The Halo units share one network name and password, so a phone moving through the home attaches itself to the unit with the stronger signal. Smart Connect picks the more suitable band for each device, and beamforming focuses the signal towards distant devices. If one Halo has a problem, the system reroutes data so the network keeps working. The manufacturer says over 100 devices can be connected.
Flats or houses where the router signal does not reach the back rooms. Three gigabit ports on every unit are handy when a TV shares space with a console and a media box. Wi-Fi 5 with app-based setup suits homes that do not need Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 7 speeds.
