Frequently asked questions
- Is mesh Wi-Fi better than a single router?
- For larger or multi-storey homes, usually yes, as nodes extend coverage without losing the network name. For smaller flats, a good single router is often enough.
- Do mesh systems slow down your connection?
- Wireless backhaul can reduce speed between nodes, but tri-band systems and wired Ethernet backhaul minimise this and keep performance close to your full line speed.
- Can I use mesh with my existing ISP router?
- Yes, you can connect a mesh system to your broadband router, ideally putting the router into modem or bridge mode to avoid running two overlapping networks.
