In order to have a good Internet speed, it is necessary to take into account certain factors. One of them is that the coverage is optimal when we connect wirelessly. It is also important to have a good router, network card and a computer with sufficient capacity. However, sometimes we cannot connect well and problems appear. In this article we are going to explain how PLCs help you to have a better Internet.
PLCs help to have a better connection
Think, for example, when you need to connect from a room where the Internet coverage is very weak. You do not have a cable installation and the only way to connect is through Wi-Fi. It does not matter if it is a television, a mobile or a computer, you always have speed problems or continuous cuts.
PLC devices will help to improve the connection in this case. You will be able to connect both wirelessly and by cable. How do they work? They are basically two devices connected to each other through electrical wiring. You are going to place one of them connected to the router and also to a wall outlet. The other, in the room where you need to have connection connected to a socket.
In this way they will carry the Internet connection from one place to another through electrical wiring. You will be able to have Internet in that area where the connection was very limited or did not arrive at all. Now you can connect that television, mobile or computer with which you had problems, without cuts appearing.
Not only will they help to have a better connection, with higher speed, but sometimes they will even take the Internet to places where it is otherwise impossible. For example, in another plant where there is no coverage and you do not have an Ethernet cable installed.
Browse by cable and Wi-Fi
One of the positive points of PLC devices is that they allow you to navigate both by cable and by Wi-Fi. You will be able to connect your devices wirelessly and thus not have to link the PLC with that device through an Ethernet cable. Very useful for the Internet of Things, since we have more and more devices connected to the network.
But you will also be able to connect devices by cable if you need maximum stability. For example, you can connect a television, game console or computer directly to the PLC via an Ethernet cable. You will lose much less capacity than if you connect through a Wi-Fi repeater, for example.
However, to be able to navigate both by cable and Wi-Fi, you must acquire PLC devices that work well. There are many options and not all of them will have both a cable option and a Wi-Fi option. In addition, you should pay attention to aspects such as the synchronization speed in order to have optimal performance.
In short, as you have seen, PLC devices are very interesting to be able to improve the Internet connection. It is sometimes necessary to be able to connect to the network from areas where coverage is null or very weak.
