What's up guys John here from My Home Tech Review just giving an update
been pretty busy in my life I've been doing a lot of things for work went
around moving around doing some certifications and things so I've been gone for a while so
I apologize for that but you know I said I was gonna make that video for internet
speed and I'm gonna do military things and stuff like that but that video for
internet speed as I walk throughout the house for the Plume Wi-Fi system you're gonna
see how the system retains signal strength and you're gonna see how the
speed goes down but the signal strength stays the same so we're gonna start off
and I'm just going to show you real quick what my system is so right here as
you can see it's a focus here I have the pods plugged in so this white cord right
here is coming from my router and this one is going back to sorry this one's
coming from my modem and this one's going back to my router which then goes
out to my you know hub and all this stuff like that so I'm just going to
show you real quick on the screen here let it focus and we will do a quick test
being next to the main hub it should be at its maximum speed it's going to
achieve I do have broadband internet so it just depends on how many people are
on at the time how fast it's gonna go that's up so maximum with 200 so we'll
see what it gets right here
all right so broadband internet you know I pulling about 158 megabytes
at the moment upload about 23 so my next pods over here in the kitchen so I just
cover in like it's mesh the network type thing so show you where that's at it's
back there in the corner over there just plugged in there so I was standing next
to that one standing next to that one we're going to see what speed is now
so typically with internet your uploads gonna be the same no matter where you
are you know upload doesn't change very much it may vary if I a megabyte here or
two but it's not going to change very much so it's gonna be about the same so
I'll just show you the download speeds and I'll just you know continue on from
there so now we're in the next room and we're in my front living room where I
have another pot underneath the desk so I'll show you that real quick it's down
there back in there so I'll put the phone next to that one and we'll see
what we get now
so if you notice at the top of my phone you see the Wi-Fi bar up there it looks
like that that pizza pie shape it hasn't changed it's been full bars the whole
time so as you can see it given the location to where it's at the internet
speed is dropped okay but I have maintained full signal strength so right
there we're getting about 90 90 megabytes that would save roughly you
know 20 30 feet away from the main router so it's starting to drop so now
I'm gonna come back in the bedroom area
so now we're in my bedroom and I have a pod over here in the corner it's kind of
hidden but it's right down there okay so I'll put the phone down there we're all
stand up here I don't want to bend over down there but we'll do that and I'll
show you the inner speed for here
all right so for my 104 so maybe we got more internet speed at the main router
you know just got a little closer and it appeared most about 104 so it could be
the fact that it's underneath the desk but it's blocking some Wi-Fi signal or
not it just it varies and with the materials and stuff going through walls
and what's there maybe there's an electrical line who knows but now I'm
going in the basement it's kind of dark down here so I'll turn some light on all
right so down here right now I'm standing underneath the kitchen okay so
I don't have a router down here currently because I get signals
throughout the house just because they're close to the floor sorry the
cameras losing focus here there we go now you can see me so right now I was
standing underneath the kitchen so we'll see what we get here
now you notice that my pizza pie has gone down a little bit okay so if I had
a pot down here you know I could pick up that maximum signal it booted up to full
signal there so you can see it's just recapturing it which is great and the
upload is going to even out back out to about 22 or so so now I'm in my laundry
room but the furthest point in my house is way back here it's gonna get a little
bit dark so I turn some lights on all right so there's that now I'm back in my
little storage area and then there's my what I call the dungeon little office
that I'm in so this right now I'm underneath my bedroom this is the
farthest point in the house away from my original original pod so we'll see what
we get back here in this corner
so we pulled about 92 there which really isn't bad I mean if I'm pulling you know
180 to 200 at my main router I'm still pulling 90 megabytes down here in my
basement and the father's point away from the main router and you did see
that on there there was a little bit of signal drop but that could be because
I'm coming through the floor in the basement and there's electrical wiring
and stuff down here so that could be interfering with that so as you can see
it works really well I mean I like I said before it's a good product to
recommend it but if you ever want to do some more research on youtube if you can
find another video like this go for it but I just want to say thanks guys for
watching another video again I apologize for being gone for so long but you guys
take care and until next time I'll see you later
