What Is a Mesh WiFi System
A mesh system uses two or more devices (nodes) to blanket your entire home with WiFi.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Central Node | Connects to your modem (like a normal router) |
| Satellite Nodes | Placed around your home to extend the signal |
| Seamless Roaming | Your phone or laptop auto-connects to the best signal as you move |
| Single Network Name | All nodes share one SSID so you don’t need to switch manually |
Mesh vs WiFi Extender
| Feature | Mesh WiFi | Traditional Extender |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | Higher and more stable | Often slower and less reliable |
| Roaming | Seamless (auto-switching) | Manual or delayed switching |
| Setup | Simple with app | May require manual configuration |
| Network Name | Single SSID | Often creates a second network |
