Xiaomi Router CR6606: It’s OK to use it as a gift from the operator, but don’t buy it at your own expense

Routers have entered the wifi6 era. In order to seize the market, the three major operators have also cooperated with manufacturers to launch router products suitable for their own networks. Recently, China Unicom and Xiaomi jointly launched the Xiaomi Router CR6606. As a router with WIFI6 technology, it also supports one-click Mesh networking and is priced at less than 300 yuan.

Although it is produced by Xiaomi, the Xiaomi Router CR6606 does not use the family's iconic white color, but instead uses a calm black color.

In order to ensure performance, the Xiaomi Router CR6606 uses a large-area aluminum alloy heat sink and high-thermal conductivity thermal conductive glue to further ensure the heat dissipation channels of the upper and lower panels, making air circulation smoother, significantly improving the service life of the router and ensuring operational efficiency.

Xiaomi Router CR6606 is a high-performance router that uses a MediaTek dual-core processor with a main frequency of 880MHz. The dual-band concurrent wireless rate will be as high as 1775Mbps. When multiple devices are connected, there will be no network congestion. While realizing real-time data transmission of multiple devices, it can also greatly reduce network latency. It has 256MB of large memory and can stably connect 128 devices.

It is worth noting that in order to reduce problems such as disconnection and signal interference, the Xiaomi Router CR6606 uses 4 high-gain omnidirectional antennas, which can make the signal coverage wider, the transmission distance longer, and further reduce signal interference and other problems.

When talking about Xiaomi Router CR6606, we have to talk about its Mesh networking method. Mesh networking is a network expansion method. For large rooms, the signal coverage of a single router is often limited, so there will be signal coverage dead spots. After adopting Mesh networking, the signal coverage dead spots will be completely eliminated and the whole house network coverage will be achieved.

Xiaomi Router CR6606 adopts such a networking method, with multiple routers forming a wired/wireless hybrid network to ensure Internet access efficiency.

Despite these benefits, a small reminder is needed here. Because it is a customized product of China Unicom, if it is given as a gift when installing broadband, this product is a good choice. If you buy it yourself, it is actually not cost-effective, because the processor of Redmi AX6 is Qualcomm 6-core, the dual-band concurrent rate can reach 2976Mbps, and the memory has 512M, but the price of the two is almost the same.
