Samsung is putting its well-regarded SmartThings brand front and center in the latest iteration of its combination Wave 2 Wi-Fi mesh router and smart-home hub. SmartThings Wifi replaces Samsung’s first stabs at the home network, the Connect Home (https://www.techhive.com/article/3218050/network-router/samsung-connect-home-this-routersmart-home-hub-combo-isnt-a-star-in-either-role.html) and Connect Home Pro. Like those devices, this new product blends an 802.11ac wireless router with a SmartThings hub equipped with Z-Wave, ZigBee, and Bluetooth radios for controlling smart-home devices.
SmartThings Wifi also features Adaptive WiFi technology from Plume (https://www.plume.com/). This Silicon Valley startup has developed a cloud-based network-control system that uses artificial intelligence to learn about your home environment and continually optimize your network’s performance. Plume sells its own consumer mesh routers in addition to supplying its technology to third-party vendors, including Comcast. Comcast and Samsung have both made strategic investments in Plume.
