Unboxing & Setup & App Feature Demo
How a Mesh Wi-Fi Network works
A typical home Wi-Fi network has a traditional WiFi router that connects to your modem Given by your ISP ( Internet Service Provider ). Your router then broadcasts a wireless signal but as the distance increases the Performance gets low.
And in order to get uniform WiFi Coverage and Good Performance, A Mesh Wi-Fi System is Needed. In Mesh WiFi System we still have a Router ( Main/Master – Router) Connected to your modem, but it also has Add On nodes — that communicate with your router and other Nodes ( In case of using more Add On Nodes).
While doing so, these nodes expand your Wi-Fi coverage throughout a larger area and eliminate your Low WiFi Performance Spots and give you Good WiFi Coverage throughout your House.
Connectivity
The range on the Zyxel Multy X was pretty good, I was easily getting my full internet speed at 5 GHz WiFi band. , So I placed my router on the ground floor, when I was close to my router I got around 200 Mbps of speed and when I was at the 1st floor I got the speed of around 100+ Mbps. Which is a fantastic improvement over my normal router that gave around 30-40 Mbps of speed?
