Frequently Asked Questions
Do access points use the same WiFi name?
Yes. Properly configured access points can share the same network name for seamless roaming throughout the property.
Why should I test my speed using a wired Ethernet connection?
Testing with a wired connection helps determine whether slow speeds are caused by broadband supply or internal WiFi distribution. If wired speeds are good but WiFi is slow, the issue is usually signal coverage.
Why do WiFi connections drop out intermittently?
Intermittent drops are usually caused by weak signal strength, interference, or poor router placement. Improving internal network layout resolves most of these issues.
Can WiFi congestion slow down my internet?
Yes. High device usage in households can cause congestion, which is improved by better network distribution.
What causes WiFi interference and how can it be reduced?
Microwaves, cordless phones, Bluetooth devices, thick walls, and neighbouring networks can interfere with WiFi signals. Adjusting router placement and improving network layout helps reduce interference issues.
What is a wired access point?
A wired access point is a device connected directly to your router using Ethernet cabling. It creates a new WiFi signal in another area of your home without the signal loss associated with wireless repeaters.
