Test: TRENDnet AC1750 Dual Band Wirelees Router

Konklusion

Jeg har haft denne router som min primære i en lille måneds tid. I den tid har jeg haft koblet alt på routeren som har haft en trådløs forbindelse, lige fra bærbare, smartphones, tablets mv. Den har kørt klippe stabilt igennem hele perioden uden udfald, der er ingen tvivl om at 5GHz er vejen frem. Og efter testen her må jeg stærkt erkende, at jeg skal ud og have en 5GHz router.
 

Innovation/Teknologi - 4
TRENDnet har formået med deres AC1750 router at skabe et alsidigt produkt. I flæng kan nævnes: 5GHz, USB fileshare port til både eksterne harddiske eller en USB printer og mulighed for oprettelse af gæstenetværk. Vi lander på en 4’er

Bundle/Tilbehør - 3
Her er absolut det mest nødvendige, men behøver man mere?

Design - 3
Designet er som sådan okay, men indtrykket ødelægges dog af at man har valgt at benytte en grå farve som omkranser hele routeren.
I min optik ville det have givet det sidste pif, hvis produktet var holdt i helt sort. Og det ville dermed have udstrålet mere kvalitet end "billigt" skrammel, som det man finder i den lokale brugs.

Software - 3
Selve webinterfacet fungere ganske okay, jeg savner dog lidt flere små "info" bokse rundt om,  så man ikke altid behøver at ty til manualen.
Endvidere savner jeg også muligheden for at kunne angive et navn for en given regel under port forwardning. Derfor lander vi på en tre’er.

Ydelse - 4
Det er nogle fine hastigheder vi ser på det trådløse net. Den bedste og hurtigste hastighed opnås bedst ved brug af 5GHz båndet.
Routeren har også Gigabit LAN, hvor hastigheden herpå heller ikke har skuffet. USB funktionaliteten skuffer en del, jeg vil nærmeste betegne denne funktion næsten ubrugelig pga. af den lave hastighed der overføres med  - det må altså kunne gøres bedre!

Pris - 4
Prisen på lige under 1000,- synes at være ganske fair taget i betragtning af de muligheder produktet giver.

UK summary

I have had this router as my primary for a month. In that period I have had everything with a wireless connection attached, all from laptops, smartphones, tablets and more. It has been rock solid throughout the tested period, there´s no doubt that 5Ghz is the future. And after this test, I realized how bad I need a 5Ghz router myself.

Innovation/Technology - 4
TRENDnet have with AC1750 succeded in making a product with great versatility. For exsample: 5Ghz band, USB fileshare to both internal harddrives or USB printers and the possibility to make a network for guests only. We land on 4.

Bundle/Accessories - 3
There is absolutely on the required, but do you really need more? 

Design - 3
The design is ok, but the impression is a bit ruined by the choice of the grey colour which surrounds the router. In my view it would have added the product that last touch, if it was held in all black. It would have thereby signaled quality, rather than cheap garbage from your local store.

Software - 3
The webinterface as such works ok, I do however miss some more small "help" boxes, so you don´t always need to read through the manual. Also I miss the oppourtunity to apply a name to any given portforwarding rule. And therefore we land on a 3.

Performance - 4
It´s some great speeds we see on the wireless net. The best and fastest is obtained by using the 5Ghz band. The router also has Gigabit LAN, where the speed has not dissapointed either. The USB functions leaves a lot do desire, I would almost declare this function as useless because of the low speeds - this has to be better!

Price - 4
The price at just below 1000DKK seems fair, considering the possibilities the product offers.
