I didn't approach those speeds in my own testing with my 200 Mbps home internet connection, but I was still able to maintain a perfectly reasonable 95 Mbps - more than enough for web browsing and streaming.īattery life was also fairly strong and lasted a full workday. RAVPower claims you can hit speeds of up to 433 Mbps on the 5GHz band and up to 300 Mbps on the 2.4GHz band. Internet speeds were relatively solid throughout my testing as well. You will experience a more limited range than your standard router, but it's unlikely you'll have to stray too far away from the Filehub given its purpose anyhow. I never encountered any trouble actually connecting and staying connected to either the 5GHz or 2.4GHz bands. When acting as a router, the Filehub performs well. All of this is made a little bit easier if you are wirelessly connected to the Filehub's 2.4GHz or 5GHz Wi-Fi bands, however, as you can also move files straight from a mobile device over to storage connected to the Filehub with the Filehub app. Just attach an SD card and a USB storage device at the same time, and you can use a dedicated button on the Filehub's side to perform an instant file transfer from the SD card to your USB device. In fact, you never have to even use the Filehub as a router if you want to do a quick backup. That can be done through a couple of different methods using both the SD-card slot on the side of the Filehub, along with the USB port that sits on its rear. Not only is it meant to act as a personal router that you can tack on to any Ethernet connection, but it aims to be your one-stop shop for backing up files, too.


There's something to be said about RAVPower's goals with the Filehub.
