Intelligent, Stable, Reliable – Your WiFi Mesh System Thinks Along
A smart WiFi Mesh System like the Cudy M1300 works intelligently in the background so you can concentrate on what matters. The mesh points exchange their status in real-time to always route data traffic via the least congested path. Should a disruption occur, the system automatically establishes new connections – for maximum stability and an uninterrupted connection. That's the power of Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac), optimized for your modern home.
