today I have kind of a neat product to unbox this is the trenet Tew 684 UB uh
yeah it doesn't have a sexy name or anything but what's cool about this
device is that it is the first USB 450
mbit per second dualband Wireless N USB adapter so yes it is a USB 450 mbit per
second wireless device so I'm going to go ahead and open this little guy up
here comes in a very small box I mean it's a USB device so it
couldn't be couldn't be that large right I mean it could be but wouldn't
make much sense all right here we go so here's what trenet has to say about 450
megabit per second dual band it is better than 450 megabit it is better
than 300 megabit dual band better than 300 megabit and speed as well as 150
megabit per second so it is the best okay got
it right here we see what the device
looks like but we're going to see that when we open it up here we see how to use it so you connect it to the
computer okay and then it is wirelessly
connected to your router and they recommend the Tew 691 grr which I happen
to have one of here we go so I have a
whole Fleet of trend net 450 megabit per second devices so you can bet there will
be a tech tips up coming on that shortly all right so there they show the other
devices so the 690 AP is the one that I don't have but that's fine cuz the 690
AP is just an AP version of the 691 gr
which is the full router so the more interesting product anyway so here it is
it actually looks like a little tiny version of the trend net uh Tew 687 GA
so the ga is the gaming adapter which is uh uses a gigabit Ethernet interface
rather than a usb3 interface and then actually here I'll show it to you so
there's the 687 GA so you can see the size difference and I'll do the
obligatory iPhone size comparison as
well just so you guys can see how big this thing is so it's not super large it
could easily be carried if you were going to travel and you were going to bring this guy with you okay so it uses
micro hold on hold on I can never remember the USB 3 cable
standards ah oh right this is USB 2 so
it just uses a b cable a mini B There we go good I know the USB 2 ones there you
have it so then it plugs in Via a normal
USB 2.0 Port so bear in mind of course
guys that USB 2 oh okay USB 2 is
480 megabit per second as I recall so
what that means is that with this one device you can pretty much uh saturate
your USB 2 bus but I mean I wouldn't
worry too much about that because you're not going to be using the full thorough
put of this device very often that's only when you're transferring large
files at a time so you can see it's got a one button setup button up here
WPS there you can see that now on the bottom it has the Mac Address as well as
the serial number on the back there's your USB and it pretty much looks like
this there's not much more to say so there's a WPS light and activity light
as well as a power light on the front why I'm going to go ahead and plug that
in I can show you what the indicator lights look like so I'm just going to
come over here plug this into my test computer and hopefully there you go so
that's what those lights are going to look like please Focus Mr camera there
