EE this week launched a new Smart WiFi home broadband service, designed to boost the WiFi coverage in every room of a customer’s home. The new Smart WiFi home solution includes a new Smart Router, Smart WiFi Discs and inclusive 4GEE WiFi Mini - helping customers to stay connected at home and while out and about.
EE’s new Smart Router contains EE’s smartest home broadband technology to date, helping to boost coverage to more parts of any home. The router is simple to set up and customers can add Smart WiFi Discs to boost the WiFi connection throughout their home. All customers will receive one Smart WiFi Disc at point of purchase and can increase this to up to three discs throughout their plan. Each disc can support up to 60 devices.
New EE Home app
Thanks to the new EE Home app, setup of new Smart Router and Smart WiFi Discs is incredibly easy, and it helps customers to optimise their home WiFi experience. Once a customer is up and running, they can then use it to manage their connection and see which devices are connected at any given time, no matter where they are in the house. The app allows customers to set access controls and set up device groups that can be controlled separately. Parents will be able to set up a ‘children’s device’ group and manage the times that those devices are connected, turning off connectivity around bedtime.
Smart WiFi is available on all EE fixed home broadband plans for £10 per month for 18 months.

With even greater numbers of customers and devices connecting to WiFi, it will help eliminate those areas in the home where it’s hard to get coverage and enable customers to make the most out of being connected - whether it’s in a new extension, attic room or even the basement.
