1 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:14,240 Welcome to another unboxing. This is the Zeil media router and I don't think 2 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:21,279 that's the whole name of it. So, we're going to call go with their proper name, which is the 3 00:00:18,119 --> 00:00:24,480 NBG5715. It is blazingly fast. It has 4 00:00:21,279 --> 00:00:26,320 concurrent dualband wireless N 450 5 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:30,400 megabit per second which to my understanding is actually a first with 6 00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:35,360 this particular router. So you can simultaneously stream HD movies, play 7 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:36,719 online games, and web surf. Okay, that's 8 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:41,600 pretty much part of the course for a wireless router. I should certainly hope you can do all those things. Net USB 9 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:47,120 allows you to share printers and storage wirelessly, which is very cool. All 10 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:48,719 right, gigabit, net USB, 2.4 and 5 GHz. 11 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:55,199 Okay, we've got all of that going on. Let's see what they've got to say for themselves on the back. So, uh, beam 12 00:00:52,239 --> 00:00:58,879 forming supports ex support extends effective wireless coverage. Okay. 13 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:04,320 Quality of service enhances gaming and multimedia streaming. Okay. And five 14 00:01:01,199 --> 00:01:05,920 IPSecVPN tunnels secure data transfer. 15 00:01:04,320 --> 00:01:10,479 Fascinating. So, that's something that I haven't seen as a called out spec on a 16 00:01:08,159 --> 00:01:15,200 consumer level router um, ever. So, there you are. Wireless 17 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:19,119 scheduling allows energy savings. So you can turn off your wireless when you're, 18 00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:22,799 you know, at home but sleeping, for example, or when you don't want your 19 00:01:21,119 --> 00:01:26,960 kids surfing the net at 4 in the morning or whatever the case may be. So let's go 20 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:31,200 ahead and pull this guy open and have a look at what we've got inside the box. 21 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:36,799 So the first thing is a declaration of conformity, which I'm not particularly 22 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:40,880 interested in. Okay, next we have a utility, users guide, quick start guide, 23 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:45,840 Acrobat Reader, and project product registration CD. 24 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:49,840 Next, we have a warranty card. So, let's see how long the warranty is. Uh, we 25 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:52,880 take great pride in our quality, value, and performance and believe this product 26 00:01:51,119 --> 00:01:57,040 should offer you trouble-free operation throughout its 27 00:01:54,119 --> 00:02:02,159 lifetime. And it doesn't actually say how long the lifetime should 28 00:01:59,159 --> 00:02:03,640 be. Fascinating. For further 29 00:02:02,159 --> 00:02:06,719 information, visit zel.com/warranty. So, you can go ahead 30 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:10,000 and do that if you care that much. Hardware installation. So, this is 31 00:02:08,399 --> 00:02:13,280 apparently a quick start guide. Uh, yes, it says quick start guide at the top. So 32 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:19,599 they show you how to put the antennas on, how to plug in the wan lan wan lan 33 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:21,440 wan lawn, I don't know DC in, how to 34 00:02:19,599 --> 00:02:26,160 plug in the power, okay, how to plug in USB to either a printer or in some cases 35 00:02:24,239 --> 00:02:30,360 a storage device if you want to go ahead and have a network store device uh which 36 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:34,239 is just a USB not powered but it has a USB 37 00:02:32,959 --> 00:02:39,360 interface to your router and then you can use that as a network share. Okay, 38 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:43,599 we have a WPS setup. How to do that? All right. Wow, this thing is 39 00:02:41,319 --> 00:02:47,040 huge. This is one of the bigger routers that I've seen in quite a while. So, 40 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:49,800 let's go ahead and I'll take the router out, but we're not going to look closely 41 00:02:48,319 --> 00:02:56,519 at that just yet. So, let's pull out all of the 42 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:58,879 included accessories and whatnots 43 00:02:56,519 --> 00:03:02,879 first. By the way, we have a trial cameraman here today. So, uh you know, 44 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:07,640 feel free to leave your comments on the uh on the YouTube comments. Let me know 45 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:10,319 what you think. you know, good, 46 00:03:07,640 --> 00:03:13,280 terrible, adequate. All right, we've got three included antennas. So, I'm going 47 00:03:11,920 --> 00:03:20,720 to go ahead and actually I'm not going to put those on yet because I'm going to take the plastic layer off first. This 48 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:22,480 has kind of a neat neat look to it. I 49 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:27,440 mean, I' I've never really believed that the router should be like a a fashion 50 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:30,959 statement, but if it has to not if it, you know, has to not look stupid or you 51 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:33,599 have to see it, then it might as well, you know, look kind of look kind of 52 00:03:32,239 --> 00:03:38,560 different. So, there you go. It has kind of a wavy finish to it. The insides are 53 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:42,080 kind of matte and then the top is sort of glossy. Actually, this is glossy, 54 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:47,440 too. Let's see how fingerprint resistant it is. Actually, that's not bad. So, 55 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:51,440 it's got a bit of sort of smearage going on. But the good news, or bad news, I 56 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:55,760 don't know. I'm about to find out, is that it comes off really easily and doesn't scratch too easily. Because a 57 00:03:54,239 --> 00:03:59,920 lot of the time these glossy finishes, especially on routers, I had one router 58 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:03,360 that had a black glossy finish on it and literally you went like this and it was 59 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:10,200 like the whole thing was just scratched up just from your fingers. Okay, so 60 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:12,239 we've got uh that must be 61 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:15,599 WPS. Wow, there's a bunch of different stuff. Okay, so you can turn the lights 62 00:04:13,599 --> 00:04:21,519 on and off. You can turn the wireless on and off. So that it's a nice dedicated 63 00:04:18,239 --> 00:04:24,400 button to have there. Okay, we've got 64 00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:26,960 our USB ports. So, two of those. I'm going to You know what? Give me a sec 65 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:31,840 here, guys, cuz I'm going to need a minute to find out what all these buttons do. I don't think I've seen this 66 00:04:29,199 --> 00:04:36,880 many buttons on a consumer router ever. Okay, we figured it out. Here's WPS. 67 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:41,199 This is wireless on. This is light on or light off. On the other side, these 68 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:45,520 probably are prompting it to look for something on the USB port. Okay, we've 69 00:04:43,199 --> 00:04:50,400 got a power switch at the back. DC power in. We have 4 GB LAN ports. And then we 70 00:04:48,479 --> 00:04:53,840 have our WAN port. We've also got a reset switch. So, there's your hard 71 00:04:51,919 --> 00:04:56,800 reset. And I'm just going to go ahead and throw these on. In terms of the 72 00:04:55,360 --> 00:05:02,759 other included accessories, there's not a whole lot. There's just a power adapter, which is just your standard 73 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:05,120 wall wart, as well as a yellow Ethernet 74 00:05:02,759 --> 00:05:08,479 cable. Very styling, of course. Oh, goldplated connectors, too. Look at 75 00:05:06,479 --> 00:05:13,039 that. All right. So, we'll go ahead and throw this on here. I actually don't 76 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:17,039 mind the overall layout of this. It's very unconventional. So, it kind of sits 77 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:21,120 like this on the desk, and it doesn't appear that there is a way to remove the 78 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:25,840 bottom stand. Um, so yeah, so it sits on the desk like 79 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:30,560 that and then all of the cables plug in from the back. So thank you for checking 80 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:34,080 out this unboxing and first look at the 81 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:35,360 Zeissel NBG 5715 media router.
