Wi-Fi is everywhere in our homes… until it’s not — sometimes we have dead-spots or slow-spots. Heading down the path of extenders and repeaters to plug those holes usually ends in headache.
The past year has introduced a variety of new wireless network options, including mesh networks, and this means choosing a router is a different experience than it used to be!
Dave Hamilton will walk through what you need and why, so that you can make the best decision for your own home or workspace.
Dave will discuss:
- How to choose a router in 2017
- What technologies/features matter for you
- What "mesh" means and whether or not you need it
- Which router is right for you… and why
- How to set it up for optimal success
