In these times of working from home, online learning, not to mention the usual streaming and gaming, WiFi connections can be less than reliable.
Ok we've all probably seen WIFI repeaters, extenders and boosters on sale from many suppliers, prices range from £15 or so upwards. So on face value they seem to offer the perfect solution to poor wifi signals. The claim they make is simple, they allow you to access WiFi in areas of your home that's out of reach because of interference due to walls or other objects.
But wait WiFi repeaters can often cause more trouble than they are worth.
The reasons why they can be more trouble than they are worth can get quite complex. Often wifi repeaters create a second instance of your wifi network meaning when you move around the house your device needs to jump connections, this can often result in a temporary loss of signal. Quite frustrating if you are having a Zoom call!
Another problem with wifi boosters is that they cannot always be linked to one another. This means if you need to get wifi signal at the top of the garden you can't expect the extenders to connect together to create an ultra long connection.
If you are reading this and thinking, "I really don't care about why WIFI boosters don't work too well I just want a brilliant wifi boosting solution", then here you go.
The solution is have a WiFi access point installed instead.
Unlike WIFI boosters and access point is a wired connection, this means it is hard wired to your broadband router. This means the connection is constant and you can have multiple access points all meshed together.
This means you can have 100% WIFI signal in the bedroom, living room, at the top of the garden or in the garage. The same WIFI connection strength that you would get if you are sat right next to the main router.
Plus if you wanted to you can also connect via a network cable at any WIFI access point dotted around the home, resulting in the veyr fastest speeds your router can achieve.
