The Wi-Fi works until the day everyone needs it at once. Read on: it takes a few minutes and could save you a lot more than that. **In this guide you will see:** - Wi-Fi 6 and gigabit ports. - Central, high placement. - Mesh or access point for large homes. Quick answer To use a 100 Mbps plan fully on Wi-Fi, choose a Wi-Fi 6 router with gigabit ports, place it centrally and high, and add mesh or an access point for a large or multi-storey home. Wired devices should use Ethernet. Power the router and the fibre box on a UPS so outages do not cut you off.
