Nearly everyone has the NBN at home but are you getting the full potential out of it? Your home internet is usually heavily affected by how many wireless devices you are using. Are you using more than three wireless devices at once? Because of this your internet speed could be significantly decreased by the wireless capacity of your modem. There are multiple solutions to this, below are the main two solutions.
Multiple wireless routers
One solution is to have more than one wireless router, this can achieve by having a hardwired connection between two or more wireless modems and configuring them to work on the one wireless network. One benefit of this is you will be a stronger WIFI signal throughout the entire household decreasing black spots and the other benefit is the ability for the wireless devices to share which router they are connected to.
Hard wired connection
Installing hard wired cabling throughout the house is the best way to get the full potential out of the NBN connection. It will free up the wireless network to allow a faster connection for mobile devices and provide a more reliable and faster NBN connection to the hardwired devices. Hard wired connections can be run to some of the following equipment:
- Smart TV’s
- Laptops
- Computers
- Gaming Consoles
- Streaming boxes
- Some printers
- Smart home hubs
