Do you have a smart hub for your rural home internet? Is the performance of your smart hub not up to your expectations? Look no further than Allcan’s smart hub improvement solution.
With remote work and distanced schooling becoming the ‘new normal’, reliable home internet is more important than ever. Where previously users could make do with poor connections, now they need to connect multiple devices for streaming, video chats, and calling. Connection to the internet has become vital for our ability to get things done.
Many rural internet users may have gone to their internet provider and received a smart hub. A Smart Hub is an easy, out-of-the-box home Wi-Fi solution that you can install in minutes. It utilizes the carrier’s cellular network to provide fixed high speed internet access to rural households. These hubs usually come with a rate plan, and two-year fixed term which you carry a device balance throughout. However, out of the box, these devices are not optimized for best performance. That is where Allcan’s Smart Hub Antenna package comes in.
In order to optimize your Smart Hub, Allcan suggests that you install an external antenna attached to your smart hub. Through installing an antenna you can strengthen your signal and reduce any potential RF interference.
RF interference is how we describe anything that hinders the internet signal’s ability to get into your home. When this happens we usually point to dense or reflective building materials or things like interference from local electronics. One of the best ways to mitigate signal interference and strengthen your signal connection is by connecting an antenna to your smart hub device. Once configured properly, this allows the smart hub to hone in on signal sources, and draw it directly to your device.
By adding an external antenna, not only are you gaining signal strength, you are:
- Increasing Connection Speed
- Getting the Most Value Out of Your Internet Plan
