New Technology Gadgets

MU-MIMO

High performance Wi-Fi running four streams for the fastest 11ac Wave 2 speeds. High efficiency MU-MIMO (Multiple User - Multiple Input Multiple Output) technology serves multiple devices simultaneously instead of one at a time, for better performance and efficiency on networks with multiple devices.

 

Smart Wi-Fi with Seamless Roaming

Traditional Wi-Fi is setup with a router and extender, and a separate network (SSID) for each. But as you move around your home – especially upstairs or downstairs – your Wi-Fi device will usually still remain connected to the original weaker Wi-Fi signal with lower performance. A Wi-Fi roaming network (with a single SSID) will automatically detect and switch your device to the best available Wi-Fi signal for a more natural, seamless experience and exceptional Wi-Fi wherever you roam.

Log in to your work/school network remotely or avoid geoblocking, protect privacy on public Wi-Fi and bypass Internet censorship.

Home Users: Avoid regional restrictions and access geoblocked content such as Netflix or iPlayer from anywhere. Ensure your privacy and anonymity online and defeat censorship and other location-based content restrictions. You can also remotely access your home network when you’re away, and use your encrypted VPN for security when out and about using potentially unsafe public Wi-Fi hotspots.

Small Office Users: Enable your employees to access company resources remotely such as email, documents saved on the company server and any programs/systems when they are outside the office.
