There’s nothing quite like FaceTiming a friend who lives a few suburbs over or sitting on a work call at home and having your Wi-Fi repeatedly drop out. If you’re anything like us, you may be wondering why all the other Sydneysiders on the call don’t seem to be having the same problem as you. Well, where you live might be having more of an impact than you realise.
Wi-Fi speeds across Sydney can differ greatly, meaning the suburb or street you live in may be affecting your at-home connection. If you’ve ever found yourself struggling with getting your Wi-Fi to reach different parts of your house or finding yourself with a slower connection in certain parts of the house, you’ll want to keep reading. While your address may affect your connection, eero can help extend the connection you do have throughout your entire home. According to NBN Co analysis of over 700 Australian households, 92% of in-home internet setups have room for improvement but only 20% of NBN customers have upgraded to a newer Wi-Fi router.

Now that you’ve checked for your suburb, what else can you do?
Once you’ve checked your suburb’s connection, you’re better placed to figure out exactly how to make the most of your connection at home. Enter eero: a mesh Wi-Fi system that uses multiple eero devices working together to extend your connection evenly around your home, so you’re not relying on a single router to reach every corner. Even if you’ve got the best NBN connection possible, if your router isn’t capable of unlocking the Mbps you have available you won’t get to reach those top speeds.
And if you’re still waiting to be connected to FTTP or similar, while eero can’t make a slow NBN connection faster, it can help you get fast, reliable, and secure Wi-Fi from the connection you already have. It also keeps your home on one network and eliminates dead spots and more importantly, it means your connection is working as efficiently as possible – regardless of where you live.
