Grundsätzlich ist er ein WLAN Router:
1. General Wireless Router
Keep the R1 plugged in at home for use as a standard wireless router, keeping your phones and computers connected to the internet at home or at the office.
2. Mini WiFi Access Point
Connect your R1 to a router, hub, or any available internet access with cable, and R1 can turn cabled internet access into wireless. This is the default operation mode of R1.
3. High Speed USB Charger
Using a USB cable, connect your mobile device to the R1 to charge it. Android phones, iPhones, and tablets are supported.
4. Bitcoin Mining Host
The R1 can also be used as a controller to manage and run several AntMiner U3s. Connecting your U3 to the AntRouter R1 via a USB hub eliminates the need to keep the U3 plugged into your computer.
