Mesh WiFi guide for the whole house

By The workshop team at Datorhjälp Lerum, computer technicians & it specialists · Updated 11 July 2026

WiFi dead zones in a house or apartment are usually solved with mesh — not a more expensive router in the same spot.

Installation tips

Avoid hiding nodes in cupboards — they need air and clear line of sight.

Name 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz consistently so devices roam automatically.

What: Mesh consists of several nodes that work together as one network with the same name.
Why: A single router rarely covers multiple floors and thick walls.
How: Place nodes halfway between router and weak zones, cable backhaul if possible.
Cost: Network installation from 499 SEK, home visit from 699 SEK.
Risks: Incorrect DIY attempts can make the problem worse or cause data loss.
Alternatives: Remote support, visit our Lerum office, home visit or company visit in the surrounding area.

Cable between main node and satellite gives best stability for working from home.
