Today you can no longer do without the Internet. However, it is not always possible to take advantage of it everywhere in your home in the best of conditions. If you can’t poke holes everywhere to build a wired network worthy of webcafs (yes, that was another millennium), you need to find an acceptable wireless solution. Like a WiFi repeater. The Strong ATRIA Mesh 1200 could help you with that.
Don’t you know strong It is normal. The network offering of the Chinese brand (actually part of Skyworth) first developed to manufacture and sell televisions and smart TV or Android TV “decoders”.. With this in mind, the field of wireless communications has evolved too … In order for your connected TVs to work properly, they must be WELL connected. That’s good, the players also appreciate a good connection.
Branch and play
Orient very general public The ATRIA 1200 is offered as a kit with two repeater / routing elements that can be connected to the Internet connection source (your box). You don’t have to mess around with a master module and other slaves
The maneuver works well, as does resetting via the button accessible with a toothpick or fine tool (age sometimes makes you forget passwords …). As soon as the first connection is established, You can use the smartphone app to configure your network a bit and give it a slightly less barbaric name. There is also everything you need to manage your IP if you want to create your own network. We also appreciate the neat little way to turn off the LEDs at night and avoid having a Christmas tree in the room. Most people will leave the basic settings and that will be fine.
If you want to access ATRIA via the web interface, you have to connect your computer directly to it. The interface is translated correctly (If you are entitled to a great video in German in the introduction to this review, the brand obviously makes Shenzen) and doesn’t look cheap. It’s clear and clean.
MESH boxes
The technology has been in place for a few years and makes using WiFi repeaters a lot easier and more intuitive. The MESH or “net” in Engl ish, It’s an architecture in which all of your devices are interconnected with no central hierarchy
Previously only reserved for companies or for those who could adjust their network parameters a little, this topology is becoming more democratic. So, You only have one visible extension network at home (not 20 points where you have to manually connect), and your devices connect whichever is most efficient. The results are convincing. It works well that it is us thanks to the 2.4 or 5G antennas ct de la box or one floor above (Here is the reference flow of the box that is being used at this precise point in time). One box extends about 100m and you can have 6 in total. Here, too, you can visualize all of this via the user interface and control the intensity of the signals in order to place them optimally.
The starter kit contains two and if you really have a large area to cover (or a lot of wave absorption in your walls) it is better to get another one right away than to buy the units together. In fact, the kit costs $ 70 while the device prompts you to pay $ 40.
With the ATRIA 1200, Strong offers a product with no frills and no major defects. It will suit most uses unless you really want to get NASA’s performance. In this case, it is probably not WiFi that interests you most.
