Router this thing, usually after the purchase is set up, just put a gray in a corner of the home, if not often dropped or broken network, we may rarely replace a router. Nowadays, intelligent routers emerge one after another, and they are updated from generation to generation. Is it necessary for users to change routers that can be used at home?
Recently, Xiao Bian got an enhanced version of Pole Routing 4. Let's take a look at the difference between this latest generation of Pole Routing and the previous generation of Pole Routing 3, and whether it is worth the user to buy a new product.
Is the signal coverage stronger?
When we talk about routers, people may be most concerned about the speed of the network. Will they often drop or get stuck when they use it?
In the trial of this pole routing 4 enhanced version, Xiaobian, like the last test pole routing 3, chose our YORK office area and used the same test route for testing.
We put the polar routing 4 enhanced version in the red circle position, the polar routing 3 places about 1 meter away from the polar routing 4 enhanced version, the test route is: from the A point in the middle of the two routers, go to the distance of 20 meters Step B of the stairs, then turn into bathroom C. After coming out of the bathroom, descend from stairs D, walk downstairs, and then go upstairs from stairs E to the initial position.
The entire office area has a single floor area of ​​approximately 600 square meters (40 x 15 meters). As shown in the above figure, there are no solid walls other than the bathroom and stairs.
This time again, Xiao Bian used a software called “Wifi Analyzer†to test the Wi-Fi signal strength of the two routers. Among them, the Wi-Fi name of the polar route 3 is "ceshi1" and the Wi-Fi name of the polar route 4 enhanced version is "ceshi2". Below we use data to speak.
The above figure shows the signal strength of the two routers at point A.
Still need to explain again, dBm is the unit of signal intensity, the bigger the value is, the stronger the signal is, 0dBm is the strongest degree. For example, a signal of -10 dBm is stronger than a signal of -20 dBm.
At point A, it can be seen that the signal of the polar routing 4 enhanced version is stronger than the signal of the polar routing 3. This is very close to the router, about 1 meter.
Then, Xiao Bian went to point B at the top of the stairs.
At point B, it can be seen from the data shown in the figure above that the signal at the polar route 3 is -58 dBm, which is better than the -62 dBm of the enhanced version of the polar route 4, but there is not much difference between the two.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Bian walked to the bathroom known as the "signal corner."
In the bathroom, although it is possible to connect to Wi-Fi with an enhanced version of Pole Routing 4, the signal is not very good and has dropped to -75 dBm, which is not very stable. Compared with the signal strength of the polar route 3, it is almost the same.
Afterwards, Xiao Bian goes down the stairs D. On the stairs D, it is still possible to connect the upper route 4 enhanced version of Wi-Fi, the signal strength is -65dBm, which is a little better than the signal in the bathroom, but The signal strength of the polar route 3 is also not much different.
When Xiao Bian walked down the stairs and reached the same position as B’s, the Xiao Bian found that he was not online.
Subsequently, Xiao Bian went back along the route. The Wi-Fi is reconnected at point F, about 10 meters from the router, as shown below.
But this time we can see that the signal of polar route 3 is better than the signal of polar route 4 enhanced version.
Finally, the Xiaobian goes upstairs along the stairs E. On the stairs, the polar routing 4 enhanced version can be connected. The signal strength is not a problem for ordinary Internet access. Although the effect is better than the -71dBm signal of the polar routing 3, but to be honest, the two The difference is not great.
So from the above test situation, Xiao Bian believes that if you do not wear a wall, a new generation of pole routing is indeed better than the polar routing 3, but if you want to wear a wall, the signal strength may be almost.
Plug-in rich and easy operation In addition to the main signal of good features, the polar route has been promoting its own rich smart plug-ins. In the background of Pole Routing 4 Plus, there are still many smart plug-ins, and they will be constantly updated. For more detailed information, please refer to the smart router before Xiao Bian, not just as simple as networking control!
In addition, in the operation control, the PC-side background and the pole-like routing 3, after the connection is very easy to manage operations, you can set the intensity level, set the blacklist, limit the speed of the network.

In the control of the mobile phone side, it is also very convenient and quick, and it can perform Wi-Fi settings, one-button speed measurement, one-button physical examination, etc., and can manage plug-ins.
Improved appearance and enhanced thermal treatment For a router, in addition to the improvements in networking, the part that will be improved is appearance.
Although the new generation of Pole-Route 4 enhanced version has changed in appearance, but to be honest, it is not surprising to Tianmei. After all, the router thing is not every day out for others to see, so even if there are some subtle improvements, It is still not separated from the construction of a square box plus several antennas.
However, this generation of Route 4 Plus has really been innovative. We can see that it has two antennas, but in fact it is the fusion of four 5dBi antennas into the housing of two antennas, and each of the two antennas can be adjusted in any direction within a quarter of a sphere. .
In addition to this, Polar Route 4 Plus adds a new thermal design. On both sides of the pole routing 4 enhanced version is a fence-style cooling holes, the bottom of the entire board cooling hole design makes the polar routing 4 enhanced version can be close to the desktop for the internal chip thermal conduction heat dissipation, known as the fastest passive cooling router .

Running for a whole day, Tianmei discovered that the polar route 4 enhanced version is lower in temperature than the polar route 3, and it is clear that the thermal treatment is still good.
In addition to the above several improvements, the overall style of the continuation of the previous generation of concise business was as good as the home.
to sum up:
Pole Routing 4 enhanced version has always adhered to the "good signal, rich plug-in" features, in the appearance also enhance the cooling design, although compared with the previous generation of Pole Route 3, and there is no rapid change, but the cost is also very high of.
Xiao Bian suggested that if your home router is often dropped, stuck, or you just need to buy a router, then Polar Route 4 Plus is still a good choice, if you already have a smart router like Polar Route 3 , it will not be necessary to update it.
