00:00:08.480 --> 00:00:17.039
today I have a router to unbox this is a zil wireless n router it is the nbg

00:00:15.160 --> 00:00:21.680
4615 and one of the things that's actually really cool about it right off

00:00:18.680 --> 00:00:25.560
the bat is the fact that it includes not

00:00:21.680 --> 00:00:27.560
one but two built-in USB ports so with

00:00:25.560 --> 00:00:32.840
that in mind let's go ahead and do the unboxing portion of this video right

00:00:30.240 --> 00:00:36.559
away so that I can show you the product itself because that is important showing

00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:42.079
you the product because if I did an unboxing where I don't show you the product it would be over right about now

00:00:40.360 --> 00:00:49.079
first of all we have a warranty card thank you for purchasing and our warranty

00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:52.559
is oh oh it opens up that helps a lot

00:00:49.079 --> 00:00:52.559
okay so it looks like it

00:00:53.359 --> 00:00:58.840
is I don't know how long it is okay either way you can fill it out with your

00:00:57.480 --> 00:01:03.120
model number and serial number and date of search purchase okay we have a quick start guide

00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:10.280
although you're probably not going to use this too much because it does include besides the expert configuration

00:01:07.080 --> 00:01:12.600
mode also an easy configuration mode so

00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:19.119
that should help for the non-technical Le Savvy customers to get this baby set

00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:20.640
up you also have support for WPS so

00:01:19.119 --> 00:01:24.960
that's where you just press the button on the router press the button on the

00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:29.920
adapter and the secure connection is done automatically we have a utility

00:01:28.159 --> 00:01:33.520
users guide quick start guide Acrobat reader and product registration disc

00:01:32.320 --> 00:01:39.960
actually there's some useful stuff on there you might not want to throw that disc away just yet we have the router

00:01:37.240 --> 00:01:44.399
itself which is fairly small this I like to see I'm kind of it's getting tiresome

00:01:42.240 --> 00:01:49.119
seeing like huge routers that are like trying to be a fashion statement so this

00:01:46.320 --> 00:01:52.880
is just a plain glossy white finish on the top of the router itself and then

00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:56.640
you have LEDs indicating all the different stuff that it does so you got

00:01:54.520 --> 00:02:03.840
your power LED you've got your four Lan LEDs your one W LED your wireless LED

00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:05.119
and then LEDs for the two USB ports you

00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:11.840
know what more on the router in a moment let's show you all the other things it comes with next we have a power adapter

00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:17.440
which looks like that we have an Ethernet cable which is

00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:19.760
yellow see that's just a little bit

00:02:17.440 --> 00:02:23.480
different you know it's like this one comes with a yellow Ethernet cable

00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:27.959
everyone else comes with a blue or a black Ethernet cable well these got

00:02:25.959 --> 00:02:32.879
going to break the mole yellow Ethernet cable also instead of being a lame 3ft

00:02:30.959 --> 00:02:36.200
Ethernet cable that some of some routers come with this is actually a 6ft cable

00:02:35.160 --> 00:02:43.680
so there you have it bull plated connectors too all right

00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:45.480
next we have two antennas not one but

00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:48.720
two okay I'm not going to try and get those out the packaging right now but I

00:02:47.200 --> 00:02:53.519
will go like this okay and then finally we have the

00:02:51.800 --> 00:03:01.319
router itself so let's show you the overall physical layout of the nbg

00:02:58.400 --> 00:03:06.280
4615 so on the the sides you see we have our two USB ports so that's actually I

00:03:04.440 --> 00:03:10.640
mean okay yes they call it out on the front of the box and you know look it's

00:03:08.799 --> 00:03:15.080
a net USB port but that's actually a really cool feature because not only can

00:03:12.720 --> 00:03:19.280
you use it to access your printer over the network you can also plug in a mass

00:03:17.239 --> 00:03:23.640
storage device such as a USB drive or an external hard drive at the same time so

00:03:21.920 --> 00:03:28.239
I haven't actually seen any other consumer router in this kind of a price

00:03:25.599 --> 00:03:31.599
point range that does offer that feature what else do they have to say for

00:03:29.439 --> 00:03:35.319
themselves here Wi-Fi compliant with 802 n and backwards compatible with B and G

00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:40.680
hey that might have something to do with the name of the router the

00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:45.080
nbg okay uh next we have wireless scheduling for energy saving oh that's

00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:49.200
actually kind of cool too my router at home doesn't have that so you can turn

00:03:47.239 --> 00:03:52.040
off the I mean that's never mind energy saving I mean yeah it's good for energy

00:03:50.680 --> 00:03:57.360
saving too but you can turn off the antenna during hours of the day when you

00:03:55.360 --> 00:04:01.920
don't want it on like at night for example um next we've got Wi-Fi

00:04:00.640 --> 00:04:07.200
protected setup talked about that already six level neighbor-friendly

00:04:04.360 --> 00:04:12.079
Wireless output power control that's actually cool too so that's a way that

00:04:09.480 --> 00:04:17.320
you can actually adjust the signal strength of the wireless antenna well

00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:22.800
not the antenna but the actual uh router itself in order to keep it from being

00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:27.000
too accessible so if you live in an apartment or a condo for example you can

00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:31.199
turn it down in six different incremental steps to a level that allows

00:04:29.360 --> 00:04:36.160
access throughout your entire living space but doesn't necessarily punch

00:04:33.520 --> 00:04:40.400
through two sets of walls and go to the people two condos over who managed to

00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:46.160
Guess that your wireless password was your pet's name

00:04:42.919 --> 00:04:49.479
okay next en enhanced security with WP

00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:52.800
WPA WPA 2 and a firewall that's all

00:04:49.479 --> 00:04:55.000
pretty much standard fair and let me see

00:04:52.800 --> 00:05:00.000
what else they have to say about this particular guy right here I think that's

00:04:57.560 --> 00:05:04.440
pretty much it uh oh it has a game engine feature evidently okay so you can

00:05:02.080 --> 00:05:07.960
turn that on to optimize it for games you can easily prioritize your network

00:05:06.080 --> 00:05:12.440
traffic with quality of service so you can set different things to lower or

00:05:10.039 --> 00:05:16.600
higher priorities so for example if your house is not run by me the gaming thing

00:05:15.039 --> 00:05:20.840
might be at the bottom but if it is run by me that might be at the top in order

00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:24.720
to maximize your well not maximize your pings minimize your pings maximize your

00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:30.560
gaming experience on the back of the unit itself we have our two antenna

00:05:27.479 --> 00:05:33.199
ports are convenient onoff physical

00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:39.600
switch for the wireless network we have our WPS button as well as a reset button

00:05:37.720 --> 00:05:45.280
recessed into a little Port down there use a needle to get at that okay we have

00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:47.960
four Lan ports and we have one Wan Port

00:05:45.280 --> 00:05:52.840
our DC power in as well as a complete onoff switch for the router unit itself

00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:56.600
and finally another antenna Port so thank you for checking out my unboxing

00:05:54.240 --> 00:06:00.080
of the nvg 4615 don't forget to subscribe to Linus techtips for more

00:05:58.000 --> 00:06:04.880
unboxings reviews and other computer videos these are gigabit ports wow this

00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:09.000
is actually a tremendous value for the price point that it's at gigabit

00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:12.880
Ethernet ports Wireless N there you have it now I'm actually done
