Choosing a modem/router does not need to be a daunting task. There are a few things that you need to consider that will help you make the right decision and ensure that your internet connection performs well throughout your whole house. These include:
size and material of the building
large and/or two-storey dwellings generally need a stronger Wi-Fi signal to reach around the whole house. Houses with lots of walls, particularly brick walls, also require a strong Wi-Fi signal from your modem/router.
number of devices connecting simultaneously
Is your whole family online at the same time? If so, you need a device that can handle and prioritise that traffic to ensure a seamless experience for everyone.
What you are doing online
If you are streaming videos, gaming online or uploading and downloading large files, you will need a device that can support these activities with strong Wi-Fi and multiple channels. Some devices allow you to also monitor your network and prioritise certain devices to ensure a smooth experience.
We have made the below recommendations on modem/routers that, in our experience, provide what you need:
gawo lolowera | wapakatikati | mathero akulu |
NETGEAR R6020 or R6120 TP-Link Archer C50 or C54 or C64 or C6 or A6 TP-Link Archer C60 |
NETGEAR R6220 TP-Link Archer VR600 TP-Link Archer C80 or A8 TP-Link Archer AX10 or AX500 or AX20 or AX23 ASUS RT-AC68U ASUS RT-1500UHP |
TP-Link Archer AX50 or AX53 or AX55 TP-Link AX 72 or AX73 TP-Link AX6000 or AX90 ASUS RT-AC88U Chithunzi cha ASUS RT-AX58U |
ZOFUNIKA - if your MATE plan includes an nbn home phone (VoIP) service, you will require a modem/router with a VoIP/voice port. See some options for this below:
gawo lolowera | wapakatikati | mathero akulu |
TP-Link VR200v NetComm NF10WV | TP-Link Archer-VR600v D-Link DVA-2800 | TP-Link VR2800v |
Mesh Wi-Fi routers
If you require even stronger Wi-Fi to cover a wider area of your home, then we would strongly recommend a Mesh Wi-Fi router system. These devices consist of a main router that connects directly to your nbnTM equipment, and a series of modules placed around your house for full Wi-Fi coverage. All Mesh products form part of a single wireless network and share the same wireless name and password, unlike traditional Wi-Fi routers.
Please see below a list of quality Wi-Fi Mesh Routers that we recommend using with your internet service:
- TP-Link Deco
- NETGEAR Orbi
These products can be purchased from electronics stores such as JB Hi-Fi, Harvey Norman and Officeworks or online retailers such as Amazon.com.au and come in a range of different options, depending on the size of your home.
