Access points are brilliant devices in that they boost LAN capability and extend the current wireless coverage. With an access point linked, you can increase the number of users connected to the internet across your network.
We all want a powerful internet connection across our wireless devices, but sometimes this just isn’t possible with the current equipment you have in place. For whatever reason it is that your Wi-Fi signal is struggling, an access point could help to give your connection the boost it needs.
Types of Access Points
Managed Wireless
DrayTek’s range of managed wireless access points makes controlling access simple. Their central management system makes controlling multi-level connections and separate guest and business networks precise, efficient, and simple.
Mesh Wireless
With mesh wireless access points you will be able to create a unified connected network that allows you to efficiently handle multiple DrayTek access points at once, even across multi-story buildings.
Outdoor Access Points
This robust range of access points can withstand all conditions to allow you to access your internet beyond your direct working environment.
