Last mile…it matters a lot
WiFi & Bluetooth..the most important
WiFi uses multiple parts of the IEEE 802 protocol family and is designed to interwork seamlessly with its wired sibling Ethernet.
Bluetooth is a replacement for cabling in a variety of personally carried applications in any setting, and also works for fixed location applications such as smart energy functionality in the home (thermostats, etc.).
Above is a bit of technical content from Wikipedia to pay respect the two of the most important technologies used heavily day in and day out.
Last mile…
I have been using both WiFi and Bluetooth for many many years and I think started using WiFi more than a decade ago to move around with laptop a bit more, and which is the topic of this article.
WiFi gives the last mile connectivity of our devise (basically us) to the router placed near by. Most of the routers use at home is got good enough to provide excellent (with all rings super shining) coverage to all parts of the house.
With multiple offices and classrooms happening in the same house in the new ways of working, its always a challenge to find the optimal placement of the router. I have been struggling with this for couple of months as I have been using the traditional single point router.
Coming back to the point of the need of excellent connectivity, under the hood many layers of networking technology is constantly trying to get the data reliably between us and servers. If the connectivity is not good it fails and it repeats until it times out. Each repeat is taking few seconds and those are the precious seconds of our finite life.
So to save precious moments of my life I decided to move on to a mesh based WiFi network at home. We can add more points as the need arises. I started with a router and a point, point is a intelligent assistant too!!
Life is precious..Stay Healthy..Stay Safe..Stay Home..Be Responsible
It will save many many moments of my life and those of others when we are in constant conference calls and they get excellent audio and I get excellent audio..win..win..
Those precious moments can be used very well,
