What is Mesh WiFi?
We’ve all been there - you’re trying to watch a movie on your favourite streaming service, but all of a sudden you’re faced with a spinning buffering wheel that prevents you from being able to watch the movie in peace. It’s a nightmare, and it all stems from one issue: poor WiFi connections. You’re likely to encounter buffering, failures to load, and other issues related to slow internet speeds when you’re further away from your router or in one of your home’s ‘not-spots’ - these are often found in the areas that have lots of disturbance being caused due to architecture, electronic devices, and microwaves all interfering with your broadband signal.
Explaining Mesh WiFi
Mesh WiFi networks are a new and intuitive solution to these problems, helping you to create a more reliable and effective broadband network across your entire home. Through the use of a main mesh router and additional nodes that are placed in various areas of your home, you’ll have access to fantastic home broadband in every room. This means that you will be able to eradicate ‘not-spots’ around your home so that you can connect anywhere at any time.
Your router will be set up as usual, but the additional nodes spread around the household will work with your home’s architectural design to provide a blanket of WiFi connectivity throughout your home. This mesh WiFi system is also entirely customisable to your own specific needs too - if you feel there are specific rooms that are struggling to find strong broadband connections, you can place your additional satellites in those rooms; by the same extension, you can also add or remove these additional nodes as you see fit to ensure that you have the perfect network to service your home.
Whole home WiFi is exactly what it says on the tin: WiFi that provides service to your entire home, not just the areas your router reaches. Perhaps the most intelligent feature that this system offers is the seamless connectivity as you roam around the household. With a router and range extender, you’ll be forced to connect to different devices in order to ensure that you have the best connection available in that area of your home - with a mesh network, you seamlessly move between nodes, giving you the best broadband possible no matter where you are within your home. This will mean that you’re getting 100% out of your WiFi mesh network wherever you are rather than losing part of the speed by transferring the signal from router to range extender. The easiest way to set up an additional node in a Mesh network is by buying a repeater - such as the Fritz! Repeater 3000.
Integrating a home mesh network into your household has a range of benefits relating to increased quality, but it also has an impact on things further than that. This faster, more reliable broadband connection can enable you to work from home with confidence when required, which can add a little more flexibility to help you improve your work/life balance. Home mesh WiFi can also allow you to get more from the internet too - if you’re a gamer, you can try your hand at streaming, or for those with an interest in making videos and blogs, you’ll be able to upload to your website, YouTube and Instagram in no time with home mesh WiFi.

Average speeds are based on the download speeds of at least 50% of customers at peak time (8pm to 10pm) across the network. Speed can be affected by a range of technical and environmental factors. The speed you receive may be lower or higher than that listed above. FTTP / Full Fibre speeds are estimated due to insufficient data. FTTP only covers 2% of UK premises.
