Осторожно, антенны!
00:01:35The author warns about the importance of connecting antennas to Mikrotik routers, as they are not allowed to be turned on without them. The packaging has a warning label that is often overlooked by users.
Экстерьер роутера
00:03:05The MikroTik router has a sleek design with a black plastic casing and rubberized coating. It comes with five gigabit ports, one of which is Ethernet, and can reach speeds up to 867 megabits per second in the 5-gigahertz range. However, it only supports 2x2 mode and lacks support for higher modes like 3x3 or even 4x4. Despite this limitation, many serious desktop computers still support it as an external router option for home use.
Аппаратная платформа
00:05:00The slow speed of the home network is due to the powerful chipset used, which supports various functions including hardware encryption tunnels. However, it can only be used for networking needs and not for expansion modules as there is no space available on the board. It may be useful for a small percentage of users but generally unnecessary in most cases.
Вскрытие роутера. Жутковатое качество сборки
00:06:54The hero of the video opens up a router to reveal its internal components, including an impressive radiator with an original design. The antenna is detachable and can be replaced with compatible ones for better performance. However, some modifications made by the manufacturer are questionable, such as filling empty spaces with paste instead of installing necessary components like a modem or using proper thermal pads for heat dissipation.
Настройка RouterOS и ее "особенности"
00:10:07Setting up RouterOS and its features The default Mikrotik network is not secure, but it can be protected by configuring the "secure set" option. The menu interface is in a foreign language (not Russian), making it difficult to navigate.
Troubleshooting and Language Configuration There are issues with security settings, Wi-Fi configuration, and changing languages on the router. Some of these problems may require going into deeper settings or using external resources for help. Additionally, there are differences between countries' naming conventions for networks that can cause confusion when setting up routers.
Неутешительные итоги
00:26:33Setting up RouterOS and its features The narrator discusses the convenience of adjusting settings for time zones and planes, as well as searching for a free frequency range. They also mention their struggles with configuring certain aspects of the router.
Frustration with connection issues The narrator expresses frustration with trying to connect external devices to the router, including flash drives and hard disks. They also discuss difficulties in adding users and passwords, while questioning why some recommended solutions do not work for them. The chapter ends on a note of confusion about what steps they should take next.
Microtik for Business Microtik is a good choice for solving specific business tasks such as operators, complex network infrastructure in offices and cost-effective solutions. However, it is not useful for home use due to its lack of necessary features.
Myths about Microtik There are several myths surrounding the stability of Mikrotik routers which are untrue. Additionally, they do not support smooth client-to-client transmission or have hardware VPN encryption capabilities like other brands such as IISUS Kinetic Elite. It's important to consult an expert before purchasing a router and avoid wasting time and money on subpar equipment that may be difficult to navigate without prior knowledge.
