How do I get my Wi-Fi to reach the back porch?
We’ve all been there: You’ve been rocking out to a playlist that’s streaming on your phone, then you walk to the backyard and the music sputters and stops. Or maybe you have a “dead spot” in the guest bedroom on the second floor and can’t understand why your internet connection is so dodgy there. A weak Wi-Fi connection can be troublesome, but FTC has a solution for you.
In your home, an internet signal is delivered via a cable connected to a small box called a gateway — aka a router. The proper location of your router accompanied with a strong Wi-Fi signal is the key to expanding the reach of your internet connection throughout the home.
Wait, what are mesh access points?
With Premium Wi-Fi, FTC deploys additional “mesh” access points (APs) that, if needed, work seamlessly with your Wi-Fi gateway to expand your coverage and maximize your internet speed. This is basically a series of small wireless devices that FTC strategically places in different rooms in your home. These wireless mesh access points communicate with the router and provide you with a strong Wi-Fi signal and expanded coverage. In other words, mesh allows you to automatically connect from AP to AP as you move through the home, meaning you always get the strongest possible connection — even if you’re in a room located far from the main router.
If a channel or frequency gets too crowded — such as when you have too many devices connecting at once — your device will automatically be switched to a different frequency through what’s called band steering.
