Bandwidth
What is Bandwidth?
How much data your internet connection can move at once — like the width of a pipe for water.
Why Bandwidth Matters

NetworkingDead Zone
A dead zone is a spot in your business or office where the Wi-Fi signal is too weak to use reliably — video calls drop, files won't upload, and devices show no connection even though the network works fine everywhere else.

The modem brings the internet connection into your building from your service provider — it translates the signal from your cable, fiber, or DSL line. The router shares that connection around your business, creating a local network and giving each device its own internal address.
