understanding wired vs wireless

wirless connections (standard wi-fi)

  • best for: standard, everyday internet use of browsing and casual streaming where super-high speeds aren't as essential 

  • setup: simply use your apartment’s built-in Wi-Fi 

  • use 5GHz band if available—it’s faster than the default 2.4GHz.

 

wired connections

  • best for: gaming, streaming, and longer video calls.

  • how to connect: use a CAT5 or CAT6 Ethernet cable from your device to the Ethernet port or the in-unit hub.

  • no setup required -- just plug in and go!
