The Smart Home WiFi System is a whole home WiFi booster, that includes several access points to cover a large area. They are affordable and ideal for those looking to cover a large space using a broadband single connection. The small nodes have a minimalist, matte style and don’t take up a lot of space within the home.
What really sets the Smart Home WiFi System apart from other wifi boosters on the market, is the affordable price. Although there are cheaper broadband extenders out there, they only extend your connection slightly and can cause a significant drop in speeds.
Whereas the Smart Home WiFi System create a standalone wifi system. There are nodes that come with each system, which can be placed across your home. It allows you to seamlessly swap between access points as you wander around our home. Whereas with wifi extenders, the connection would disconnect and reconnect from one network to the other.
The setup is quick and easy! If you have any issues please contact our support team to talk you through the setup.
