Choosing the Right Broadband Device
Your broadband speed is only as good as the equipment delivering it. Even with a fast fibre connection, an outdated router can bottleneck your speeds and leave parts of your home without reliable WiFi. Upgrading your router is often the simplest way to improve your broadband experience.
For larger homes or buildings with thick walls, a WiFi booster or mesh system can extend your coverage to every room. If you need internet on the go, a MiFi device provides a portable hotspot using the mobile network, while a broadband dongle plugs straight into a single laptop — cheaper, but it connects one device rather than several. Our guides above compare the best options currently available in Ireland, with pricing and recommendations for different budgets.
