Working From Home

The home network finally got an upgrade. The uplink from the house is a 1G/1G fiber connection with Hiper as ISP. Wifi was running of a Google Wifi (1gen) network with 3 nodes in a network. It worked, but with Wifi being somewhat aged no device on wifi would be able to utilize the full bandwidth :(

This is just a brief post on the plan, the equipment and the future plans for this new Ubiquiti network.

It seems a lot of people have already written a lot on the etiquette of video meetings, so in this little post, I’ll try to contribute with some of the technical tips which doesn’t seem to be covered as much.

Network connection

While wifi seem to work fine mostly, it can cause issues. If you have the option to use a wired connection for you device used for videomeetings, do so. It will have less latency then any wifi-connection and improve the experience.
