Ešte nikdy nebola rýchlosť WiFi taká dôležitá. Schválne si skúste spočítať, koľko máte doma bezdrôtovo pripojených zariadení. Určite ich nebude málo. A keď k tomu pridáte napríklad požiadavku na pohodlné streamovanie videa, on-line výučbu alebo home office, tak drvivej väčšine routerov dôjde dych. Preto je potrebné WiFi sieť nielen zrýchliť tak, aby zodpovedala štandardu WiFi 802.11ac. Čo všetko takýto štandard dokáže a čím sa líši od starších WiFi generácií?

A device that allows wireless devices to connect to a wired network using Wi-Fi. Access points extend wireless connectivity in buildings or public places.

A device that routes data between a local area network (LAN) and larger networks such as the Internet. It can also provide other functions such as a firewall or VPN.

A router that transmits on two frequency bands, usually 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. This provides greater flexibility and performance as the 5 GHz band is usually less congested and offers faster speeds, while the 2.4 GHz band has better range but can be slower due to interference.

Wi-Fi Protected Setup is a mechanism that makes it easier to connect new devices to secure WiFi networks. It allows users to easily connect to the network without having to enter a complex password. However, it is known to have several security weaknesses.

WPA-PSK is a variant of WPA that allows you to protect your wireless network using a pre-shared password. This password is shared between all devices that have access to the Wi-Fi network. WPA-PSK provides a basic level of security by encrypting communication between devices and accessing the network with a password. While it's not the strongest form of security, it's still an important step in ensuring that your wireless network is protected from unauthorized access.

WPA2-PSK is a modern and strong way to secure a wireless network using a pre-shared password. This password is used for authentication and data encryption between devices connected to the network. WPA2-PSK offers a higher level of security compared to the previous WPA-PSK standard, which means it is much more difficult for unauthorized people to gain access to your wireless network. This type of security is suitable for home and small business networks, ensuring that your data and connections remain safe from potential threats.

The Virtual Server feature on network devices allows you to redirect communication ports from the Internet to specific devices on your local network. This feature is often used for remote access to home, web or game servers or other services that require access from an external network. Virtual Server contributes to security by allowing detailed control over what devices and services are accessible from the Internet.

A VPN, or virtual private network, is a technology that allows secure connections between remote computers or networks over the public internet. VPN functionality on network devices allows encrypted and secure data transmission, protects users from eavesdropping and ensures privacy. VPN is key for remote working, secure access to corporate networks and protection when using public Wi-Fi networks.

QoS, or quality of service, is a feature of network devices that allows network traffic to be prioritized according to the type of service, application, or device. This ensures that important applications such as VoIP (a technology that allows you to make voice calls using a broadband Internet connection instead of traditional or analog phone lines) or online gaming have enough bandwidth and low latency to run smoothly. QoS is key to optimizing network performance, especially in high network load environments.

Print Server is a feature on network devices with a USB port that allows you to share a USB printer so that multiple users can access it from different devices. This eliminates the need to connect the printer directly to a computer and makes it easier to print from different devices without having to physically reconnect the printer.

A DMZ, also known as a demilitarized zone, is a security concept in network devices that allows you to isolate one or more devices from the internal network while leaving them accessible from the Internet. A DMZ is often used to host public services, such as web servers or email servers, while the rest of the network remains protected.

UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) is a set of network protocols that allows devices on a local network to automatically discover and communicate with each other without the need for manual setup by the user. This technology is designed to simplify connectivity and communication between different devices in a home or small office network.

A list of all devices on the network that have been assigned IP addresses by the DHCP server. Allows the network administrator to see what devices are currently connected to the network and what IP addresses have been assigned to them.
