The FileHub also has an ethernet port to connect directly to a modem or hotel internet and create your own wireless network. Additionally, as a router it can also be an access point and a wireless bridge giving more options to how you can connect to your network. The router is pretty fast boasting AC Wi-Fi up to 433 Mbps. You can walk up to any modem and plug the Ravpower FileHub into the modem and browse the internet. The Ravpower FileHub is more than just a wireless bridge for hard drives, it is also a router. This makes the FileHub a valuable device for photographers and videographers who need to backup their sd card in the field. This means I will need to pack an extra cable with me.ДЄ nice feature of the FileHub is the button that lets one copy over all the contents of the sd card to a connected external hard drive. The previous model had a usb-c port for charging but for some strange reason Ravpower decided to downgrade to a micro usb port. The FileHub has four ports to it a ethernet jack, usb A to connect external hard drives, an sd card reader, and the unfortunate micro usb port for charging the FileHub. Yes, the iPad converts all images coming off the iPad into jpg which means if I want to backup any RAWs to my cloud account, the files get uploaded as jpgs. The problem with reading the sd card through my iPad is I can transfer all the jpg and RAW files onto the iPad but from there they are stuck, and if I try to transfer a RAW file the iPad will convert it into a jpeg before it copies it to something like cloud storage. Why do you need this workaround? Well, the iPad doesnвЂ™t let you access external hard drives and in my case the only way to read my sd card is through a dongle. This can turn any hard drive into a wireless hard drive, and more importantly into a hard drive the iPad can read and write to. The FileHub main purpose is to be able to connect an sd card or a usb hard drive and then connect to the FileHub through the iPad and access all the content on the external storage devices. The FileHub is not a wireless hard drive like the GNARBOX 2.0 or My Passport Wireless Pro, but instead just a wireless bridge/router.

This way i have a backup of my images/videos even on vacaion and even with a iPhone.This is where the Ravpower FileHub comes in. The RavPower All-In-1 Filehub offers many functions but the important too me is to copy files directly from a SD memorycard to an external harddrive.

But this option is limited to some Android devices but with the iPhone 6s there is no way to do this.Д«ecause iвЂ™m planing to switch with my next smartphone to an iPhone this is a very important aspect and sice the app behaves identically on both systems this solution is an alternative. With a USB-OTG cable this works directly from a smartphone/tablet to a connected harddrive. Maybe you wonder why not using a USB-OTG capable device instaed of copying files over a relativly slow network. Video files with arround 5 GB failed to copy.

Where the app failed is to copy larger files like you get while filming in 4K with the app Filmic Pro or the Lumix G81.

But i copied 320 images (arround 6GB of data) in 8 min.

This works very fine even though copying large RAW files over a wireless network surely is not the fastest. In this example i connected a regular Maxtor 2.5 вЂќ harddrive. With this app it is now possible to copy the contents of a SD card right away to connected hard drive to have a backup.

To really make use of the device you need the app FileHub Plus, which is available both for Android an iOS devcies. On the opposite side there a slot for SD cards and since both of my cameras the Canon 6D MK II and the Lumix G81 use these cards its ideal too me. Besides this there is a USB connector which either can be used to charge another device (Powerbank) or to connect another devices like an external harddrive. The capability to seup a wireless network of your own and share an internet connection for a couple of devices might be very interesting in hotels where you have to pay for the internet connection.ДЄs you can see the devices offers a LAN connector to setup a bridge between the LAN network and a wireless connection.
