Connecting Laurel Estates to the world wide web soon.

125 Mbps (Megabits per second) Download  by 25 Mbps Upload. This is 10 times faster than satellite internet and NO DATA CAPS!! Network Latency is also up to 20 times faster than satellite internet (this is the amount of delay before the transfer of data).

Fiber Optic internet will be brought to the tower and we will distribute the signal from 4 different Antennas attached to the tower to all of the cottages via white colored dishes that we will mount to the roof of each cottage.  We then run an ethernet cable into each house to a switch that will handle all the Wi-Fi devices.

Updated Wi-Fi signals have been broken up on 2 different bands. (2.4 & 5 Gigahertz, GHz for short) 5 GHz bands have faster speeds and will be the most recommended band to use.  2.4 GHz bands have less speed but travel further than 5GHz but will still have enough speed for streaming/facetime, etc. If 5 GHz signal isn't strong enough in a part of the house then using 2.4 GHz will be sufficient.
