The masterpiece explains how to improve the radio wave condition of home Wi-Fi, but for those who need to prepare an Internet line at home in a hurry for new Coronavirus infection (COVID-19).It explains how to build an Internet connection environment using a mobile line as a special edition.The mobile line is very useful when you want to introduce it in a hurry without waiting for a line work.
今回は、モバイル回線を共有して利用できるWi-Fiルーターを見ていこうList of articles series "I don't know" of home Wi-Fi!
Last time, I checked how to connect a PC to the Internet using tethering using a smartphone line.As you can see if you start using tethering on your smartphone, this method is just a rush.
It is easy to connect only one PC to the Internet alone, but it is not suitable for the whole family to connect at all times.If communication is stopped for a certain period of time, the function is stopped, the number of connections is limited to about 10 or less [*1], and the line contract is not for large capacity in the first place, so it is always important to use it.many.
[*1]… You may think it's enough to connect 10 units, but if you actually use it with your family, there are surprisingly many devices that you want to connect to Wi-Fi, such as tablets, game consoles, and TV players.
There is a Wi-Fi router for mobile lines.It is a small product that is also called "Pocket Wi-Fi", and you may have seen it.It is used for the purpose of carrying this and connecting equipment that cannot use a mobile line on the go.
Try using this at home is a method that anyone can think of, but there are actually "I can't carry" versions.This is a Wi-Fi router for the purpose of using a mobile line at home.If you want to secure a certain amount of home line such as telework, I would recommend this "not in pocket" Wi-Fi router.
モバイル回線向けのWi-Fiルーターには、用途の違いから持ち歩き用と据え置き用の2種類がある。据え置きモデルは、UQ WiMAX「Speed Wi-Fi HOME L02」The major difference between carrying and stationary is the size of the main unit, whether the battery is installed.In any case, I think there are some people who think that it is smaller and can be carried around.If you live alone, that's the right answer.When you get out of your home, you can take it out and use it full.
However, if you want to use it by multiple people for home, it is often more comfortable to fix the Wi-Fi router for stationary mobile lines to your house.Since the stationary type has more room for the size, the speed of Wi-Fi is stable in a large room in a large room.Since it is designed to be continuously operating with the power supply connected, the number of devices that can be connected is about 20 units, so that the operation is less likely to be unstable.
I would like you to check the following items and choose them.This is because the Wi-Fi router used indoors only is easier to use because it is limited to outdoor use in the 5GHz band.
In the Wi-Fi router for carrying mobile lines, 5GHz bands including the bandwidth [*2] that are not available outdoors are omitted due to weather radar..Many models need to be switched to the 4GHz band.This means that it is a little difficult to use indoors that want to reach Wi-Fi to a large area.

[*2]… By the way, the only 5GHz band that can be used outdoors is only W56.For more information on outdoor use of the 5GHz band, please refer to the "Wi-Fi router channel settings for Wi-Fi router (5) [Mobile Wi-Fi Router]"
In that regard, in the stationary type that is limited to indoors, IEEE 802 in the 5GHz band.11ac can be used without stress, and this alone has great benefits.Check the specifications and back of the main unit and "IEEE 802.It is a good idea to make sure that there is a description that can be used, "11ac", "W52", "W53", and "W56".Like a general Wi-Fi router used by connecting to a fixed line, the 5GHz band can be fully utilized.
Speed Wi-Fi HOME L02の底面には、IEEE 802.11acと、W52、W53、W56の表記があるIn addition, the fact that there is a wired LAN port [*3] that is not equipped with a model for carrying is also an advantage for telework using a PC.In video conferences, stable communication is always required, but if the Wi-Fi connection is not stable, stable communication is possible by connecting a PC to a wired LAN port.I want you to use it in case of an indispensable important meeting [*4].
[*3] …… Even with mobile Wi-Fi routers, there are some models that can use wired LAN using a cradle.If you are thinking about using a mobile and home, check out the cradle.For example, with UQ WiMAX, "Speed Wi-Fi Next WX06" is prepared as an option.
[*4] ... The mobile Wi-Fi router has a model that operates as a modem when connected to a PC USB port.In this case, since no Wi-Fi is used, communication can be stable.However, in this method, only one PC can be used.If you connect to the LAN port, there is a big difference that other devices can be connected to the net with Wi-Fi.
Speed Wi-Fi HOME L02には、ギガビット対応のLANポートが2つあるThe Wi-Fi router for the selected stationary type of mobile line this time is the UQ WiMAX "Speed Wi-Fi HOME L02".The body has a feeling of size similar to a general Wi-Fi router, and has four antennas.2.It supports up to 40 units, including 20 units for 4GHz bands and 5GHz bands.
Gigabit -compatible wired LANs are also available, and it is a perfect high -spec model for telework.Since the battery is not built -in, it is an indoor product that connects to the power supply.
UQ WiMAX「Speed Wi-Fi HOME L02」Once you narrow down the model you want to use, make sure that the line contract is ultimately a contract that can be used as much as you want or limit but can be convinced.Despite all -you -can -use, the speed is usually limited according to the communication volume within a certain period.
For example, in UQ WiMAX's "Giga Unlimited", the WiMAX 2+ line is all -you -can -use without the maximum traffic volume [*5], but if you use 10GB or more in 3 days, the speed from around 18:00 the next day to about 2 o'clock the next day.The upper limit is limited to 1Mbps.
For example, a video conference, etc., vary depending on the service, but it is likely that the speed limit will be applied too frequently.In order to avoid this, it is necessary to use it with some attention, such as dropping image quality from 720p to 360p, or using only audio if the video is not needed.
If it is restricted to 1Mbps, one -on -one TV phones can be made for low -quality quality, but group calls are hard.Speaking of video viewing, it is only a guide, but it is about 1GB for one hour on YouTube with HD quality.Also, even if it is restricted to 1Mbps, you will be able to watch standard image quality and neutral image quality.
[*5] …… Au's LTE line can also be used for 7GB for an additional option of 1005 yen.However, this is assumed that a carrying type model will be used outside the WiMAX 2+area.If your home is in the WiMAX 2+ area, you will not need it if you sign a contract.If you are worried, use a service called "TRYWIMAX" that can be used for 15 days for the area judgment purpose.
From the next time, let's actually set a Wi-Fi router for this stationary mobile line.
