Q: I would like to understand a mesh network and how I Can have installed in my home
A: Hi Scott. Thanks for your great questions. A mesh network in itself is typically 2 or more nodes that are spread through the home and create essentially a blanket over the entire space - thus creating a more consistent and stable connection to the network. This will be able to hold faster speeds, more devices and be more reliable long-term. We'd be happy to talk about this more and show you options available to you. To get started, please contact or head into your local Best Buy. You can find information about your local store at www.bestbuy.com/storelocator.
A: The technicians I had did exactly that. They went into every room in my home to make sure that wi-fi service was at its optimum.

Save yourself the hassle and have us set up your new video device (media player, video game console, etc.). If needed, we’ll complete any initial software configurations your TV might need so it can be ready for us to configure your video devices. We’ll connect up to two video devices to your TV or A/V receiver and configure the picture, sound, and general settings. We’ll then connect up to two video devices to your existing home network and perform any necessary firmware updates. We’ll also configure up to three subscription services or profiles on your video device(s), and we can set up screen mirroring using your compatible mobile device. Once the setup is finished, we’ll take the time to demo your new technology and make sure you know how to use it. Finally, we’ll ensure that all wires and cables are neatly dressed, and the workspace is clean when we finish. Best Buy’s TV services are backed by a 90-day limited workmanship warranty.*
