Home is where the Wi-Fi is, and depending on the age, size and layout of your home, signals might not reach all corners. That's a common problem, which is why mesh networks have started to catch on in a big way. By deploying a base station and "mesh points," you can greatly improve connectivity.
And guess what? You just clicked your way into a chance to win your very own mesh network from the awesome folks at Ubiquiti Networks.
