Signs You Need a Home Network Upgrade
Like many things, the changes can be so minor that we barely notice something’s wrong. Yes, it’s taking longer to download some documents, but hasn’t it always been that way? That spinning wheel on Netflix is standard operating procedure, right? It’s not until it begins affecting the more “serious” aspects of our lives that we notice, like the frozen Zoom feed when we’re on a call with a new client or the security alert we didn’t receive on our smartphone.
Today’s upgraded home network transforms your home’s Wi-Fi experience, ensuring a reliable system no matter how many connected devices you have or how many people are using them. For those with large estates, you can be confident that the internet signals will extend from corner to corner, letting you enjoy your beautiful outdoor area to its fullest.
Why You Need an Enterprise-Grade Home Network
Homes built in the 1960s were usually about 2,000 square feet. Today’s luxury homes might start at 3,000 and easily reach 5,000-plus square feet. These require multiple Wi-Fi access points to provide coverage across your entire property, a standard protocol for an enterprise-grade system.
Enterprise-grade hardware can last up to 30 years without failing and is designed for scalability, growing as technology and your smart home advances. These systems are also designed for businesses, which means they provide the level of security and reliability companies depend on.
Wired and Wireless Solutions
Wi-Fi standards seem to be changing almost yearly. Today’s Wi-Fi 6E brought unmatched speed, reduced congestion, and uninterrupted performance. Lower latency added more responsive interactions, which is particularly important for video conferencing and gaming. It also easily supports more devices simultaneously, which is critical for smart homes. Believe it or not, Wi-Fi 7 was released in early 2024, though compatible devices are still in the works.
While interacting with your network wirelessly is essential to the freedom and flexibility it provides, a wired solution takes the pressure off, reducing any strain on your home network. It’s also where your wireless access points connect.
