Seamless Wi-Fi in Marbella

1. Technologies evolve – seamless Wi-Fi in and around the room.

At home you want to relax and don’t think about the consumption of Internet traffic, so the mobile Internet 3g/4g in the phone or tablet is not suitable for use at home – respectively, coming home your devices switching from the mobile Internet to home Wi-Fi. In large apartments, multi-level apartments or houses the complexity of the coverage of Wi-Fi network of the entire premises. Usually, the problem is solved by installing repeaters, additional antennas, and additional Wi-Fi routers. This requires an investment of time and money, but does not give a quality result and does not guarantee 100% coverage of the room. The presence of a repeater or additional routers of a Wi-Fi network, albeit with the same name, which leads to the fact that your device is constantly changing between networks – at the time of switching you lose connection, the call via WhatsApp, Skype is interrupted. Also, the interruption of the connection affects to download files, viewing a video stream.

The solution of the problem has already been invented and presented on the market. The idea is roaming between Wi-Fi access points. To do this, use special equipment and knowledge in setting up this equipment.

2. New level of comfort

Do not think about the problem, be a user, enjoy comfort, be confident in the system – free your head from having to think where you are, where you can go, and that if an important call is interrupted … Now, coming to your house, you can’t think about it and concentrate on the important. The equipment will constantly adjust to your location and the device you are using. If the device supports the 5Ghz communication standard, the system will automatically transfer it to a channel with a higher data transfer rate. You just have to use high-quality connection and enjoy uninterrupted Wi-Fi connection.

3. Save your time and nervous

As practice shows, saving on equipment at the initial stage gives large expenses in the future.

We are compared two customers.

a) Used typical way – I connected the Internet from the provider and installed repeaters and additional routers

At the first stage, he is purchased 2 routers – 80 euros per each, 3 repeaters 40 euros per each and that equipment costs amounted to 280 euros. For setting the purchased equipment, the client gave about 150 euros. Total costs amounted to 430 euros.

Communication in the house was, but constantly interrupted, the speed was low and unstable, but being in a room and not moving around the house – it was possible to use the Internet.

After 4 months, the client lost Internet connection, the provider did work with the equipment and all the settings were lost. As a result, all repeaters and routers either stopped distributing Internet in the house. A specialist was called in, whose task was to find the cause of the problem and fix it. The specialist found out that the provider’s router was reset to the factory settings, the Wi-Fi network changed the name and the password was changed, the network settings changed. It will require reconfiguration of all devices. And this is a time-consuming task – the work on reconfiguration required the cost of another 100 euros and two days of life without the Internet.

Total costs 530euros, decent work of the Internet, a bunch of devices sticking out of the sockets and the constant risk of recurring problems with reconfiguring the network.

b) He approached the solution of the issue competently and turned to us

After analyzing the architecture of the building, it was decided to install 4 Edimax access points that covered the whole dwelling, plus a garage room. The cost of equipment, installation and configuration of the system amounted to 1 300 euros. The engineer made a cable installation in the cable channels, equipment for power supply and Internet access to the access points was installed in the electrical panel. After setting up the Wi-Fi network, the testing was done – the coverage is full, the speed is stable, there is no interruption of communication between the floors, there is no connection with the operator’s equipment (when changing the operator, the Wi-Fi is automatically reconfigured and continues to work). In total, in one day, the equipment, which guarantees long-term stable work and does not require additional costs, is professionally and aesthetically installed and configured?

4. Right manufacturer

We studied the market, bought samples, tested products from different manufacturers. And we are ready to establish the best option for you.

• There are low-cost manufacturers of household products on the market, claiming seamless (Roaming between access points), but their equipment has no components for real roaming. Household access points operating autonomously from each other will force the client to perform a full authorization cycle when moving from one point to another. This is fraught with serious delays in the transmission of useful traffic, communication breaks, and loss of important information.
• Low cost, but centralized systems (Mikrotik, UniFi) are possible and will provide seamless roaming, but this depends on the implementation. For example, although UniFi has a “controller”, it serves only for the general configuration of a set of access points with one interface, and at least until now the access points continue to work autonomously and do not help roaming.
• There are expensive and professional solutions that require the installation of expensive server-driven equipment. Enterprise-class wireless systems (Juniper, Cisco, Aruba, etc.) were originally designed to support seamless roaming; first of all they implement innovations like 802.11r on them. But you have to pay for it, and often a lot.

We found a manufacturer of corporate equipment in the middle price segment, which manufactures equipment adapted for use both in residential buildings, hotels, and in office buildings. The solution from Edimax specializes in seamless Wi-Fi and has equipment and software solutions that allow you to organize real and high-quality seamless Wi-Fi without using an additional server; one of the installed access points manages the network, which saves the budget for network deployment.

5. Beautiful – aesthetic appearance

In recent years, compact, beautiful and aesthetic devices have been strongly developed. But there is a problem that beautiful devices often have poor stuffing. Edimax was able to make it beautiful and practical. They released an elegant access point Edimax CAP1750, which has a powerful filling and which is not ashamed to hang on the ceiling or on the wall.

6. Security of private data

The equipment that we install is not tied to the operator, and is under your control.
Operators install universal equipment, as a rule, hiding the manufacturer’s name and model – no one asks you what type of router to install. The task of the equipment installed by the operator is to provide at least some acceptable Wi-Fi coverage, in order not to waste time on each client, the installed equipment is under the total control of the operator and you do not have the ability to control it. The operator, without your knowledge, can update the firmware in your own router; get access to your personal data.

Unlike the equipment that operators install, we offer equipment for specific conditions, after installation we configure it, give you a password and no longer have access to the installed equipment; it is under your control, not operator control.

7. Investments are relevant in the next 5 years.

The 2.4 GHz band is becoming increasingly busy due to the ubiquity of wireless networks.

The 5 GHz range is also under threat of overload. According to the forecasts of the Wi-Fi Alliance and ABI Research, by 2020 almost 100% of Wi-Fi devices will use 5 GHz.

By 2019, IT giants have promised to release devices with support for 6 GHz, and the IEEE plans to include 6 GHz in the 802.11ax specification. In addition, IEEE experts hope that by 2023, Wi-Fi will be available on these frequencies with increased bandwidth.

So, buying equipment that supports the frequency of 5 GHz – you can rest assured that in the next 5 years your equipment will be more than relevant on the market.

Already today you can see changes in technologies that will change the concept of speed and convenience in the next 5-10 years. In October 2018, the Wi-Fi Alliance announced changes in the labeling of Wi-Fi data transfer technologies. These changes will be gradually introduced into life and will fully manifest themselves no earlier than after 5 years.
