00:00:07,279 --> 00:00:12,480
welcome to my unboxing and first look at a router that's

2
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:16,640
far cooler than it at first appears to be but first you look at it and you go oh

3
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:21,279
they took a router and they put ears on it it must have been made in japan

4
00:00:19,199 --> 00:00:25,920
buffalo happens to be a japanese company okay moving right along though this is

5
00:00:23,439 --> 00:00:31,599
the wzr 600dhp this is a high power so they're going

6
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:35,360
for extra well power for enhanced signal strength and performance dual band

7
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:39,440
simultaneous 300 plus 300 megabit per second which honestly is as fast as any

8
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:43,840
of your devices at this point anyway uh gigabit Ethernet okay for maximum wired

9
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:46,559
speed multi-platform blah blah blah right there bam actually there's a

10
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:52,399
better logo double bam dd wrt so this router is a

11
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:55,120
high powered writer router that is hold on

12
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:58,719
slick was complaining his camera work isn't good enough to compensate for the

13
00:00:56,879 --> 00:01:03,520
the reflective wrapping so there you go dd wrt logo it also is ready for

14
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:07,920
bittorrent wi-fi protected setup wi-fi and whatever that is so ddwrt is a

15
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:12,320
third-party firmware that allows you to unlock additional functionality and

16
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:16,960
features on what would otherwise be a stock router

17
00:01:14,159 --> 00:01:20,560
so by calling out the ddw artinis of this router they have actually

18
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:24,560
effectively said look this is compatible with what is widely regarded to be the

19
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:30,560
best third party firmware out there it has these high-powered sort of features

20
00:01:27,759 --> 00:01:34,720
that are cute and adorable and it's not that expensive so what what

21
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:39,280
else is there to really say uh dual bands this okay this was their ac router

22
00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:43,600
so this it falls below an ac router in terms of the performance but

23
00:01:41,439 --> 00:01:48,159
is and and a little bit behind sort of the 450 megabit per second stuff on

24
00:01:45,439 --> 00:01:52,000
wireless n but honestly you'd never really notice the difference

25
00:01:49,759 --> 00:01:57,280
between wireless and 300 and 450 on for example your ipad because your your ipad

26
00:01:54,799 --> 00:02:02,000
doesn't even support 450 and i think a lot of devices are going to get support

27
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:06,000
for ac and skip 450 entirely because this is just my personal opinion so if i

28
00:02:04,399 --> 00:02:12,000
was looking for something very customizable that again is extremely

29
00:02:09,039 --> 00:02:16,480
cute you know japanese this might be what i go for so i'm going

30
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:19,840
to get this assembled and de-rapified and we'll be back in a moment

31
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:26,319
reset buttons located on the bottom of the router there's also a handy indicator for how to install the

32
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,319
stand there you go

33
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:36,519
okay maybe i didn't do it right give me a sec uh-huh

34
00:02:40,640 --> 00:02:47,920
ah there we go okay to install the stand you've also got movie engine on and off

35
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:52,800
so i guess that's probably just a qos feature diagnostic router

36
00:02:50,879 --> 00:02:56,800
these are the two bands 2.4 gigahertz and 5 gigahertz power

37
00:02:55,280 --> 00:03:01,680
yes uh there's your wi-fi protected setup

38
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:05,200
okay cool stuff oh shoot i forgot i was trying to avoid touching the shiny set

39
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:08,560
oh that's not bad that's actually surprisingly uh can you

40
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:15,200
can you tell that the fingerprints aren't that bad on there wow usually i see okay guys i see

41
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:18,640
surfaces like this and then i'm like oh that means i can never ever touch it but

42
00:03:16,879 --> 00:03:21,599
this is this is actually okay now let's see if it gets scratched when i wipe it

43
00:03:20,159 --> 00:03:26,319
off because that's the other that's the other mark of death for uh for shiny

44
00:03:24,640 --> 00:03:29,599
stuff yeah it gets micro scratches when you wipe it but realistically you should

45
00:03:28,239 --> 00:03:34,400
be hiding this under a table somewhere anyway so i guess if you're if you're that fussy

46
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:38,159
about it then oh that came off again

47
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:43,760
okay the point of this is the firmware and the power guys um moving right along

48
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:46,480
you can turn the router on off or auto

49
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:50,720
so that makes this easy to use as just a wireless access point it has a hardware

50
00:03:48,319 --> 00:03:54,239
switch for turning that off very handy okay usb eject

51
00:03:52,879 --> 00:04:00,080
usb port for storage as well as four gigabit ports your wan

52
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:05,920
port and your power in in terms of accessories we've got buffalo's

53
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:07,920
characteristic flat Ethernet cable

54
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:13,360
do do like see that's a heart right there um we've also got a power adapter

55
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:17,600
it comes on the wrapper with you know the ssid as well as the key

56
00:04:16,079 --> 00:04:22,079
that are initially set up as well as the information you need so put this somewhere safe just in case you forget

57
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:25,520
and you don't know how to use google to look it up i mean well no you can know

58
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:31,600
how to use google but it's not always convenient ah screws to hold this on

59
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:35,199
there we go see they thought of this someone at some point was like no no it

60
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:40,880
doesn't stay on screws done deal all right and

61
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:45,040
no way they actually

62
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:48,160
huh so there's like different uh there's

63
00:04:46,479 --> 00:04:52,560
different feature checklists depending on the uh whether you use the stock

64
00:04:49,840 --> 00:04:55,600
firmware or the ddwrt firmware there's a setup guide as well as a warranty

65
00:04:53,919 --> 00:05:00,240
statement thank you for checking out my unboxing and first look at what's actually a pretty cool looking router

66
00:05:00,639 --> 00:05:06,240
don't forget to subscribe flying tech tips for unboxings reviews and other computer videos

67
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:12,639
and it's also a spaceship you can slide this in here and then it's meant to be

68
00:05:11,280 --> 00:05:16,199
oriented like this you can hold it like this part you'll be like
