  • Linksys EA8500 Max-Stream AC2600 MU-MIMO er den første ruteren som bruker Qualcomms MU/EFX, en teknologi som skal gi bedre ytelse i Wi-Fi-nettverk hvor det er mange enheter på nett samtidig. Vår test viser at dette stemmer. Den raske ruteren viste seg å...

  • Linksys EA8500 er verdens første router med MU-MIMO-teknologi, som sandsynligvis kan forbedre streaming- og spiloplevelser i trådløse flerbrugernetværk – engang. Aktuelt ligger EA8500 helt i top, når det gælder ydelse og rækkevidde, og det gør den mere en...

  • Linksys EA8500 to niewątpliwie jedno z ciekawszych urządzeń na rynku. Obecnie jego cena oscyluje w granicach 1300 zł zdecydowanie nie jest to więc urządzenie tanie. Należy jednak pamiętać że jest to sprzęt stworzony dla bardzo wymagających użytkowników...

  • Jest to obecnie jedyny ruter z oficjalnie działającą technologią MU-MIMO. Quantenna, producent modułów 802.11ac dla między innymi Asusa i Netgeara, twierdzi, że jest to tylko kwestia aktualizacji firmware'u. Na razie jednak nie ma żadnych łatek dla wypusz...

  • Linksys EA8500 je silný router. Je do domácnosti pre tých, ktorí vedia, čo chcú alebo potrebujú. My sme si pochvaľovali najmä jednoduchú obsluhu, no aj možnosť napojenia na cloud výrobcu a dosah na nastavenia routera mimo domácnosti. To platí potom aj pre...

  • 受工作原理的制约,即便SU-MIMO无线路由器配置再高,但是遇到连接设备过多的情况,依然会出现网络反应变慢的问题。对于这类用户来说,最佳的解决方案就是选择一台支持MU-MIMO技术的无线路由器。作为首款支持MU-MIMO技术的无线路由器LINKSYS EA8500,可以将上网设备的连接速率提升3倍,轻松解决解决多用户多设备同时高速联网的需求。     同时这款无线路由器在信号强度、散热性能以及扩展能力上都体现出一款旗舰级产品应有水准。虽说设置界面的易用性还有可以提高的空间,但瑕不掩瑜,如果你想用上MU...

  • Linksys EA8500毫无疑问是目前市面上最为强大的无线路由器产品,超过800Mbps的吞吐量测试,几乎跑满千兆的USB读写速度,都给我们留下了极其深刻的印象。但是中文固件的缺失,还是给了用户不小的遗憾,希望Linksys能够尽快为中国用户做好本土化的固件升级服务。同时,我们也期待4*4架构的无线网卡能够尽快上市,这样EA8500也有了更大的用武之地。...

  • Abstract:  Multi-User 技術增加無線通訊效率無線網絡需求在近年大幅增長,除了有較多桌面電腦以及行動電腦使用無線網絡之外,智能手機以及平板電腦亦是令無線網絡需求增加的原因之一,一般來說現時平均每人都擁有超過一台的行動通訊裝置,以一個四人家庭為例,家中可能就已經擁有近十台不同的無線裝置,包括有智能電話、平板電腦、打印機、 IP CAM 等。多年前的無線路由器都以單天線設計,直至到 802.11n 制式的出現,開始引入 MIMO 技術,利用一組以上的天線同時進行收發,以提升無線網絡速度,以 1T1R 設計的 8...
