Thus, if a point of the house we are seeing Netflix and another by simply reading emails, assign more bandwidth where needed, in this case, where we are enjoying a series or film.
Google says Google WiFi point smoothly covers a house of 140 square meters, while a pack of three of these routers would help ensure good coverage in homes of up to 418 square meters.
