Everyone knows, jellyfish meets everyone again.
We are very honored to bring us the evaluation of the US Netgear R9000 Nighthawks X10. We can also experience this flagship router of Netware, which is the pinnacle of Netware. It is also the first 802.11ad standard router in the consumer market and the fastest router currently available for media streaming on Plex media servers. As the world's strongest home router, Jellyfish is also very much looking forward to.
The speed of the aunt and SF Express is still very fast, Shun Feng the next day. The router was received the next afternoon, and one day it was New Year's Eve. It was also a year ago when we received the test product. When I first received the router, I was still a little surprised. The express box was quite large and quite heavy. When I took it home, my adult asked me what I had. I said the router. Mother said: "This big router? You got a tower."
Open the express box, the box of the router is wrapped in three layers of bubble paper and three layers are very tight, and it takes a long time to remove it completely.
The router's own box is also very large. This pack is bigger than the Nighthawk X8's big box.
Netgear R9000 Nighthawk X10's packaging is luxurious.
This R9000 Nighthawk X10 should be the US version, so there is no Chinese on the package. If you buy the State Bank, it will be the full Chinese box.
The side of the box is the introduction of the router and the classification of the functions. On the back is 4K streaming and VR gaming features. What is the relationship between routers and VR games, this will be described in detail later.
The opening of the router's packaging is also more interesting. First of all, there is a carton cover that resembles a "book waist." Pulling out the carton sleeve will open the box.
This kind of open-top packaging does not imply that "I am a senior product."
Below the package, except for a power adapter and a bonus cable, as well as an instruction manual, the following are all empty and wasteful, and the box can be made compact. After taking out all the things, the weight of the box is very heavy.
The power supply is the same 19V 3.16a power supply as the R8500 Nighthawk X8.
Fast WiFi Starts Here ! kai xin ha ha !
The appearance still maintains the consistent design style of the NETGEAR. There is still a big difference in the appearance of the Nighthawk X8.
There is a small fan inside the heat sink. This is not exclusive to the US version. The BNM is also a small fan. It is exactly the same. The fact that there is no fan on the Internet is actually an early test model of the NETGEAR. The retail version is equipped with a fan, and the internal heat dissipation is also better. No matter whether the US version or the State Bank is shrinking. Also have to say that the logo of the official version has become smaller, and the logo of the early test version of the front netware is scary.
Compared with the night eagle X8's big wave, modeling is more scientific and more geek, of course, modeling or benevolent. The heat dissipation area is larger than that of the X8, and it also uses a small fan to add. Of course, the temperature is not high during normal use, and the small fan does not work.
However, the exposed green PCB board and antenna can still be seen through the heat dissipation metal mesh. If the PCB is replaced with black, it would be better, but my impression is that in addition to green is a blue PCB, there should be no black.
There are four active active antennas on the side. And with a light source, but the details of the abrasive joints are somewhat larger.
Various indicators on the front panel.
The R9000 Nighthawk X10 is equipped with two USB 3.0 ports for external storage expansion. A change from the previous USB 2.0 to USB 3.0 is a perfect solution to the interference problem.
The R9000 Nighthawk X10 offers seven Gigabit network interfaces, one of which is a Gigabit WAN and six of which are Gigabit LANs. In addition, the R9000 Nighthawk X10's LAN1 and LAN2 interfaces also support link aggregation, which can be used to consolidate two 1Gbps lines into a single 2Gbps line for use with products that support link aggregation, such as high-end NAS.
Bottom nameplate.
In addition to the large metal cooling holes on the top, the bottom heat dissipation is also a metal material. The use of solid materials also makes the entire router very valuable.
Summary: Netgear R9000 Nighthawks X10's overall appearance is good, heat dissipation is also in place. Workmanship materials are very solid, but the details are "American", such as the USB connection is relatively large, the small details of the antenna grinding tools, of course, German goods "de taste", the United States goods of course, the kind of unique taste of American .
Technical specifications:
From the network official website technical specification introduction
The processor used Israel's Annapurna Labs AL314, a quad-core processor previously acquired by Amazon, clocked at 1.7Ghz. With 512MB NAND flash memory and 1GB DDR3 memory, it can be said that it is powerful inside the router. This volume has reached the NAS configuration.
The Netgear R9000 Nighthawk X10's 2.4G and 5G 802.11Ac radios are 800Mbps and 1733Mbps, respectively. The 60G 802.11ad part has reached a speed of 4600Mbps, and supports 4x4 MU-MIMO technology and 256-QAM modulation mode. The router products belonging to the AD7200 class are also the first 802.11ad routers in the consumer market.
10G SFP+:
Netgear R9000 Nighthawks X10 is also equipped with a 10G SFP+ 10Gigabit optical interface to support 10GbE network expansion.
SFP+ is called Small Form-factor Pluggables, which is a 10G LAN SFP+ port advertised by NETGEAR for fast NAS access. SFP+ and our home fiber-optic PON fiber network are not a single specification, so this interface can only be used as a LAN-linked user equipment. Can not be used as WAN and operator's optical fiber connection, commonly used in telecommunication and data communication in optical communication applications. The SFP is connected to the network device's motherboard and fiber or UTP cable.
Simply put, currently the 10G interface can cooperate with SFP+ optical modules and Intel 10GbE network cards, and can be used as a high-speed NAS for file transfer.
A high-profile desktop computer, plus several large-capacity high-speed SDDs and Intel's 10GbE network adapters and SFP+ optical modules, this network router can achieve ultra-high-speed file transfer with a stable up to 1GB. /s transfer. Let me think of Gorilla Power! Power! Power! Use Nighthawk X10 you must change Speed! Speed! Speed!
Summary: Of course, in addition to the current high-speed file transfer, in the near future, the popularity of 10G fiber in China's households, you can experience a rapid Internet experience, the Chinese government has given strong support for the popularity of fiber optic networks, the future 10G universal can still be expected After all, Canadian tyrants are still using the ADSL phone line to go online (because they are very high prices of individual fiber).
Dismantling:
Remove the four screws from the bottom, and there are four screws in the left and right rubber strips.
The four screws of the metal heat sink should be machined in and very tight. Finally, the four screws were removed with the help of a small wrench.
The top cover is also tight, requiring a little bit of split
After removing the top cover, you can see the internal part of the NETGEAR R9000 Nighthawk X10. The router uses a green PCB board and the antenna interface is arranged on the front of the board. And covered by a large area of ​​aluminum metal fins, there is also a small fan in the middle, but in the firmware and fan speed and working status can not find the relevant settings.
A large area metal film antenna for 60Ghz 802.11ad at the bottom of the router.
Remove the fixed strip and see that there are 4 feeders in the top 2.4G and 5G antennas.
The 10G SFP+ interface, which is 10GbE fiber interface, supports extended 10GbE network.
Qualcomm Atheros QCA9008-SBD1 chip, this chip can provide an 802.11ad standard wireless network with a bandwidth of 4.6Gbps, and is also the most used 802.11ad chip.
Since the main parts of the Gigabit R9000 Nighthawk X10 are equipped with EMI metal shields and are coated with thermal grease on them, the jellyfish does not have professional tools. After opening the EMI metal shield, it cannot be restored. Therefore, the metal shield is not removed. Now. (Well, in fact, jellyfish does not know how to remove the spring screws on the heat sink, because the PCB is relatively thin, the chip capacitance is also more, and after many attempts to give up violent dismantling) Of course this is the first time that NETGEAR took this This kind of fixing method and this kind of large-area metal heat dissipation design.
The R9000 Nighthawks X10 router's mainboard can be roughly divided into 5 parts, the left side is the router's CPU and memory, the flash memory part, the upper part is the wired part, the right part is the 2.4GHz and 5GHz wireless part, the lower part is Is a 60GHz ad chip.
CPU is not used by the common Broadcom U, but from the Annapurna Labs AL314 processor acquired by Amazon, based on the quad-core Cortex-A15 architecture, clocked at up to 1.7Ghz. This CPU is also used on the two NASs of the Synology DS715 and DS1515, and it is even higher than the 1.4GHz frequency of Synology. It can be said that it is the strongest core router. The left two are DDR3 memory from South Asia, with a single capacity of 512MB and two 1G memory. Above is a 512MB flash memory.
The wireless part R9000 Nighthawk X10 2.4GHz and 5GHz are QUALCOMM QCA9984 chip.
Wired part of the R9000 Nighthawk X10 uses two switch chips from Qualcomm QCA8337 to provide network convergence functions, one responsible for the WAN port and LAN1, LAN2 aggregation capabilities, and the other responsible for the remaining LAN4-6.
Active antenna praise. Disconnect the antenna and PCBs are 2.4G and 5G on both sides. The antenna housing uses light guides just like the indicator lights. The antenna will have beautiful blue LED lights, which I do not know where to go higher than my R6400 antenna.
Summary: Netgear R9000 Nighthawks X10 powerful, can be called the router's strongest hardware, fully equipped with the title of the flagship. The internal work route is also relatively regular and the interface, chip and antenna layout are reasonable.
To compare with the R6400 that is in service, the R9000 is one lap larger than it is, and it is as big as a 15-inch notebook.
The LED indicator can still be turned off completely in the setting, and the physical switch of the indicator light is also added on the router body. This is praise.
The blue LED light on the antenna is also very nice.
In terms of settings, it is still very simple and does not require too many settings. I will not introduce you.
After setting up, two softwares will be automatically downloaded. One is the netware wizard and the other is Readyshare.
Customary firmware update.
There is still no time switch function in the firmware. Only the Internet access function is turned off.
Nothing to say about the setup, it's very simple, and the netware firmware has always been simple. Of course, the playability and information aspects are also very few. Basically, temperature, plug-ins, and work status are invisible.
By the way, just say about the 20mhz/40mhz coexistence setting. In the end, it is still not open, in fact, according to personal habits, apart from the old equipment at home, it is the speed and interference problems. When 20/40Mhz is turned on and there is a large amount of peripheral interference, it will be reduced to 20Mhz, and the speed will be reduced by half to enhance anti-interference and friendliness. If it is not turned on, it will remain at 40Mhz. Simply put, if you are a running sub-controller who likes to run fasttest speed, then you can switch off 20/40Mhz coexistence. If you are looking for stability, then it is recommended to open it. Of course, according to the surrounding environment to open or close, if you live in ordinary residential buildings is still recommended to open, if you live in the villa around the interference is less, then you can let it keep 40Mhz. However, a 5G run speed, 2.4G run distance to use, in fact, do not particularly care, put 20/40Mhz coexistence open on the line.
Netware's firmware is basically nothing to play except for PLEX, so let's take a look at how the only PLEX server actually works.
PLEX:
PLEX Media Server:
The PLEX media server manages music, videos, and photos stored on a locally connected USB storage drive and imports these media files to your device, such as desktop computers, mobile phones, and tablets.
Can provide NAS function, video and picture playback is similar to millet router's storage disk, can be played on mobile phones and TVs, boxes. And PLEX provides more full platform coverage, you can think of devices have coverage.
Mesh sent three months of PLEX members. But just like Apple music, you have to bind a credit card to use it. After expiration, it will be 4.99 USD per month, 39.99 USD per year, and 119.99 USD for life.
Need to download plex media server and plex player, the download requires scientific Internet access.
After setting up the PLEX server, it is ready for use.
After the R9000 Nighthawk X10 has completed the media collation work, it can use any device to watch videos on its own private server.
Mobile phone play:
Perfect ~
TV broadcast:
Jellyfish uses a millet box, and the PLEX version of Android's software phone is a TV version, but it will turn into a TV version when it is installed on an Android TV.
The experience on the millet box is excellent, the interface is friendly, suitable for remote control operation, and there is a feeling of using Apple TV.
Tried several different formats of movies can be smooth transcoding decoding playback.
Online video playback can also be adjusted according to your needs, and the movie can match the cover itself.
Perfect ~
The feeling of using a private media server is still very good, PLEX is also very friendly to use, video PLEX will also optimize the transcoding format. The experience is still very good, and there is also official Chinese support. So easy to use, of course, after the gift of three months membership expires, to renew membership slightly, but if it is free.
Summary: PLEX with the R9000 is really good enough, good enough, and has reached the publicity of "appreciate the media content of all devices anytime, anywhere." At the same time, NETGEAR R9000 also brings a first-class conversion coding function, powerful CPU is also unable to do other routers.
Mobile APP:
NetApp's new App specifically for the flagship series is much more sophisticated than the previous NETGEAR elves. However, it is very bad that although the management software is much more sophisticated, the function is still very poor.
The 60G password will not be covered. Welcome to bring your own 60G device to the jellyfish home network and provide a small bench.
Signal strength:
Router location:
Area of ​​about 120m2, brick-concrete structure. Since the location of the old house network cable and light cat is fixed, the placement of the router is not ideal (of course for me). When the new house was renovated, it was the location of its own design, including the route from the electric box, so the location was ideal.
Mobile Phone (Nubia Z11):
This R9000 Nighthawk X10 is a North American version, and the signal strength is still very good, of course, because of the use of an active antenna, the signal is stronger and more stable.
Originally wanted to use connectbot to do a stress test, but not ASUS Merlin's firmware does not see the load and the data, so it is of little significance.
Computer (Intel AC3160):
The network card uses the Intel ac3160 802.11Ac network card currently used in notebooks as a mobile signal test.
Software used: Wirelessmon
living room:
Jellyfish bedroom:
After wearing the bearing wall and a long distance, 5G can still show a good level, let alone 2.4G.
More distant restaurant:
Of course, here to say is that although the positioning of the R9000 Nighthawks X10 is a super large unit, due to the limitation of transmitting power, in the case of a safety standard, it is recommended that large-sized or multi-storey villas are better equipped with several APs.
speed:
Telecom fiber 100M asymmetric broadband, test equipment: iPhone7, Dell Tour (Intel AC3160), test software: Speedtest, Tencent Speed ​​Managed.
Everything is normal and start testing.
wireless:
wired:
Dell Tour (R&S RTL8168/8111/8112), Super Six wire.
In terms of Thunder downloads, if the resources are stable, non-members can basically run at full speed.
Summary: Firmware, mobile management APP is still a short board, playability is not high, too simple. Satisfactory speed and signal strength. In the case of meeting the safety standards for radio transmission equipment, the maximum advantage can be exerted, and the same 100M broadband can also run steadily. After several days of use, the overall performance of the router is also very stable.
802.11ad:
The application of 802.11ad is 4K streaming and VR games promoted by NETGEAR. However, devices that support 802.11ad currently are not widely used. Basically, they are not available on portable devices. In terms of computers, 802.11ad cards use M.2 KEY A (different from ordinary M2 NGFF). Currently, only Dell Latitude E is available. Series models and XPS 18 top models also have ThinkPad X1 Carbon with M.2 KEY A interface, which can be replaced. In addition to the need to buy Intel 18260AC or Dell DW1601 network card also need to buy an antenna to use. The ThinkPad X1 Carbon can be replaced by the Intel 18260AC on the jellyfish's veteran, but since the Chinese New Year jellyfish have asked two sellers who can buy the antenna, they will be able to ship until the end of the New Year. Docking station was tested again.
802.11ad is mainly used to implement the transmission of wireless high-definition audio and video signals inside the home, and brings more complete HD video solutions to home multimedia applications. Instead of congested 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, 802.11ad uses the 60 GHz spectrum of high-frequency carriers. At the same time, 802.11ad can realize simultaneous transmission of multiple channels under the support of MIMO technology, and the transmission bandwidth of each channel will exceed 1 Gbps, which is an ideal frequency band for high-definition signals. To put it simply, the application of 802.11ad will be able to carry out media transmission in the same way as Bluetooth, but it will not be simple audio and files, but will be synchronized with the screens and devices in the future, with lower latency and Higher quality. At the same time, it is also suitable for a small area of ​​ultra-multiple people connected to the network at the
Of course, its use is also determined by the characteristics of 802.11ad, such as: 60GHz carrier penetrating power is poor, its transmission distance, signal coverage will have an impact, which makes its effective connection will be in a small range. In an ideal state, 802.11ad is best used as a channel for high-speed wireless transmission between various devices in the room, that is, replacing data lines, HDMI lines, audio lines, etc., in the future. Of course, it will take time.
In general, the NETGEAR R9000 Nighthawk X10 is worthy of its flagship title regardless of its configuration or workmanship. Of course, the Nighthawk X10 is also a product of Netgear's Hyun-Tech. Under the condition that the Nighthawk X8 is powerful enough, the X10 with 10G SFP+ and PLEX is launched. It is enough to defend your router's status as a big brother. Of course, from now on, the nighthawk X8 with dual 5G may have a higher price/performance ratio, but the Nighthawk X10 is a strong player facing the future and is a new storm. If you are a router enthusiast and want to use a router as a NAS, then the Netgear R9000 Nighthawk X10 is a very good recommendation. I believe that in this form of "net disk death, private disk", Nighthawk X10 will be more people need and recognition.
Last but not least, the details of the grinding tools can be further elaborated. The firmware and software are still short boards. Although the tradition of simplicity and ease of use is maintained, as a flagship router, the firmware of the meshes still needs to be Plus polished and rich. I hope you don't really become the "fastest device, the slowest firmware" in your mouth. After all, NETGEAR's equipment used its own excellent firmware that is the sinking.
Finally, don't go away here. Welcome everyone to pay attention to this jellyfish. The handsome and beautiful lady sisters are all paying attention to oh~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Comments, continued for one second~
