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.

Ya, anda boleh naik taraf kelajuan Internet anda. Tapi, turun taraf kelajuan tidak dibenarkan.
