Routers have become an extremely integral part of our lives. Without it, I highly doubt we’d be able to get any work done. Especially, during this pandemic. So, we need a router that we can rely upon. Xiaomi Nepal launched its affordable router, the Mi Router 4C almost a year ago which is now enjoying a permanent price-drop.
Mi Router 4C Overview:
Xiaomi is a brand that people trust. It is known to produce pocket-friendly devices that get the job done. And the Mi Router 4C is no different. It is not a dual-band router and therefore only supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi 802.11 (n). In a relatively small package, the router brings to you four high-performance omnidirectional antennae, offers speeds of up to 300Mbps. The device measures 195 x 178.9 x 107 mm and thus it is a considerably slim device.
Mi Router 4C’s overall design is pretty much similar to the Mi Router 3. The bottom part of the router is made up of aluminum-magnesium alloy. This helps the device to automatically cool down.
Under the hood, the device is powered by the MediaTek MT7628N processor. Similarly, the router itself operates at a frequency of 880MHz. Furthermore, it also has 64MB DDDR2 RAM and 16MB NorFlash ROM. On the outside, the device has two ethernet ports that allow you to manually connect devices.

Moreover, there’s a QoS tool using which you can manage the bandwidth as per your requirement.
