The whole house coverage of WiFi has become the lowest goal of home networking. In short, every room must have high-quality WiFi network coverage, and there should be no jam or weak signal. But from a practical point of view, many families are still in a state of "make do". Due to deployment mistakes or limited conditions, the current routers cannot support whole-house WiFi coverage. Home networking wants to achieve whole-house WiFi coverage, usually by mesh networking, AP panel or power cat. What scenarios are these three networking methods suitable for? Today we are going to share this networking strategy with you.

mesh networking

For friends who live in large flats and flat floors, one wireless router obviously cannot cover all the rooms. If you want to achieve whole-house WiFi coverage, building a mesh network is the most popular choice at the moment. Now the mainstream wireless router brands on the market have basically supported the mesh function. Different from traditional relay technology, mesh networking products allow sub-routers to freely connect to the main route automatically, and the expanded network rate will not be halved. The whole network is like a honeycomb, easy to use and no need to worry about WiFi signal.

The use of the mesh network is also very simple. As long as the user is within the signal range of the main router, power on the sub-router and simply set it or press the button on the fuselage to automatically expand the home WiFi coverage. The sub-router will automatically connect to the main router and perform wireless network expansion. The most important thing is that the expansion of this wireless network looks like a wireless relay, but it will never halve the network speed. 

panel ap

For the networking method of panel AP, it is recommended that users start from the decoration. In the water and electricity transformation stage of the decoration, the network wiring is very important. The general practice is to set up a weak current box at the entrance of the home network, and then deploy the network cable from the weak current box to each room, leave a network port for each room, and deploy a panel-type AP. In this way, whether it is a computer, etc., through wired Internet access, or directly connected to the WiFi signal emitted by the panel-type ap, it is convenient for the branch.

Power cat networking

If there are many walls in the home and no network cables are deployed during the decoration, then the power cat can also be used to achieve the goal of WiFi coverage throughout the house.

The working principle of the power cat is also very simple. It will convert the wires in the home into network cables. As long as the power cat is deployed in the circuit system under the same meter, the network can be easily expanded.
