From the end of 2023, many Movistar users with a Smart WiFi 6 Go router can enjoy EasyMesh. Now, what exactly is it and why does it improve the wireless connection of your home’s WiFi. This standard, which is included in the operator’s most recent router models, offers a series of features, which we are going to see in great detail.
That the wireless connection of your router does not reach all corners of your house equally is a headache that EasyMesh can put an end to. And all thanks to the fact that this standard is one of the most used options to put an end to this problem, since it allows users to set up a Mesh network.
It must be taken into account that the Spanish operator has already opted to provide this compatibility to its most recent routers. In addition, it not only managed to improve the network capacity of its users, but it works with WiFi 4 and 5, in addition to WiFi 6 and 6E.
Why it is good for WiFi
At the end of last year, Movistar’s most modern routers achieved compatibility with the EasyMeash standard. A protocol that obtained this name from the WiFi Alliance itself. And basically, it is the one that occurs in those devices that do comply with the MAP, Multi-AP or IEEE 1905.1 specifications.
But what role exactly does this standard play? When setting up a mesh network at home to bring the connection to each room, the key to EasyMesh is that everything works without problems. For this reason, it must be taken into account that this standard ensures that both the nodes and the controller work at the same time. And even if several WiFi points are installed in the home, the truth is that only the same connection will appear. In this way, the network name, encryption and password are shared.
Therefore, when you connect to that network, even if you only see one connection, behind it is an elaborate network in which different devices are involved. And most importantly, if you use your cell phone around your house, it will connect to another repeater without affecting the signal.
Another advantage of this WiFi Alliance standard is that it is available from different manufacturers. What does this mean? Well, it makes it easy for users to buy different devices in order to create their own mesh network at a low cost if you want. As long as they are compatible with EasyMesh. Although each manufacturer may have its own protocol, this standard is one that almost all brands share.
So not only does it improve wireless signal coverage at home, but it makes it easier than ever to set up a Mesh network at home. So, if it is compatible with this standard, you no longer have to worry about the brand or model you are going to buy. In this way, it not only increases the ease of connection for users, but also comfort.
