Mercku is a startup that has successfully run a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo to launch what they call "the world's most powerful MESH Wi-Fi router." The product is named M2 Hive, and it is made out of five devices: an M2 wireless router, and four M2 Bees that connect to the router. Together, they create a mesh Wi-Fi system.

Key reinstallation attacks or KRACK are cyberattacks that exploit a vulnerability in the way WiFi networks encrypt and transmit data, with the aim of stealing what is transmitted over the network. Such attacks can result in theft of sensitive information or can be used as man-in-the-middle attacks, serving the victim a fake website or injecting malicious code into a legitimate site. Recently, researchers from ESET have revealed that some Echo and Kindle devices from Amazon are vulnerable to this attack.

Just like its name, which comes from a pun on the word hi-fi (high fidelity), the Wi-Fi icon is recognized universally, and users look for it instinctively on their computers and devices.

Wi-Fi has become a common term in our vocabulary, but wireless networking standards are not easy to understand or even pronounce. That is because they have complicated names, invented by network engineers and corporations. Do you know what 802.11ax is? What about 802.11ad, or 802.11ac? Did you hear the news that these names are changing into simpler terms like Wi-Fi 6, Wi-Fi 5, or Wi-Fi 4? Do you want to understand what all that means and why it matters?

ASUS RT-AX92U is an exciting mesh WiFi system for several reasons. One of them is the fact that it has a dedicated wireless backhaul, that uses the new Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) wireless standard, which is a lot faster than Wi-Fi 5. Here is what you get in terms of real-life performance, from ASUS RT-AX92U and its Wi-Fi 6 backhaul:

Mesh WiFi systems have some advantages compared to traditional wireless routers: they tend to be easier to configure, they offer broader coverage for the WiFi, and you can add nodes as you please, to improve the coverage and reliability of your wireless network. However, there are also downsides, like the fact that they tend to use the same network name and settings for all wireless bands, and that the network clients do not always connect to the fastest band available. With RT-AX92U, ASUS has a different approach to this problem. Here's how it works, and how it can be helpful:
