D-Link whole home mesh wi-fi package wtih Covr pointsWhen your home has a good router, the internet is a beautiful thing. It connects us globally and gives us near infinite access to knowledge and entertainment. From messaging friends across the world to posting pictures on social media to reading books online, the internet has become central to our lives, which has in turn made a reliable internet connection a necessity. If you find your internet speed or coverage lacking, then you should consider a whole home mesh system. Today, we’re giving away four D-Link Covr Whole Home Mesh Wi-Fi systems so you’ll never have to deal with dead zones or slow network speeds again.

D-Link Covr: Don’t life live without Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi has become so ubiquitous that you only notice it when you don’t have it. I’m sure many of you have let out cries of frustration when your stream cuts out or your video chat freezes—I know I have.

D-Link PowrZone Covr

I live in a small apartment, and yet somehow the wall between the den and the kitchen is enough to stop my router from working to its full potential. My kitchen exists as an irritating dead zone, making it hard for me to watch recipes and/or reruns of Kitchen Nightmares (what can I say? I love Gordan Ramsay and I like to think of the show as a “what not to do” guide) while I cook. The thing about Wi-Fi is that we’re so used it, we don’t think about until it doesn’t work. The beauty of the D-link whole home mesh system is that you won’t have to think about Wi-Fi at home again, because it will just work. You won’t have to avoid certain rooms in your house or walk around with your phone awkwardly raised above your head to video chat to your relatives. And even if you don’t have dead zones, you might be tired of constant buffering or have a home full of heavy network users who game and stream in 4K. The Covr PowrZone system uses a Wi-Fi Mesh Covr Point for the the bulk of your Wi-Fi activity and has two amplifiers to cover your whole home. Reviewer Steven Hill and his family were so impressed with the PowrZone system that after Steven tested it, his family declared they needed one of their own. How’s that for an endorsement? See for yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RjDfCzdQVY&feature=youtu.be It’s clear that this system was the Wi-Fi solution Steven’s family needed in their home.

Covr: Whole Home Mesh with a difference

D-Link Covr doesn’t just make your network faster and wider, they have also created the Covr with exciting features. The Powrzone works in spaces up to 6500 sq. ft., while the 2-pack of the mesh cover points is for areas up to 6000 sq. ft. Both only require minimal set up, work with your existing router or gateway, and operate under one system with a single password and username. This makes it simple to improve your home network and forget it ever didn’t work in your kitchen, garage, or basement. And with their modern and diminutive design, you won’t be reminded of their presence every time you walk into a room. The systems also have parental controls, which is great if you are concerned about your child’s internet usage. You can even create customized profile for each child and their devices and schedule allotted screen time. I think I would  set up parental controls to stop myself from browsing the internet late into the night! The D-Link Covr whole home mesh systems are also compatible with Wi-Fi via Alexa and Google Assistant. Rebooting your Wi-Fi system, turning guest Wi-Fi on and off, and checking guest Wi-Fi credentials can be done using voice commands, rather than have to fiddle with wires, passwords, and buttons. So, with the D-Link Cover systems, you get faster internet with wider coverage, plus the ability to customize the settings with voice commands. You’ll never have to cry out in frustration at a slowly loading page or glitchy videos stream again.

  1. I have lost a facetime connection with my family overseas when I was walking around the house and entered a dead zone.

  2. My Wi-Fi let me down on family movie night. We were watching a comedy on Netflix and right in the middle of the funny part, we were cut off. it didn’t seem as funny the 2nd time.

  3. at the lake….no cell service….landline is down( that’s not unusual)……. as long as we have internet we can always use skype as our connection to the outside world…..which works fine but only if you are in the tiny front porch….so keep it short and sweet!

  4. A poor connection has let me down and I didn’t realize I was using data. As such, my data usage was over for the month and I have to pay lots of $$ because I wasn’t on WiFi.

  5. I was in the middle of a complicated and time consuming transaction and our very unreliable wifi dropped, disconnecting my connection, this happened 2x in a row, third time lucky but I was so frustrated.

  6. I have many friend in England and when Megan and Harry got married many of them were having parties with the fancy dress, hats and tea. One them called me to join hr party so I could participate in the festivities. I had chat with all the guests we were having a nice time then I lost them. They called me back several times but my connection kept dropping I was so disappointed.

  7. The 2 bedrooms at the front of the house have really bad wifi reception. Have to come out of the bedrooms in order to use it. And you can’t stream anything in there, it just won’t work.

  8. Once my computer was in the middle of a big update, and the wifi went out in the middle of it – what a nightmare!

  9. We have an old house, with a few additions. It woiuld be great to get good internet at the front of the house

  10. Playing on the Xbox and the connection just drops…very disappointing when there are limited opportunities to sit down and enjoy some gaming.

  11. Anytime I try to FaceTime family or friends from my bedroom poor connection is always causing lag or pixelated videos. Would be nice to have a stable connection and clear video for a change!

  12. There is poor wi-fi reception in parts of my home. It would be nice to stream a movie without losing a connection.

  14. I had to install multiple wireless access points to reach the front of my house so my son could watch YouTube Kids on my iPad.

  15. couldn’t watch netflix or download anything when trying to play games in my office… poor wifi connect 🙁 Ended up having to buy a powerline for a temporary slow fix

  16. There was a time that a poor network connection let us down by lagging. My family in the states and my Canadian family would be playing Gears Of War intense matches and then it would lag and my man would freeze on screen and then I would hear “I gotcha” and the lag stopped BOOM my character’s body parts all over my TV screen. It sucked but funny at the same time. Good times

  17. Working from home and requiring good connection to host a webinar. Of course, it falls through because there was a blip in our WIFI and had to restart the webinar. So bad!!

  18. Well, let’s see…
    There was this morning when…
    Oh wait, yesterday when the…
    Hang on, my favourite, at the fridge…
    Let’s just say “a lot”. Streaming, gaming, shopping. A 4 level split is not a wifi’s best friend. Kinda like dressing room mirrors – just a whole lotta NOPE.

    ps. @StephanieLaplante and @AnnMatschke deserve one. I don’t know them but those 2 stories need some Best Buy love.

  19. when I got my daughter’s cell phone bill and she had promised she was using wifi, it had cut out on her while she was streaming.

Our family loves music, especially wifi one wherein we can listen to classic music, wifi let us down when we have to request the commentator to great my sons birthday live on the radio as a surprise while were simply winding down at night, when suddenly the music stop as the wifi get disconnected, thats too bad because we missed the birthday greetings which happened only once a year and I cant say t hat I did not listen and we did not hear, too bad so with this hoping our problem will be resolved. Thank you

Everything was fine until a player killer caught up with me. I was successfully getting away…but then I LOST connection…AND I DIED A TERRIBLE DEATH! *sniffles*
