Earlier we reviewed DG-BG4300NU wifi router and now it’s time to dig about DG-HR3400. The IPv6 ready router looks good and setting it up, just take a few minutes. You just need to plug-in the LAN (RJ-45) cable and using the simple web interface, you can configure the router.
This 802.11b/g/n wireless router comes with 2 wireless antennae supporting 5dBi. The wireless range of the router is quite long. During the test we received healthy signals for more than 10 meters, however, obstacles were creating trouble yet the response was better than DG-BG4300NU. The router also has URL blocking parental control. Using the web interface you can block websites which you don’t want to let users visit.
This is a 2.4 GHz single band router that provides up to 300 MBPS wireless speed. We tested the signal performance of Digisol DG-HR3400 using an isolated ‘N’ network with the router connected to two machines, one wirelessly and the other with cable. Using the ‘Qcheck 3.0’ benchmark we checked average throughput with a 1000 KB payload. In this test, it clocked an average speed of 98 Mbps which is better than the previous Digisol router. We transferred 61 MB of data from one machine to the other and here too, the time of 9 seconds, where is was slower than DG-BG4300NU. Using Wi-Fi Network Analyzer, we tested the wireless speed of the router and it resulted in 86 MBPS of speed and -42 dBm of signal strength.
