00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:15,280
welcome to my unboxing of the Cisco small business rv220w this is a wireless

2
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:20,519
end network security firewall which basically means that it is a highly

3
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:26,920
secure and high performance High reliability it has a lifetime warranty

4
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:28,519
okay router with a firewall for small

5
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:32,640
business so why don't we go ahead and have a look at what's included with it first first and then we'll talk about it

6
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:37,879
a little more and maybe do some quick comparisons to its little little brother

7
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:40,920
the rv10 W so the first thing we find is

8
00:00:37,879 --> 00:00:42,960
a read this first disc you might want to

9
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:46,760
read that first okay next we have a quick start

10
00:00:44,399 --> 00:00:53,039
guide shows you how to mount it to the wall and plug some cables into it these

11
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:55,920
are all good things next we have a g the

12
00:00:53,039 --> 00:01:02,280
deage rapid so that would be in French next we have the firewall unit itself

13
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:05,239
I'm going to go ahead and pull that out for now and then we'll see what other

14
00:01:03,879 --> 00:01:09,159
accessories we can find in the eco-friendly packaging by the way very

15
00:01:07,439 --> 00:01:14,000
nice appreciate that always helps when everyone's doing

16
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:21,200
their part to save the environment and I mean this actually is

17
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:24,040
um often times more expensive to produce

18
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:28,840
than a foam based insert because someone has to actually fold this believe it or

19
00:01:25,759 --> 00:01:30,520
not so uh so yeah getting the dyes made

20
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:35,720
up for uh for the packaging for something like this is not uh not cheap

21
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:41,680
it does cost money to be eco-friendly this thing feels like a tank holy smokes

22
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:45,840
all right so the rv220w let's have a look at the unit itself before we talk

23
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:49,560
about what makes it special so I'm going to throw these antennas on here on the

24
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:54,600
back comes with two antennas these are user replaceable so you could swap them

25
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:56,280
out for other antennas should you desire

26
00:01:54,600 --> 00:02:02,600
okay so the front of the unit here we have a power LED we have a diagnostic we

27
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:06,600
have a demilitarized zone indicator we have a wireless indicator we've also got

28
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:12,120
indicators for the speed of the various land ports so these go up to gigabit and

29
00:02:09,679 --> 00:02:16,000
the W Port is also gigabit what part of what makes this guy special is it is

30
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:21,160
capable according to Cisco's spec of delivering up to 800 megabit per second

31
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:24,680
thorough put between the W and the landan ports so what that means is you

32
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:30,760
could have an internet connection that is almost gigabit down and you would be

33
00:02:27,640 --> 00:02:32,959
able to fully almost fully utilize it

34
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:36,920
using a router such as this one we've got some ventilation holes on this side

35
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:41,120
we've got some ventilation holes on the other side here on the bottom we find

36
00:02:38,640 --> 00:02:45,200
some rubber non-slip feet as well as options to mount it on the wall either

37
00:02:42,879 --> 00:02:50,239
this way or this way whatever you should desire and then on the back we find a

38
00:02:47,599 --> 00:02:53,159
power switch our power input which did I not even show you the power adapter and

39
00:02:51,720 --> 00:03:00,400
the Ethernet cable it comes with sorry about that guys there they are our four Lan ports so as I mentioned

40
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:04,760
before gigabit and our gigabit Lan port as well as a hard reset button now this

41
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:12,280
guy also has 802.11 uh 2.4 GHz 5 GHz dual band

42
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:14,080
wireless n so you can obviously use it

43
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:19,440
for wireless although the the performance you're going to get out of this is going to be predominantly wired

44
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:23,480
because it is a gigabit router but if you are using Wireless in your office it

45
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:26,599
can be handy to have that option as well and then let's talk a little bit about

46
00:03:24,959 --> 00:03:31,640
some of the other features that it has that make it

47
00:03:28,519 --> 00:03:32,959
neat so so the rv220w because it's for

48
00:03:31,640 --> 00:03:37,680
business and every business needs reliability is all about security and

49
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:41,720
reliability you do not want downtime so between the Cisco Forum where which is

50
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:46,519
an online support Community for small businesses to come together and talk to

51
00:03:44,319 --> 00:03:50,000
other Cisco customers and partners uh you can get support that way you also

52
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:54,680
have support directly from Cisco on a product like this and compared to its

53
00:03:52,079 --> 00:03:59,840
little brother you have the same security features including hybrid VPN

54
00:03:56,959 --> 00:04:06,239
with SSL and IP set capabilities but more so so for example where the rv110w

55
00:04:03,239 --> 00:04:07,799
supports only five IP set connections

56
00:04:06,239 --> 00:04:15,280
this little guy well little guy shouldn't really say it's a little guy it weighs like a couple pounds actually

57
00:04:10,879 --> 00:04:18,040
supports 25 connections and it also

58
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:22,400
has um as I mentioned before a limited lifetime warranty whereas its little

59
00:04:20,519 --> 00:04:26,040
brother at about a third of the price only has a 3-year warranty and I

60
00:04:24,479 --> 00:04:29,759
shouldn't really say only because most consumer routers only come with oneyear

61
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:34,039
warranties so thank you for checking out out my first look at the rv220w don't
