Ethernet
Besides working with mobile networks the B525 router can be connected to the wired Internet via the LAN/WAN port located on the back of the device. The rest of the ports can be used to connect computers with no Wi-Fi-adapter to the router and create a small local network on their basis. The connection speed to the router via Ethernet cable is 1000 Mbps.
IP-Telephony
A corded phone connected to the router’s RG-11 connector can be used to make calls within the cellular network of the operator whose SIM card is inserted in the router (it should be noted that not all SIM cards can be used to make calls, some are designed exclusively for Internet access).
Usb
One of the advantages of the Huawei B525 is the presence of a USB connector. It can be used to connect removable drives, printers. The possibility of creating shared access to the devices plugged into the USB socket for users of the local network is supported. For example, it is possible to create a shared network storage on a flash drive or a removable hard disk and to set different access rights to the files located there for different users.
Wi-fi
Huawei B525 Wi-Fi module, in contrast to many other similar devices, supports two Wi-Fi-network frequency ranges — 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. In the frequency range of 2.4 GHz router can provide 802.11b/g/n, and in the frequency range of 5 GHz in the standard 802.11a/n/ac. It’s worth noting that many modern mobile devices are equipped with a Wi-Fi module, capable of working in the 5 GHz frequency range, because it can provide a more stable connection, in comparison with the 2.4 GHz module. Up to 32 devices can be connected to the router simultaneously over a Wi-Fi network.
Equipment
The package of the router Huawei B525 includes:- power adapter;- external (indoor) antenna to enhance the signal;- Ethernet-cable;- Quick Start Guide.
Setup / management
Settings on this device can be managed both via the web-interface, which is accessed using a browser, and by using a special Huawei HiLink App from a mobile device.
Functional characteristics
Stationary Wi-Fi router Huawei B525s-23a belongs to LTE category 6 devices, which makes it possible to work in high-speed 4G networks (LTE Advanced). The maximum download speed reaches 300 Mbit/s, and upload speed is 50 Mbit/s. In large cities of our country, where the fastest 4G network coverage is already available, the use of this device will be most justified, however, due to the support of previous generations of 4G (LTE) modes
The device can also provide access to mobile Internet, even when you are far away from the base stations of cellular operators. Switching between modes on the device is done automatically depending on the signal strength.
Pure Android VS manufacturer interface
One of the myths associated with Android sounds like «a clean system is much better than any shell». I myself have long held similar views, but the statement is not true in all cases — third-tier manufacturers in spite of the stock interface and lack of pre-installed programs successfully prove that the direct link between the interface and speed, stability is not, and many features of Android originally appeared in the devices from other manufacturers.
Therefore, the release by companies of their own interfaces is primarily a desire to stand out from the competition and give the consumer a little more features, to make using a smartphone more convenient. EMUI in this regard can be called one of the most functional solutions, and it is doubly pleasant that the company does not limit the possibilities even of its available devices.
