There's always something new to discover, and more TV shows and movies are added every month. The more you watch, the better Netflix gets at recommending TV shows and movies you’ll love.

Teknologi Mesh Wi-Fi menguatkan liputan Wi-Fi di rumah anda dan dapat menyingkirkan hampir semua "dead spot" Wi-Fi. Walaubagaimanapun, seperti semua teknologi, ada had yang harus anda ketahui.

Sambungan unit Mesh kepada router Wi-Fi dikendalikan secara automatik antara router Wi-Fi dan unit Mesh selepas ia mengira kedudukannya, router Wi-Fi dan unit Mesh di sekelilingnya (jika ada) telah disambungkan kepada router Wi-Fi.

Jika anda memasang mesh sendiri di rumah anda, kami sarankan anda untuk sentiasa sambungkan unit Mesh dengan router Wi-Fi sahaja, tanpa mengira berapa unit Mesh di rumah anda.

Adalah dinasihatkan, sekiranya anda mempunyai Mesh yang disambung ke Mesh yang lain, kelajuan Wi-Fi tidak optimum berbanding Mesh yang disambungkan secara terus ke router Wi-Fi. Tambahan sambungan (juga dirujuk sebagai bilangan "hop") di antara peranti anda kepada router Wi-Fi akan mengurangkan bandwidth dan mengakibatkan kelambatan sambungan.
