The WiFi Extender from Ubiquiti broadcasts a signal on two frequencies. It offers higher speeds compared to single-band extenders and allows the connection of more devices. The 2.4Ghz frequency is the most widespread and, due to its long range, is often congested by neighboring Wi-Fi signals, further complicating device communication. The 5Ghz frequency provides higher speed than 2.4Ghz but is more sensitive to obstacles (e.g., walls) that reduce its range. This difference, along with its more limited use, helps it to have fewer interferences from other networks. The repeater can offer up to 1750Mbps in total to the devices connected to it. In practice, the actual speed shared among the devices is closer to 300Mbps. For example, a high-definition 4K movie requires about 25Mbps. The speed that each connected device will have depends on the distance, obstacles, how many other devices are connected, how many other networks are in the same area, etc. It is of Wi‑Fi 5 generation, the most widespread Wi-Fi standard, which can meet the needs of most users for now. There is also the next generation, Wi-Fi 6, which offers the ability to connect many more devices to accommodate the ever-increasing number of smart devices in a home.
