How To Extend Your Wi-Fi Outdoors
It's great to be able to seamlessly connect to your Wi-Fi devices throughout your home, but frustration often starts the moment you try to connect your Wi-Fi network to a device outside. You can move your router as close to your yard as you can, but that won't always solve the problem. With the increasing number of outdoor smart devices like lighting, security cameras and grills, you need to be able to extend your Wi-Fi beyond your home's exterior walls. It can be tricky, but with the right system you'll be streaming video by the pool and posting pics to social media in the yard in no time. Our Mesh Wi-Fi units may be the answer.

Smart Grills - Whether you prefer to cook with electric, wood pellets, charcoal, or gas, there are now Wi-Fi grills that make it possible to BBQ while you cut the grass, watch the game, or take a nap. Wireless contact with your grill allows you to raise and lower the temperature and receive alerts when your food is ready.
