles written 00:02:17.760 --> 00:02:26.440 by WD to prioritize certain applications which is the case for the two lower end 00:02:22.920 --> 00:02:28.840 routers the minet 600 and the 750 and it 00:02:26.440 --> 00:02:34.480 also doesn't require any updates to continue to dynamically update itself to 00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:38.440 provide the best quality of service it can without any input from the user 00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:42.200 that's what they mean by effortless and it's not really effortless I mean I had 00:02:40.319 --> 00:02:48.640 to take this thing out of the box and I have to peel the plastic off the 00:02:44.959 --> 00:02:50.200 top it's like a job I mean this is my 00:02:48.640 --> 00:02:55.360 job but you know whatever you guys get the point okay so let's have a look at what WD has to say for themselves more 00:02:53.519 --> 00:03:01.040 access so you can connect ld's mybook live storage to this with up to two USB 00:02:57.519 --> 00:03:03.280 ports One USB 3 Port cool um um for 00:03:01.040 --> 00:03:07.200 remote access with their WD to go and WD Photos applications more control the 00:03:05.519 --> 00:03:12.000 minet dashboard okay so this is just your their branding for controlling your 00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:17.480 router more Simplicity supports UPnP and auto configuration good okay more HTS 00:03:14.760 --> 00:03:20.000 FASTT track plus very good awesome more advanced features okay we've been 00:03:18.760 --> 00:03:27.000 through this parental controls Auto sensing antenna amplifiers right so this one has the best range out of their 00:03:23.440 --> 00:03:28.879 range of routers and you can see that 00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:32.680 they have it positioned as being just like the uberis in every possible way so 00:03:30.959 --> 00:03:37.280 they've all got push button WPS setup IPv6 they are all ready for it and this 00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:41.879 one oh look it's it's a DNA server so you can actually use this as a media 00:03:38.760 --> 00:03:44.200 server on your home network and uh well 00:03:41.879 --> 00:03:47.439 access your media that you store on your WD hard drive that you attach to it 00:03:45.959 --> 00:03:51.519 which is a convenient way for them to sell you more hard drives which I don't 00:03:49.239 --> 00:03:55.599 inherently object to because it makes the product better so why not and it's 00:03:53.480 --> 00:03:59.439 not like they're forcing you to you know it's not like they include a hard drive 00:03:57.280 --> 00:04:04.720 with it and you know sell it to you for more like this one which we'll talk about 00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:08.280 later okay uh right so let's have a look at the physicality of the unit there's 00:04:06.040 --> 00:04:13.400 your power LED your wireless LED your internet LED your WPS LED and your WPS 00:04:11.400 --> 00:04:17.079 button there's your matte finish on the top which has like more of a performance 00:04:15.519 --> 00:04:20.840 pattern on it compared to the other ones which are just solid mat and there's 00:04:18.880 --> 00:04:28.759 your shiny outline okay there's your power button DC in two USB ports 7 GB 00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:30.720 Ethernet ports again Kudos WD way to go 00:04:28.759 --> 00:04:34.919 way to figure out what no one else could that like you know 40 cents of extra 00:04:33.479 --> 00:04:39.120 Ethernet ports might actually make a difference to your customers um there's 00:04:37.560 --> 00:04:43.520 your Wan Port so that's your internet port there is oh it has a cooling fan 00:04:41.240 --> 00:04:47.800 that better be quiet! uh I really hope that's only enabled like out of under 00:04:45.440 --> 00:04:51.199 heavy load there's your reset switch and there's your ventilation holes so this 00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:55.039 looks like an exhaust so as long as you have this down like this or wall mounted 00:04:53.440 --> 00:04:58.479 it does come with flexible mounting options and you shouldn't have any uh 00:04:57.000 --> 00:05:03.320 shouldn't have any trouble with that included accessories in include include 00:05:01.440 --> 00:05:08.160 the inclusion of a technical support and limited warranty guide a start here 00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:12.639 guide with simple steps for people who don't know how to set up a router I do 00:05:10.479 --> 00:05:12.639 you 00:05:14.280 --> 00:05:19.520 know power cable and an Ethernet cable 00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:23.080 thank you for checking out my unboxing and first look at the minet N900 don't 00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:27.520 forget to subscribe to L techtips from
