Wifi routers are definitely needed anywhere in this generation, with people depending already with the internet: their jobs, school works, online meetings and the like. Thus, Google launches its own Wifi Mesh Router System that has been told to be one of its successful launches.

Google Launches "Google Wifi" Now Available For Regular Sales Since Last Tuesday

Technology has become so advanced these days that some companies have managed to transform routers from being a practical computer hardware to design systems that can be placed at the luxury of one's home. Using more than just one wireless access is called a mesh system, which is intended to fix issues that are encountered by a traditional router, like dead zone issues that could cause the loss of an internet connection. Now, Google has recently entered into the mesh system, following the Eero, Netgear and other startups as well that has launched their router devices known as the Google Wifi.

It can be recalled that Google has already launched a router system previously, prior to the new one they have recently launched now. That one was called OnHub, which took three years for them to make and boils down the traditional router system. Google Wifi is also cheaper compared to its competitors, costing $299 as a three pack and sold individually for $129. The packing depends on the range that the router covers, with the three-pack being able to cover a ground of 4,500 sq. ft. while the individual unit covers 1,500 sq. ft. If the consumer has any interest in covering more ground, there can be additional units added depending on the area.

Review On Google Wifi: Similar Issues With Rival Companies

 The Google Wifi does not contain a modem, only has two Ethernet ports and is compatible only with its Google stable mates, such as OnHub once the Wifi is turned off and other modem or router devices are being connected to it. Just like any other routers that exist right now, it still deals with the same problems, with the connection not going up as far as they had intended especially in another level of the structure. Nevertheless, it has more or less the same internet speed with other products and can be bought at a slightly cheaper price.
