Modem and/or Router

No not unless you want to. If you have not updated your router in the past 3-4 years then it would be wise though. Depending on your home and the number of Internet devices your network supports you may be a candidate for a Mesh Network. If you are unfamiliar with Mesh networking I'd read up on it, you may be an ideal candidate and just don't know it.

Hi Ruppy59,

If you get a new router, you will get improved WiFi speeds, improved WiFi coverage, better WiFi Security, just to name a few.

For good choices, visit this page: Mesh Wi-Fi Networking - All Accessories - Apple. These are the 3rd party units Apple sells, and therefore has trust in.

You can buy them with a specific number of "nodes" to put around your house for WiFi.

Cheers,

Jack
