Yimaphi amanethiwekhi we-Mesh futhi uwafanele nini?

Ukuxhumeka kwe-WiFi sekuyinto ejwayelekile uma kukhulunywa ngokuxhuma ku-inthanethi. Ukunethezeka kokusetshenziswa ngokungafanele kunqunyelwe kukhebuli, ukwenziwa ngcono kwamadivayisi angenazintambo ngokuya ngezinga lokuhlanganisa nekhwalithi yesiginali futhi ukwanda okucacayo kwenani lamadivayisi akhona ekhaya axhunywe kwi-inthanethi kudume lolu xhumo olungenazintambo okwenza kube okuhlukile namuhla ukuba nokuthile okuxhunywe ku-router ngekhebula.

Kodwa-ke, futhi futhi kungumsuka wezinhlungu eziningi zekhanda ngoba ama-routers abahlinzeki bethu be-intanethi abasinikeza wona bavame ukuba sezingeni eliphakathi (ezimweni ezinhle kakhulu) nezinkinga zokuxhuma, isivinini sokulanda esiphansi noma amabala amnyama lapho amanethiwekhi we-WiFi angafinyeleli khona zivame kakhulu. Muva nje amanethiwekhi we-Mesh avela njengesixazululo sakho konke ukugula, futhi abakhiqizi babheja kakhulu kulobu buchwepheshe, kodwa ayini amanethiwekhi we-Mesh? Zisebenza kanjani? Kufanelekile nini ukuzisebenzisa? Sichaza konke ngezansi.

Mesh noma anezikhala amanethiwekhi

Amanethiwekhi we-Mesh (anezikhala uma sihumushela olimini lwesi-Spanish) akuyona into entsha. Zisetshenziswe ezikhungweni ezinkulu ezinjengezitolo kanye nezibhedlela iminyaka, kepha manje sekungukuqala ukufinyelela emakhaya ngenxa yemikhiqizo eyinhloko yokubheja kuzo. Umqondo oyisisekelo ulula kakhulu: usabalalise amadivayisi amaningi endlini yonke ngendlela yokuthi wakhe i- "mesh" ekwazi ukunikeza ukufakwa kwe-WiFi kuwo wonke amakhona, kwakha inethiwekhi eyodwa kungakhathalekile ukuthi iyiphi indawo esisebenzisayo.

Abenzi basinikeza amaKits ngama-routers amaningana (noma ama-node) esiwasabalalisa azungeze indlu ezindaweni ezinamasu wokufeza ukumbozwa okuphezulu okungu-100% kobuso. Elinye lalawo maqhubu lixhuma ku-router enkulu elisinikeza i-intanethi, kanti amanye abekwe ezindaweni ezahlukahlukene ukumboza indlu yonke. Okwenziwa yilaba bokugcina ukuphinda isiginali ye-WiFi yokuqala bese ngaleyo ndlela bandise ukumbozwa. Kepha into ebalulekile kumanethiwekhi we-Mesh ukuthi ayikho i-router eyinhloko kanye nokuphinda okuningana, yize kunjalo ngempela, kodwa konke kusebenza ngokuziphatha njengedivayisi efanayo ngokungabi ne-oda lokulandelana njengoba kwenzeka ngezinye izinhlelo ezifanayo.

Ukulula kokusetha, lokho kuyisihluthulelo

Abasebenzisi abaningi bazocabanga ukuthi "lokhu akuyona nje i-router eyinhloko enezindawo eziningi zokuxhumana ezingenantambo ezixhunywe kwinethiwekhi," futhi baqinisile. Umqondo awukude nalokho ongafinyelelwa ngamanye amadivayisi "ajwayelekile" kepha ukhiye walezi zinhlelo ze-Mesh kulula ukumiswa. Umenzi usithengisela ikhithi ephelele (enganwetshwa kamuva ngokuthenga imikhiqizo ngazinye) futhi engalungiswa ngemizuzu embalwa ngaphandle kwesidingo solwazi lwekhompyutha.

Inqubo yokusetha inezinyathelo ezimbalwa kakhulu:

• Xhuma i-node eyinhloko (noma i-router) kumzila womhlinzeki wakho we-inthanethi
• Xhuma amanye ama-node ezindaweni ezinamasu ukuze indawo yonke imbozwe
• Vula uhlelo lokusebenza oluhambisanayo kuselula yakho ukuze ukucushwa kube okuzenzakalelayo.

Ngemuva kwakho konke lokhu, kuya ngomkhiqizi ngamunye, kungahle kube nezinketho ezahlukahlukene zokumisa ukusungula okuncamelayo ngakunye, kodwa ngalezi zinyathelo ezintathu uzobe usuvele uthokozela inethiwekhi ye-WiFi kulo lonke ikhaya lakho ngaphandle kwezinkinga zokumboza.

Amadivayisi amaningi, inethiwekhi eyodwa

Olunye ukhiye kumanethiwekhi we-Mesh yilokho manje usungabeka wonke ama-node owafunayo, uzohlala unenethiwekhi eyodwa ozoyixhuma kunoma yikuphi lapho ukhona ekhaya. Ngaphandle kweqiniso lokuthi iningi lemikhiqizo oyithola emakethe inezincazelo ezithuthuke kakhulu njengokuhambisana ne-WiFi-ac kanye ne-dual band (2,4 ne-5GHz), uma uzokwenza uzobona inethiwekhi eyodwa lapho zizobheka khona zonke xhuma amakhompyutha akho, ama-Smartphones, amaphilisi, njll futhi lokho kuhle, empeleni kuhle kakhulu.

Imvamisa kukhona amadivayisi ahambelana nebhendi ye-5GHz, amanye amadala noma aphansi kakhulu axhumeka kuphela kumanethiwekhi we-2.4GHz, noma kwesinye isikhathi ikhwalithi yesiginali enikezwa yinethiwekhi ye-2.4GHz ingcono kune-5GHz futhi yingakho unentshisekelo ukuxhuma kangcono kokuqala kunokwesibili. Umphumela uba ukuthi ngezinhlelo ezijwayelekile kufanele ushintshe ngesandla inethiwekhi oxhunywe kuyo ukuthola imiphumela emihle kakhulu. Lokhu akwenzeki ngamanethiwekhi we-Mesh, ngoba kunenethiwekhi eyodwa vo isistimu ezoxhuma ngokuzenzakalela kusiginali esezingeni eliphakeme futhi ngeke kudingeke ukuthi ushintshe okuthile kwi-iPhone noma kwi-iPad yakho.

Futhi futhi abaningi benu bazothi "kodwa ngikwazi ukukwenza lokho ngabaphindayo abaningi be-WiFi kanye nomzila wami wokuphila konke." Impendulo ithi "Yebo kodwa cha." Kuyiqiniso ukuthi abanye abaphindayo be-WiFi bangabamba inethiwekhi enkulu futhi kubonakala sengathi kunenethiwekhi eyodwa kuphela ekhaya, kepha lokhu kuba nezinkinga ezikhathini eziningi futhi nginikeza isibonelo esisebenzayo. Unomzila omkhulu egumbini lokuphumula futhi ophindayo onenethiwekhi eyakhiwe ekhishini. Ekhishini uxhunywe kunethiwekhi ophindaphindwayo akunikeza yona, kepha uma ubuyela egumbini lokuphumula, kuvela ukuthi uyabona ukuthi isithonjana se-WiFi ku-iPhone yakho sisezingeni eliphansi yize siseduze komzila omkhulu. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi i-iPhone yakho ayikayikhiphi inethiwekhi yasekhishini ukuyothatha leyo esegumbini lokuphumula, ngoba ayinqanyuliwe ngoba isenayo imininingwane. Ikhwalithi yesiginali ayiyona ehamba phambili, noma ijubane, kepha isaxhunywe ekhishini.

Lokho akwenzeki ngencazelo kumanethiwekhi we-Mesh. Amadivayisi akho azohlala exhunywe kunethiwekhi yekhwalithi engcono kakhulu, ngoba uhlelo luphethe ukuphatha ukuthi imaphi amadivayisi oxhuma kuwo ngokuzenzakalela. Izinketho zokumisa ezinye zikuvumela ukuthi wenze ngokwezifiso lesi sici futhi usungule indawo ethile njengeyona ebaluleke kakhulu, imvamisa leyo exhunywe ku-router eyinhloko, kepha lokhu sekuvele kungakhethwa futhi kuncike kokuncamelayo nezidingo zomsebenzisi ngamunye.

Akusona isixazululo osifunayo ngaso sonke isikhathi

Njengoba ukwazi ukubona, amanethiwekhi we-Mesh abukeka njengesixazululo esifanele wonke umuntu, kepha iqiniso ukuthi akunjalo. Noma okungenani, ayifanele kakhulu kuzo zonke izikhathi. Izixazululo ezahlukahlukene esinikezwa abakhiqizi zihlala zibiza kakhulu uma ziqhathaniswa nezinye ezingahle futhi zilungele icala lakho, ngakho-ke Ngaphambi kokukhipha u- € 300 noma ngaphezulu, okuyinani abajwayele ukuba nalo, kufanele ucabange ukuthi kufanele yini ngempela, ngoba kwesinye isikhathi awudingi ukuphakama lokho. Uma indlu yakho inkulu, ukwakheka kwezindonga zakho kuvimbela ukudluliswa okuhle kwesiginali yakho ye-WiFi, noma indawo ye-router yakho kungenzeka ingabi efanele kakhulu ngenxa yezimo ezahlukahlukene, inethiwekhi ye-Mesh ingaba yisixazululo osifunayo, kodwa kunezinye izikhathi lapho ungakhetha khona izinketho ezingabizi kakhulu.

Indawo ye-router ibalulekile futhi ingathuthukisa ukumbozwa kwe-WiFi yakho ngaphandle kokwenza utshalomali kwezomnotho. Kuyalulekwa ngaso sonke isikhathi ukuthi uyibeke maphakathi nekhaya, noma usondele kakhulu esikhungweni ngangokunokwenzeka. Uma kungenzeka lokho, unganqikazi ukukusebenzisa, ngoba ekhaya elijwayelekile ngosayizi ovame ukuba ngaphezu kokwanele ukuthi ube nerutha enhle, ebekwe kahle. Kubalulekile futhi ukuthi uyibeke endaweni lapho ingenazo izithiyo ezivimbela isignali ukuthi isakaze kahle kuyo yonke indlu.

Uma kwenzeka ukuthi ngaphandle kwalezi zincomo ungatholi ukumbozwa okwanele futhi kunendawo emnyama lapho i-WiFi ingafinyeleli khona, Ezimweni eziningi, indawo evamile yokufinyelela i-WiFi, ngaphandle kwesidingo sokuthi ibe yi-Mesh, ingaphezu kokwanele. Enye yezingqinamba ezinkulu zabaphindayo "abajwayelekile" yilokhu esesikushilo ukuthi kwesinye isikhathi ama-smartphones ethu awashintshi indawo yokungena kahle futhi lokhu kusho ukuthi kufanele ushintshe inethiwekhi ngesandla, kepha lokhu akuyona inkinga uma idivayisi ilungisiwe endaweni eyodwa. Uma okufunayo ukuxhuma i-Apple TV ekhishini noma ikhompiyutha egumbini lokulala lapho i-WiFi ingafinyeleli kahle khona, izoxhuma kunethiwekhi futhi ngeke inyakaze, ngakho-ke la manethiwekhi wokuzulazula nokushintsha izinkinga ngeke abathinte .

Izinketho eziyinhloko ziyatholakala
