Adding a mini disk

Gazump — Thu, 26 May 2022 22:22:46 GMT

Just got a home hub 2.
It’s at the front of the house but I would like better wifi at the back.
I was looking at a mini disc. Can I just by one and that links to my hub?

@Gazump,

Thank you for posting and it's good to see you back in the Community.

Your best bet would be Complete WiFi, which uses Wifi disks to extend your Smart Hub 2's signal all around the house.

Thanks,

Paddy

@GazumpNot really the white discs are intended to effectively replace the hub with one connected to the hub by ethernet with the WiFi turned off in the hub and another (or more) being used remotely.

If you use black discs you can use just one as there does not need to be one connected to the hub.

I have not used the terms whole home and complete wifi as it is so easy to confuse the two and the discs are not compatible with each other.
