It’s called Fastweb NeXXt is an intelligent router integrated with Alexa intelligence to manage home broadband. Technically NeXXt is not just a modem, but it is a speaker compatible with Amazon’s Alexa voice assistant. On paper it offers speeds of up to 2.5 Gbps in download and 300 Mb / s in upload and of course supports the latest generation Wi-Fi 6, which allows you to connect up to 128 devices at the same time enabling potentially higher connection speeds than previous standards. What is the voice for? If you ask NeXXt to activate the “streaming mode”, for example, the privileged connectivity will be that of the smart TV, while by activating the “smart working mode” the bandwidth will be reserved for the PC
Bandwidth management and price
Like Google Wifi, Fastweb’s new product can be associated with a booster, a unit that increases the coverage of the Wifi signal. You can then manage the power of the connection to “divert” it to where it is needed most. As for the price, it will be included free of charge in all Fastweb offers for new customers starting from Monday 17 May and subsequently the new internet box will also be available for existing Fastweb customers who will be able to request it directly in the MyFastweb customer area and from the app. MyFastweb.
