[Hidden-tech] Networking pro

[Donald M Stevens]

Good afternoon Mark,

I would like to discuss this with you off line.
I have experience with the t-mobile wifi for my own use.
I have also setup Large office building to get a more consistent wireless signal throughout.

Mesh is a good idea - I use UniFi - https://ui.com/us/en/wifi
I have about 4 of them spread around the house and garage - they are tied into my physical network in about 2 spots
Note: I have a group of servers and NAS boxes for the work I do, so it's probably more than most need.

You'd need a hub from the best working router in your location.
If you get someone to do the wiring, I have a box of at least a few 100 ft I'd like to pass on
you'd need to add the wire jacks (or get someone to add those) - I have the tools to do all that.
The wire is a bit old - no idea on the life time - I can say the runs that came from that box are working fine.

Good luck - Rich

Mark,



What about a Mesh Network? I have an Asus and a couple of iMesh and it works great. That said, nothing beats a hardwired computer/device. If you have the wall access, go for it. If you build your own cables (slight learning curve) you can save a lot of money if you need a lot of feet of cable.

Do you have anyone to recommend to rewire our house for more consistent internet service?



It seems I consistently get frustrated dealing with it all the time. I'm thinking of just spending the money to do it right. Ethernet directly to my Mac and my wife's computer. Consistent Wifi for certain other areas like for streaming content upstairs and downstairs. Probably would need a plan and involve snaking some cable. Do it once properly and forget it. I need real network engineering to get it all right. Part of it may be that we are using T-Mobile home internet now. Connection is spotty sometimes. I need a consistent 2.5ghz band for our new SimpliSafe system's camera. We have a bunch of devices that frequently go awry: Ooma IP phone, SimpliSafe, printer, Roomba etc.



Mark
