Network Speed

Custer

I have noticed that my Network speed increases from 72Mbps to 433Mbps when I have Box 2 connected alongside my provider ZyXEL ADSL Router. How does that happen? What technology does Box 2 have that can improve speed that dramatically? Thanks in advance for your reply.

Hi Custer, the difference in speed might be due to the fact that your ZyXEL router only broadcasts WiFi on 2.4 Ghz, as apposed to BOX which broadcasts both 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz by using the same SSID(WiFi name).

 

With BOX, devices that support only 2.4 Ghz, will automatically connect to this WiFi and devices which support 5 Ghz, will connect to this one.
