Review on Meshforce M1 Mesh WiFi System, Ultimate Whole Home WiFi Performance, WiFi Router Replacement, Maximum Wireless Coverage for 6+ Rooms, Easy Setup, Parental Control (3 Pack) by Derrick Bellando

I'm a big techie and I like smart home features, security and of course WiFi in my house. I have a lot of media enabled devices and I'm concerned my WiFi signal might not be as good as it should be as all smart home devices, phones/tablets are always on the move and walls are thicker than usual I seem to have in my house (combination of stucco and drywall). I suppose a range extender would be my solution. no It allowed WiFi to reach a greater distance, but I had to switch to a new hotspot when I got close enough to the extender. Enter MESH. In a mesh network, you set up the first access point and then add other points where you need coverage, all with the same WiFi name (SSID). The network detects what is connected and assigns the device the best band/speed that the device can operate on (2.4 GHz or 5 GHz). If you have WiFi dead zones or places with slower speeds than you'd like, get a mesh now! and backyard. The kit includes two grid points, two power supplies, an Ethernet cable, and instructions. Everything in a handy little package, both in terms of the packaging material and the actual grid points. setup and installation. Installation was incredibly easy. Unzip the grid dots and download the application. Connect the main network point to your modem (I tested it by plugging it into an Ethernet port on my existing router for testing purposes). Launch the app, connect to the common WiFi name associated with the mesh point (below), rename the SSID and add the security password. Additional grid points are easier because you basically just have to connect them! Perfomance. To be honest I didn't know what to expect. I have a grid point in my living room and one in my bedroom. These seem to be the best places for my living space and garden at the moment. I used speed test apps and a WiFi analyzer to test speeds in multiple locations around my house, front yard and back yard. There was a noticeable increase in signal strength in every room of the house, and the Speedtest app confirmed this with an increase in download bandwidth in all areas (basically, the stronger the signal, the closer to the internet speed you're paying for ). The M1 contains only one 100 Mbit/s Ethernet port. So if you're paying for Internet > 100Mbps, use the M3's mesh system for the extra connection speed. Edge locations were in every corner of my property where before I had little to no signal, now I have signal strength and speed to stay on WIFI and connect to cellular signal (which happened before Mesh). It really helps in streaming videos or music when playing with the kids or hanging around the campfire. It looks like the devices could also use the wired transport setup, which should allow the devices to talk to each other over a wired connection and save WiFi signal bandwidth for your wireless devices (will be tested soon). When my worst case speed went from <5Mbps to over 50Mbps, I was glad I bought this mesh system!
