A common ratio is 1.5 to 2 times the screen size for optimal viewing. Decide between a home theater projector for a large screen experience or a high-definition TV.

    3- Home theater seating: Invest in comfortable, tiered home theater seating or recliners that can enhance the viewing experience.

  • What is best for your property a wireless security camera system or a wired security camera system?

    The best choice for your property depends on your specific needs, budget, and installation preferences. If you prioritize ease of installation and flexibility, a wireless system may be the way to go. However, if you seek reliability and superior video quality, a wired system could be a better fit.

    Installation: A wireless security camera system is easier to set up than a wired system. A wired system often needs an electrician, making it harder and more expensive.

    Reliability: A wired security camera system is more reliable. You do not depend on an unstable wireless connection. In contrast, a wireless security camera can be easily hacked. The connection can also be lost if the wireless signal is weak.

  • Wireless networks are made up of several wireless access points or AP's. Typically, access points are designed to extend your network by allowing wireless devices to connect, but they can also serve as a bridge for wired devices. To get a stable and fast connection, connect an Ethernet cable from the access point to a device. This device can be a computer, printer, or smart TV.

    Yes! an access point or AP can connect to devices via ethernet
