If you’re trying to solve WiFi, black spots – whether it's for your home office, your business, or even a big outdoor space - you’ve probably heard the term “access point” thrown around. 

Particularly with the launch of their latest WiFi 7 access point to the family, Grandstream is stepping firmly into the future of wireless connectivity -offering even faster speeds and smoother experiences for customers that need to stay ahead of the curve.

Don’t worry if it sounds a bit confusing - we're breaking it all down for you in simple terms.

Let’s take a look at what access points are, why you might need one, and dive into Grandstream's access point range (including the latest WiFi 7 addition!) to help you stay connected wherever you are.

What is An Access Point And Why Do I Need One?

Think of an access point like a Wi-Fi booster or helper. It connects to your internet and then spreads that signal around a bigger area to enable more people and devices to get online. 

If you’ve got lots of people using Wi-Fi in a big area - like an office, café, school, or outdoor venue– access points make sure everyone gets strong, steady internet without dropouts.

Both residential and commercial spaces will benefit from an access point because:

• They're able to eliminate WiFi deadzones!
• They're perfect if you've got a lot of people or devices using the internet at once
• They're great for future-proofing your space, as connectivity needs to grow
