Nitko ne može poreći opsežnu ovisnost milenijalaca o tehnologiji i internetu^(Internet) . Potrebna vam je ispravna internetska veza^{(Internet Connection)} kako biste mogli obavljati svakodnevne poslove. Međutim, ponekad WiFi nije dovoljno prikladan da svima u uredu pruži brzu i pouzdanu internetsku vezu^{(Internet Connection)} . Dakle, traže ili WiFi Extender ili Repeater kako bi proširili maksimalni domet WiFi -a . U ovom članku o WiFi Extenderima^{(WiFi Extender)} i WiFi repetitorima^{(WiFi Repeaters)} vidjet ćemo koji je bolji za vas.

Što je Wi-Fi Repeater?

WiFi Repeater se koristi za proširenje dometa vašeg WiFi -a . Morate ga priključiti u područje slabog mrežnog prijema i pokrenuti uređaj. Njegov rad je prilično jednostavan, kao što ime govori, WiFi Repeater , ponavlja signal koji dolazi s WiFi mreže^(WiFi) . Povezuje se na WiFi kako bi emitirao svoj signal pretvarajući veliki opseg.

WiFi Repeateri^{(WiFi Repeater)} nisu ništa drugo nego usmjerivač koji se povezuje s primarnim usmjerivačem, onim spojenim na Ethernet , hvata njegov signal, a zatim ga šalje u više dijelova u blizini. Dakle, ako imate puno WiFi Repeatera^{(WiFi Repeater)} spojenih na jedan WiFi , dobit ćete slabiju propusnost. Stoga to uvijek trebamo imati na umu.

Što je Wi-Fi Extender?

Sasvim očito iz samog naziva, WiFi Extender je uređaj koji se koristi za proširenje dometa vaše WiFi mreže. Postoje dvije vrste WiFi Extendera^{(WiFi Extenders)} , bežični i žičani. Ekstenderi su bili ožičeni, ali čak ni oni nisu usvojili bežične trendove. Prilikom postavljanja WiFi Extendera^{(WiFi Extenders)} , morate biti sigurni da se nalazi u prostoriji u kojoj se nalazi primarni usmjerivač. Kada se postavljanje završi, možete premjestiti uređaj kamo god želite.

WiFi Extenderi^(Extender) se obično koriste za postizanje mrtvih zona vašeg doma i ureda. Jedna stvar koju uvijek morate biti sigurni, veza između vašeg usmjerivača^(Router) i ekstendera^(Extender) trebala bi biti dobra, inače ćete vidjeti pad mreže i loš prijem.

WiFi Extender vs WiFi Repeater

Da, i WiFi Extenderi^(Extenders) i WiFi Repeateri^{(WiFi Repeaters)} koriste se za poboljšanje dosega vaše mreže. Međutim, djeluju drugačije. WiFi Extender povezuje se s primarnom mrežom i stvara novu. Dok^(Whereas) , WiFi Repeaters reemituje postojeću mrežu.

Problem s WiFi Repeaterom^{(WiFi Repeater)} je što ih može lako ometati vanjski izvor signala, na primjer, električni tok koji stvara vaš inverter ili hladnjak^{(Refrigerator)} . S druge strane, WiFi Extenderi^{(WiFi Extenders)} , posebno oni žičani, nisu pod utjecajem bilo kakvih smetnji.

Koja je razlika između WiFi Extender i WiFi Repeater ?

Osim što rade, oba ova uređaja imaju neke ključne razlike koje mogu diktirati vašu odluku. Dakle, pogledat ćemo ih i vidjeti koji je za nas.

• Budući da WiFi Extenderi^{(WiFi Extenders)} stvaraju novu bežičnu pristupnu točku, pouzdaniji su od WiFi Repeatera^{(WiFi Repeater)} .
• WiFi repetitore^(Repeaters) je lakše instalirati od ekstendera. Budući da su Repeateri^(Repeaters) plug-and-play uređaji, ne morate biti kompjuterski štreber da biste ih instalirali, dok je za instalaciju WiFi Extendera potrebno malo više tehničkog znanja.
• WiFi Extenderi^{(WiFi Extenders)} daju pouzdaniji i brži internet od repetitora^(Repeaters) .

Ovo su bile neke ključne razlike koje vam mogu pomoći u određivanju najboljeg uređaja za vas. Međutim, to nije to, razgovarat ćemo o nekim pitanjima koja bi mogla imati.

Jesu li WiFI Extenderi^{(Are WiFI Extenders)} i WiFi Repeateri^{(WiFi Repeaters)} vrijedni toga?

Jedan od najvećih razloga zašto se određeni proizvod prodaje je marketing. Netko se može zapitati, jesu li WiFi Extenderi^{(WiFi Extenders)} i WiFi Repeateri^{(WiFi Repeaters)} vrijedni toga ili je to samo pametan marketing.

Dobro! odgovor nije tako lak kao što mislite da jest. Da! WiFi ekstenderi^(Extenders) i repetitori^(Repeaters) povećavaju doseg vašeg signala, ali nisu za svakoga. Ako vaš WiFi signal ne doseže svaki kut vašeg doma, možda biste trebali isprobati neke od stvari navedenih u nastavku prije nego što potrošite svoj novac na vanjski uređaj.

• Provjerite brzinu interneta^(Internet) i provjerite trebate li nazvati svog ISP -a . Ookla možete koristiti sa speedtest.net .
• Provjerite^(Make) da vaš uređaj nije izložen elektromagnetskim ili radiofrekvencijskim (RF) smetnjama^{(Electromagnetic or Radio-frequency(RF) interference)} . To se obično može dogoditi zbog mikrovalne pećnice^(Microwave) , hladnjaka, ukrasnih svjetala, invertera itd.
• WiFi valovi ne mogu prodrijeti kroz cigle. Dakle, morate postaviti svoj WiFi na mjesto koje je jednako udaljeno od svih potrebnih zona.

Ako ste sve to učinili, a još uvijek se suočavate sa sporim internetom, pokušajte riješiti problem tako što ćete napraviti neke izmjene u postavkama.

Sada, ako nakon svega ovoga, problem i dalje postoji, možete kupiti WiFi Extendere^(Extenders) ili Repetitore^(Repeaters) s gore navedenim detaljima.

Trebam li odabrati 2,4 GHz ili 5 GHz?

Možda želite znati koji je bolji, 2,4 GHz ili 5 GHz. Češće nego ne, 5 GHz je bolje od 2,4 GHz. Problem s 2.4GHz je što ih ima previše. Budući da se većina uređaja temelji na ovoj frekvenciji, smetnja uzrokuje mnogo smetnji koje ponekad mogu smanjiti propusnost.

5 GHz, s druge strane, ima jedno upozorenje i može biti nešto što može diktirati vašu odluku. Prema zakonima fizike, frekvencija je obrnuto proporcionalna valnoj duljini. Dakle, 5GHz ima kraću valnu duljinu i stoga ne može prodrijeti u cigle, zidove, metale i druge stvari.

Smanjuju li WiFi Extenderi^{(WiFi Extenders)} i WiFI Repeates brzinu ^{(WiFI Repeates)}interneta^(Internet) ?

Da budem vrlo iskren, da, WiFi repetitori^{(WiFi Repeaters)} i ekstenderi^(Extenders) smanjuju brzinu interneta . ^(Internet)Ali neki su gori od drugih.

Govoreći o WiFi repetitorima^{(WiFi Repeaters)} , postoje dvije vrste njih. Jednopojasni repetitori^(Repeaters) imaju jedan pojas, tako da moraju primati i odašiljati signal na jedinom pojasu koji ima. Dakle, može smanjiti 50% ukupne propusnosti.

Postoji još jedna vrsta WiFi repetitora^{(WiFi Repeaters)} - Dual-radio. Oni primaju signal s donjeg kanala, a zatim ih reemitiraju s gornjim kanalom.

Stoga morate biti sigurni da idete na dvopojasne WiFi repetitore^(Repeaters) jer oni smanjuju propusnost, ali rezultat nije tako pogoršavajući kao u prethodnom slučaju.

Što je WiFi Booster?

Postoji još jedno ime na tržištu koje ste možda čuli dok ste tražili uređaj za proširenje vašeg WiFi dometa. WiFi Booster je pojam koji se daje za WiFi Repeater i WiFi Extender , zajedno.

Koliko su sigurni WiFi ekstenderi^{(WiFi Extenders)} ili repetitori^(Repeaters) ?

Ako ste skeptični u pogledu sigurnosti WiFi ekstendera^{(WiFi Extenders)} ili repetitora^(Repeaters) , nemojte biti. Sigurni su kao i svaki drugi WiFi , možete konfigurirati sigurnosne protokole kao što su WEP , WPA , WPA2 itd. Dakle, ako mislite da je vaš WiFi siguran, možete vjerovati da vam ovi uređaji neće uzrokovati nikakve sigurnosne probleme .

Koji bih trebao odabrati za WiFi Extender ili WiFi Repeater ?

Ova odluka ovisi o vašim potrebama. Ako imate zabavu uz bazen, na koju WiFi signali ne dopiru i želite uređaj koji će vam pomoći u reprodukciji vaše Spotify popisa za reprodukciju putem interneta^(Internet) , odaberite WiFi Repeater^{(WiFi Repeater)} . Dakle, možemo reći da su WiFi Repeateri^{(WiFi Repeater)} dobri ako vam nije potrebna velika propusnost – dok su WiFi Extenderi^{(WiFi Extenders)} najprikladniji za profesionalno okruženje.

Nadamo se da vam je ovaj članak pomogao da donesete pravu odluku.

WiFi Extender vs WiFi Repeater - Which one is better?

Nо оne can deny the extensive dependence of millennials on technology and the Internet. Yoυ need a proper Intеrnet Connection in order to carry your daily chores. However, sometimes a WiFi is not apt еnough to provide evеryone in the office with a fast and reliable Internet Connectiоn. Ѕo, they look for either a WiFi Extender or a Repeater to ѕtrеtch the maximum range of the WiFі. In thiѕ article about WiFi Extenders and WiFi Repeaters, we are going to see which one is better for you.

What is Wi-Fi Repeater?

WiFi Repeater is used to extend the range of your WiFi. You need to plug it in a region of poor network reception and start the machine. Its working is pretty simple, as the name suggests, WiFi Repeater, repeats the signal coming from the WiFi. It connects to the WiFi to broadcasts its signal converting a large circumference.

WiFi Repeaters are nothing but a router that connects with the primary router, the one connected to the Ethernet, catches its signal, and then sends it to more parts of the vicinity. So, if you have a lot of WiFi Repeater connected to a single WiFi, you will get an inferior bandwidth. Therefore, we need to always keep this in mind.

What is a Wi-Fi Extender?

Quite evident from the name itself, WiFi Extender is a device used to extend the range of your WiFi network. There are two types of WiFi Extenders, wireless and wired. Extenders were wired but not even they have adopted the wireless trends. While setting up WiFi Extenders, you need to make sure that it is in the room in which the primary router is. Once the setup is complete, you can move the device wherever you want.

WiFi Extenders are usually used to reach the dead zones of your home and office. One thing you need to always make sure, the connection between your Router and Extender should be good, otherwise, you will see network drops and poor reception.

WiFi Extender vs WiFi Repeater

Yes, both WiFi Extenders and WiFi Repeaters are used to enhance your network reach. However, they work differently. A WiFi Extender connects to the primary network and creates a new one. Whereas, WiFi Repeaters rebroadcasts the existing network.

The problem with WiFi Repeater is that they can be easily interfered with by an external source of signal, for example, electric flux created by your Inverter or Refrigerator. On the other hand, WiFi Extenders, especially the wired ones, are not affected by any means of interference.

What is the difference between WiFi Extender and WiFi Repeater?

Apart from their working, both these devices have some key differences that can dictate your decision. So, we will look at them and see which one is for us.

• Since WiFi Extenders create a new wireless access point, they are more reliable than WiFi Repeater.
• WiFi Repeaters are easier to install than Extenders. Since Repeaters are plug-and-play devices, you don’t have to be a computer geek to install them, whereas, WiFi  Extenders requires a bit more technical knowledge to install.
• WiFi Extenders give a more reliable and faster Internet than Repeaters.

These were some key differences that can help you in determining the best device for you. However, that is not it, we will be talking about some questions that you might have.

Are WiFI Extenders and WiFi Repeaters worth it?

One of the biggest reasons why a particular product sells is marketing. One may wonder, are WiFi Extenders and WiFi Repeaters worth it, or is it just clever marketing.

Well! the answer is not as easy as you may think it is. Yes! WiFi Extenders and Repeaters do increase your signal reach but they are not for everyone. If your WiFi signal is not reaching every corner of your home then you may want to try some of the things mentioned below before spending your money on an external device.

• Check your Internet speed and see if you need to make a call to your ISP. You can use Ookla from speedtest.net.
• Make sure your device is not subjected to Electromagnetic or Radio-frequency(RF) interference. This can usually happen because of Microwave, fridge, decorative lights, inverter, etc.
• WiFi waves can not penetrate through bricks. So, you need to place your WiFi at a place that is equidistant from all the required zones.

If you have done all this, and still are facing slow Internet, try fixing the issue by making some alterations in settings.

Now, if after doing all this, the issue persists, you can go and buy WiFi Extenders or Repeaters with the details aforementioned.

Should I go for 2.4GHz or 5GHz?

One may want to know which one is better, 2.4GHz or 5GHz. More often than not, 5GHz is better than 2.4GHz. The issue with 2.4GHz is there are too many of them. Since most devices are based on this frequency, hindrance causes a lot of interference that can sometimes drop the bandwidth.

5GHz, on the other hand, has one caveat and can be something that can dictate your decision. According to the laws of physics, frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength. So, 5GHz has a shorter wavelength and hence it can not penetrate bricks, walls, metals, and other things.

Do WiFi Extenders and WiFI Repeates decrease Internet speed?

To be very honest, yes, WiFi Repeaters and Extenders decrease Internet speed. But they are some worse than others.

Talking about WiFi Repeaters, there are two types of it. Single-Band Repeaters have one band, so, it has to receive and transmits a signal by the only band it has. So, it can reduce 50% of the total bandwidth.

There is another type of WiFi Repeaters – Dual-radios. They receive the signal from the lower channel and then rebroadcast them with the upper channel.

Therefore, you need to make sure that you are going for dual-band WiFi Repeaters as it does decrease bandwidth but the result is not as exacerbating as it was in the former case.

What is WiFi Booster?

There is another name in the market that you may have heard while looking for a device to extend your WiFi range. WiFi Booster is a term that is given to WiFi Repeater and WiFi Extender, collectively.

How secure are WiFi Extenders or Repeaters?

If you are skeptical about the security of WiFi Extenders or Repeaters, don’t be. They are as secure as any other WiFi, you can configure security protocols such as WEP, WPA, WPA2, etc. So, if you think your WiFi is secure then you can believe that these devices are not going to cause any security trouble for you.

Which one should I go for WiFi Extender or WiFi Repeater?

This decision depends on your need. If you have a pool party, where WiFi signals fail to reach and want a device that will help you in playing your Spotify playlist via the Internet, go for WiFi Repeater. So, we can say that WiFi Repeaters are good if you don’t need a sky-high bandwidth – whereas, WiFi Extenders are best suited for a professional environment.

Hopefully, this article has helped you in making the right decision.
