The Right Solution to Your WiFi Problems Regardless of the Home Types

WiFi obstructions come from concrete/brick floors and walls, as well as other electric appliances that emit radio signals. AiMesh WiFi solves these problems by creating a network where all routers communicate with each other all the time, ensuring smooth and reliable whole-home WiFi with a variety of great networking features.

It’s nice to have just one WiFi network name, even though I have multiple routers, and my devices seamlessly switch from one router to another when I move around the house. All of my devices are connected to the 5GHz channel and reach the maximum speeds from my ISP (200 Mbps downloads/20 Mbps uploads). With my AiMesh system, I can enjoy smooth video streaming at 190 Mbps speeds anywhere in my home.

I definitely think it’s made a massive improvement. We cam now actually get on the internet in my daughter’s room. We can have Netflix in there, whereas before we couldn’t even pick up a bar of the signal. You would sit down in the lounge room and three of us will be sitting on different devices, watching Netflix, playing on Facebook or interactive games. And no problem at all, it’s working perfectly.

Some Tips to Create Your Stable WiFi System

The location of each AiMesh router impacts WiFi performance throughout your home, so careful placement is important. Fortunately, it’s also easy. Here are a few tips to help

  • Primary router and nodes are too far from each other
  • Obstacles (walls, furniture) are blocking the connection between routers
  • Spread routers evenly across the floor so every corner of your home can be covered. The optimal distance between routers is about 10–15 meters.
  • Whenever possible, provide a clear line of sight (no obstacles) between AiMesh routers, ensuring the best possible connection between them can provide better connections to your devices.
  • WiFi connections can hardly be delivered from the main router to the top floor due to the gap from the first through second floors.
  • Make sure each hub can receive and transmit a WiFi signal from the previous to the next hub for smooth WiFi to the farthest corner of the home.
  • A stairway is an ideal place in a multi-story home to relay the WiFi signal to another floor.
  • Keep your AiMesh hubs away from interference sources, such as microwave ovens, large metal objects and other wireless signal sources.

Disclaimer:

  1. Actual data throughput and WiFi coverage will vary from network conditions and environmental factors, including the volume of network traffic, building material and construction, and network overhead, result in lower actual data throughput and wireless coverage.
  2. Seamless roaming may depend on the specification of mobile devices.
  3. DSL and LTE WiFi modem routers that support AiMesh technology are only capable of working as AiMesh primary router, not AiMesh node.
  4. For your router's full model name, please check the sticker at the back of your router.
