00:00:07.279 --> 00:00:12.480
welcome to my unboxing and first look at a router that's

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

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

00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:25.920
buffalo happens to be a japanese company okay moving right along though this is

00:00:23.439 --> 00:00:31.599
the wzr 600dhp this is a high power so they're going

00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:35.360
for extra well power for enhanced signal strength and performance dual band

00:00:33.360 --> 00:00:39.440
simultaneous 300 plus 300 megabit per second which honestly is as fast as any

00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:43.840
of your devices at this point anyway uh gigabit Ethernet okay for maximum wired

00:00:41.680 --> 00:00:46.559
speed multi-platform blah blah blah right there bam actually there's a

00:00:45.440 --> 00:00:52.399
better logo double bam dd wrt so this router is a

00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:55.120
high powered writer router that is hold on

00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:58.719
slick was complaining his camera work isn't good enough to compensate for the

00:00:56.879 --> 00:01:03.520
the reflective wrapping so there you go dd wrt logo it also is ready for

00:01:01.120 --> 00:01:07.920
bittorrent wi-fi protected setup wi-fi and whatever that is so ddwrt is a

00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:12.320
third-party firmware that allows you to unlock additional functionality and

00:01:09.680 --> 00:01:16.960
features on what would otherwise be a stock router

00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:20.560
so by calling out the ddw artinis of this router they have actually

00:01:18.240 --> 00:01:24.560
effectively said look this is compatible with what is widely regarded to be the

00:01:22.240 --> 00:01:30.560
best third party firmware out there it has these high-powered sort of features

00:01:27.759 --> 00:01:34.720
that are cute and adorable and it's not that expensive so what what

00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:39.280
else is there to really say uh dual bands this okay this was their ac router

00:01:36.960 --> 00:01:43.600
so this it falls below an ac router in terms of the performance but

00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:48.159
is and and a little bit behind sort of the 450 megabit per second stuff on

00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:52.000
wireless n but honestly you'd never really notice the difference

00:01:49.759 --> 00:01:57.280
between wireless and 300 and 450 on for example your ipad because your your ipad

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

00:01:59.200 --> 00:02:06.000
for ac and skip 450 entirely because this is just my personal opinion so if i

00:02:04.399 --> 00:02:12.000
was looking for something very customizable that again is extremely

00:02:09.039 --> 00:02:16.480
cute you know japanese this might be what i go for so i'm going

00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:19.840
to get this assembled and de-rapified and we'll be back in a moment

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

00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:26.319
stand there you go

00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:36.519
okay maybe i didn't do it right give me a sec uh-huh

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

00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:52.800
so i guess that's probably just a qos feature diagnostic router

00:02:50.879 --> 00:02:56.800
these are the two bands 2.4 gigahertz and 5 gigahertz power

00:02:55.280 --> 00:03:01.680
yes uh there's your wi-fi protected setup

00:02:59.200 --> 00:03:05.200
okay cool stuff oh shoot i forgot i was trying to avoid touching the shiny set

00:03:03.440 --> 00:03:08.560
oh that's not bad that's actually surprisingly uh can you

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

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

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

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

00:03:24.640 --> 00:03:29.599
stuff yeah it gets micro scratches when you wipe it but realistically you should

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

00:03:32.720 --> 00:03:38.159
about it then oh that came off again

00:03:36.480 --> 00:03:43.760
okay the point of this is the firmware and the power guys um moving right along

00:03:40.720 --> 00:03:46.480
you can turn the router on off or auto

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

00:03:48.319 --> 00:03:54.239
switch for turning that off very handy okay usb eject

00:03:52.879 --> 00:04:00.080
usb port for storage as well as four gigabit ports your wan

00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:05.920
port and your power in in terms of accessories we've got buffalo's

00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:07.920
characteristic flat Ethernet cable

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

00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:17.600
it comes on the wrapper with you know the ssid as well as the key

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

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

00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:31.600
how to use google but it's not always convenient ah screws to hold this on

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

00:04:33.440 --> 00:04:40.880
doesn't stay on screws done deal all right and

00:04:39.120 --> 00:04:45.040
no way they actually

00:04:43.360 --> 00:04:48.160
huh so there's like different uh there's

00:04:46.479 --> 00:04:52.560
different feature checklists depending on the uh whether you use the stock

00:04:49.840 --> 00:04:55.600
firmware or the ddwrt firmware there's a setup guide as well as a warranty

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

00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:06.240
don't forget to subscribe flying tech tips for unboxings reviews and other computer videos

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

00:05:11.280 --> 00:05:16.199
oriented like this you can hold it like this part you'll be like
