Sharing your Broadband connection using the wireless approach offers you the freedom to roam around your home/office while being connected to your Broadband / WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network). Wireless is becoming the communication standard within homes. Before you know it, Television, Stereos, Home automation & even white goods will communicate via wireless. Wireless is the way forward in creating your Digital Home.

Technical Overview
Wireless operates on harmless radio waves in the 2.4GHz or 5GHz band. Wireless performance comes in 2 flavours - 11Mbps (802.11b) or 54Mbps (802.11g). 11Mbps wireless is ideal for people who want a cost-effective wireless solution to their Broadband connection while 54Mbps is 5x faster at transmitting data, has better security & is backwards compatible with 11Mbps. We recommend 54Mbps wireless because 11Mbps is being p

Home Network sharing Broadband
Below is an example solution of a shared wireless Broadband network. On the middle floor we have a wireless router connected to the Broadband line. In the same room we have a desktop connected via RJ45 cabling to the back of the router. On the ground floor we have a games consoles connected via RJ45 cabling to a wireless Ethernet bridge talking wirelessly back to the router. On the top floor & outside in the garden we have wireless laptop roaming around talking wirelessly back to the router. When the router is powered on, all these devices will be able to see each other (wired & wirelessly) & access the Broadband connection simultaneously.

Considerations

  • · Wireless Distance - MCS cannot guarantee you wireless distance. Our rule of thumb is these routers are capable of providing a good wireless signal in a modern 5 bed home. If your interior walls are plasterboard then expect the signal to go through about 2-3 walls & if your interior walls are brick then expect the signal to go through about 2 walls within a 15m radius.
  • · Ideal placement for the router is to be centrally located within the home/office. This allows you to get the most out of the wireless signal.
