Is Your WiFi Feeling the Strain? Let’s Understand Your Home’s Needs

If your internet isn’t as speedy as you’d like, it might be due to the number of devices connected to your network. Our Device Calculator can help you figure out the WiFi capacity your home really needs. NETGEAR offers a variety of routers and Mesh Systems designed to handle different levels of device usage.

Choose the Right Solution for Your Home

    Based on your Device Calculator results, consider these factors when selecting a router:

  • Home Size: Larger Australian homes may benefit from advanced mesh systems to ensure strong WiFi coverage throughout.
  • Future-Proofing: Opt for a router that supports both your current devices and any new ones you might add down the track.
  • Advanced Features: NETGEAR’s WiFi 6, WiFi 7, mesh technologies, and top-notch security features can significantly improve your entire home network.

Q: Will Too Many Devices Slow Down WiFi?

A: Yes, too many devices can slow down your WiFi. Just like a road has a maximum capacity, when too many devices are sharing the same WiFi Channels, they will compete for your WiFi routers signal capacity. More powerful routers or ones using the latest WiFi 7 protocol can help to reduce overall congestion.
