W-Fi is a crucial part of what allows our digital world to keep spinning, and today, the Wi-Fi Alliance announced a brand-new standard to ensure it`s as easy-to-use as can be — EasyMesh. Mesh Wi-Fi systems like eero are becoming increasingly more popular, and with EasyMesh, hardware from different brands will be able to work with one another. Let`s say you`ve currently got Eero but want to give Google Wifi a shot.
