This document describes the Xiaomi router, detailing its functions, usage features, and maintenance.
The setup process for the Xiaomi router is straightforward, involving three main stages to establish an immediate internet connection.
1. Connecting Power Supply and Network Cable To begin, connect the router to its power supply and the network cable. One end of the network cable should be plugged into the blue connector of the Xiaomi router. The other end connects to your external network connector, which is typically found on a broadband modem. This standard modem connection ensures the router receives its internet signal.
2. Wi-Fi Connection Once the router is powered and connected to the internet, you can connect your devices. Activate Wi-Fi on your phone or computer and search for available networks. Connect to the network named "Xiaomi WIFI." The router supports both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, allowing for flexible connectivity options. The 5 GHz band offers higher speeds and better interference suppression, while the 2.4 GHz band provides broader coverage.
3. Authorization
To authorize your Xiaomi Router, open a web browser and navigate to miwifi.com (or use the modem IP address 192.168.31.1). This will take you to the Xiaomi router interface, where the connection will be established. You will be prompted to sign in with your Mi-account. If you don't have one, you'll need to sign up on https://i.mi.com/. During this process, you will name your device and set a network password as shown in the provided picture. Additionally, you can change the MAC address of the router and control traffic.
4. Congratulations! Upon completing these steps, your Xiaomi router is fully installed and ready for use.
The Xiaomi router offers a robust configuration with several key features designed to enhance your internet experience.
Wi-Fi Connectivity The router supports high-speed Wi-Fi on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. The interoperability of these two radio blocks allows for simultaneous operation, supporting 802.11ac. The 2.4 GHz band offers a maximum connection speed of 300 Mbit/s, but it can be susceptible to interference from devices like microwave ovens, Bluetooth, and other Wi-Fi devices. The 5 GHz band provides a higher maximum connection speed of 866 Mbit/s, contributing to better interference suppression and a more stable internet connection, though its bandwidth is typically weaker over longer distances. If your mobile device supports 5 GHz, it is recommended to connect to the high-speed wireless internet Xiaomi_xxxx5 GHz for optimal performance.
Data Storage and High-Speed RAM The router includes a 1TB internal HDD SATA for information storage, capable of holding approximately 1000 GB. This allows for storing a vast amount of data, including songs, movies, and pictures. The read/write speed of the RAM is significantly faster than USB 2.0, ensuring quick data access. The router also supports USB, providing high-speed operation for flash cards with more memory and portable hard drives.
Synchronization with "Cloud" All files stored on the router can be synchronized with the "Cloud." Fast synchronization occurs even when the router's signal is inaccessible, with files being synchronized with the "cloud" data storage. The continuous memory increase feature allows for an ongoing expansion of storage capacity beyond the initial 1000 GB. To make a backup, open the router control app and enable the "Router Cloud" feature.
High-Speed Downloading The router comes with a built-in client program called Xunlei (Thunder) for offline (standalone) downloads. This high-compatibility client allows for high-speed downloads, especially when linked to a VIP account. Remote downloading is also supported, enabling you to download music, movies, and large files from any device at any time. The Xunlei (Thunder) Media Player allows for quick finding and playing of your favorite audio and video files.
