Maybe you’ve heard about Google Wifi, and perhaps something about mesh networking, but you’re still not quite certain why you should be all that bothered about the router system. We’re here to explain exactly what’s different about Google Wifi compared to your average router , and why you should be excited concerning its imminent arrival.   First of all, the basics.  The idea of Google Wifi is to provide multiple devices which hook up together to ensure better wireless coverage across your home. One of the router devices – they’re all identical compact little white cylinders – connects to your DSL or cable modem as normal, and the others are strategically placed elsewhere around your home, connecting wirelessly to this first unit, and ensuring a strong ...

Samsung’s disastrous battery issues have invalidated the praise we have heaped upon its beautifully designed, but fatally flawed smartphone. We leave this review up as testament to almost-was history, but have removed the score in light of the events. We do not recommend you purchase the Note 7, even if you're able to find it in stock.
