Expanding the Starlink WiFi range
Extending Reach and Eliminating Dead Zones
The solution? A strategically placed Ubiquiti Access Point (AP).
Ubiquiti Networks is renowned for producing high-performance, enterprise-grade networking equipment that is also increasingly popular for home use due to its reliability and scalability. Unlike simple WiFi extenders that often halve bandwidth and create separate networks, a Ubiquiti AP integrates seamlessly with the existing network infrastructure, creating a unified and robust wireless experience.
In this particular installation, the Cornwall WiFi Services team identified the optimal location for the Ubiquiti AP – The downstairs front room. This strategic placement was crucial to maximize signal coverage and overlap effectively with the router's existing WiFi.
The installation process involved running a single Ethernet cable from the Starlink router to the AP's location, mounting the AP discreetly. Once powered on and configured through Ubiquiti's intuitive management interface, the new access point broadcasted a strong and consistent WiFi signal throughout the previously underserved areas.
The Impact was Immediate and Significant:
Elimination of Dead Zones: Areas that once suffered from no or weak signal, such as the AV room, now enjoyed full and reliable WiFi coverage.
Improved Signal Strength: Devices connecting through the Ubiquiti AP experienced a significantly stronger and more stable signal, leading to faster speeds and reduced latency.
Seamless Roaming: Unlike traditional extenders, the Ubiquiti AP allowed devices to seamlessly roam between the router's WiFi and the AP's signal without requiring manual reconnection or experiencing dropped connections. This created a truly unified wireless experience throughout the house.
Increased Network Capacity: By offloading some of the wireless traffic from the main router, the Ubiquiti AP helped to improve the overall capacity and performance of the entire network, especially when multiple devices were in use simultaneously. This meant smoother streaming, faster downloads, and lag-free online gaming for everyone in the household.
Future-Proofing: The Ubiquiti AP provided a scalable solution. Should the homeowners need to further extend their WiFi coverage in the future (e.g., to an outbuilding), additional Ubiquiti APs could be easily added to the network and managed through the same central interface.
In conclusion, the installation of a Ubiquiti Access Point proved to be a game-changer for this home in [mention the area in Cornwall again]. It effectively addressed the limitations of the existing router, expanded WiFi coverage to every corner of the property, and provided a seamless, reliable, and high-performance wireless experience for the entire household. This case highlights the power of strategically implemented professional-grade networking equipment in transforming home connectivity.
