They\u2019re called \u201cmesh\u201d systems because of their wireless networks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The main router connects directly to your modem with one or two satellite components called nodes.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/starlinkhow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/1-77.jpg\" alt=\"Close-up shot of an internet modem\" class=\"wp-image-4119\" srcset=\"https:\/\/starlinkhow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/1-77.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/starlinkhow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/1-77-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/starlinkhow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/1-77-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>Close-up shot of an internet modem<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You place these nodes throughout your house, requiring only an electrical connection. This initial set of two or three mesh devices is enough for most people to cover their homes with a strong Wi-Fi signal. If insufficient, you can purchase more nodes and integrate them into the existing mesh network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once configured with your <a href=\"https:\/\/starlinkhow.com\/best-mesh-wi-fi-for-concrete-walls\/#more-3811\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">mesh network<\/a>, you can move from room to room without switching networks and passwords. This is because all mesh devices in a network use the same SSID and password.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"setting-up-a-mesh-network\">Setting up a Mesh Network<\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-many-nodes-do-you-need\">How Many Nodes Do You Need?<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Before installing a WIFI mesh network, determine the number of nodes you need. More nodes mean more coverage, so if you\u2019ve got a large or multilevel home, that\u2019s something to consider. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Get the square footage of the area you want to cover, then calculate how much wireless coverage you\u2019ll need before buying the hardware.

Moreover, your cable modem should have already been set up by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/home-improvement\/internet\/what-is-an-isp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">internet service provider (ISP)<\/a>. You can also use your phone because it is a working internet source.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"positioning-the-nodes\">Positioning the Nodes<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Positioning each node for optimal Wi-Fi coverage is essential to avoid dead zones in your home. The primary router node provides an internet connection to all other mesh nodes. Therefore, you should install it close to an existing router, as it will connect using a LAN cable. Keep the primary router node out in the open, close to an AC wall outlet.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"monitoring-the-networks\">Monitoring the Networks<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>After setting up and positioning the nodes, you can test their performance. Check the internet speed using tools like Ookla or <a href=\"https:\/\/fast.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Fast.com<\/a>. It will help you determine whether or not your network performs at the same speeds as your ISP advertised.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the app, you can introduce parental features, create and control user profiles, and disable internet access at the touch of a button. Moreover, you can automatically disable access at certain times, such as during dinner or bedtime.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fortinet.com\/resources\/cyberglossary\/qos-quality-of-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">QoS (Quality of Service)<\/a> settings, you can regulate bandwidth allocation to where it\u2019s most needed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-create-a-mesh-network-with-two-routers\">How to Create a Mesh Network With Two Routers<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Setting up a home network can be pretty intimidating for tech newbies. The most common way to create a mesh network is by purchasing a dedicated system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But what if you already own two routers? Can you use it to make a mesh network? The answer is yes, and here\u2019s a step-by-step guide on how it works.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-1-connect-your-two-routers\">Step 1: Connect Your Two Routers<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>The first step is to connect your two routers. Make sure both routers have power and are plugged into the wall outlet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, using an Ethernet cable, plug one end into the port labeled \u201cInternet\u201d on router #1 and the other end into any available port on router #2. Ensure the connection does not exceed 320 feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/starlinkhow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/3-75.jpg\" alt=\"Internet connector cable on white background\" class=\"wp-image-4117\" srcset=\"https:\/\/starlinkhow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/3-75.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/starlinkhow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/3-75-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/starlinkhow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/3-75-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>Internet connector cable on white background<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-2-change-router-2-settings\">Step 2: Change Router #2 Settings<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Configure router #2 as an access point instead of its regular routing function. To do this, open your browser and type in the IP address listed on the back of router #2 (it should look something like 192.168.?.?).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> It will bring you to the router settings page. That\u2019s where you can customize different features such as wireless network name (SSID) and password, DHCP settings, port forwarding, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Change the mode from \u201cRouter\u201d to \u201cAccess Point\u201d and save your changes.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-3-configure-router-1-settings\">Step 3: Configure Router #1 Settings<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Go back over to router #1 and make some changes there too. Once again, open your browser and type in the IP address listed on router #1.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you should be able to find various options for configuring how your networks will interact. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That includes enabling DHCP between them so they can share resources like Internet connection, etc., setting up WAN ports, configuring NAT settings, etc., depending on what kind of routers you bought for this setup process.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Select whatever options apply to your particular case and save them accordingly before proceeding.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-4-set-up-wireless-networks\">Step 4: Set Up Wireless Networks<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>To do this, first, select the \u201cWireless Security\u201d option under the Advanced Settings tab. Then select either WPA2-PSK or WPA &amp; WPA2-PSK encryption protocol. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondly, enter the same security key\/passphrase twice \u2013 once while configuring both routers separately \u2013 before saving all the changes you made in this section.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"will-two-wireless-routers-conflict\">Will Two Wireless Routers Conflict?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Keeping two wireless routers at least six channels apart is essential to maintain a strong and reliable connection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If not, the performance of both networks will get compromised. Utilize such tools as an Android Wi-Fi Analyzer app to check which router works in what channel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can manually adjust them for better speed or reliability if needed.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-setup-a-mesh-network-with-old-routers\">How to Setup a Mesh Network With Old Routers<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Start by connecting the two routers with an Ethernet cable. Then go into your settings and configure the two routers&#8217; SSID and Wi-Fi passwords similarly so they can recognize each other&#8217;s signals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, adjust the settings for both the new and old routers. It will allow them to share the same information with all connected devices.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"faqs\"><strong>FAQs<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"can-you-use-a-mesh-router-with-another-router\">Can you use a mesh router with another router?<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Yes, you can, but you won\u2019t get the best features the mesh router offers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"is-mesh-wifi-better\">Is Mesh WiFi Better?<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>If extended coverage is what you\u2019re looking for, then mesh wifi is better. You\u2019ll get rid of coverage black spots in connections.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"does-mesh-reduce-internet-speed\">Does Mesh Reduce Internet Speed?<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Every connection between routers decreases bandwidth by half. The longer the chain of mesh links, the slower the connection from end to end.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"is-mesh-faster-than-internetnbspnbspnbsp\">Is Mesh Faster Than Internet?   <\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Mesh systems improve internet speed by extending coverage. However, wired connections usually work faster than wireless ones.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"conclusion\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Tired of dead spots and slow connections? Invest in a mesh network system. You\u2019ll get flexible coverage for those hard-to-cover areas like hallways or large rooms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They\u2019re easy to install, configure, and maintain, and you can manage them anytime using a phone or tablet.
