Does SpotOn use mesh topology?

No, SpotOn doesn’t use mesh topology. Mesh networks often suffer from performance loss, interference and obstructions. Mesh networks are useful for home networks though, because it usually only has to connect a few devices. Using mesh topology for a professional network however, isn’t recommended.

SpotOn only works with access points that work in a cloud. Usually access points have to be connected to one controller (core router). For SpotOn’s CloudSpots this isn’t required! Our controller is in the cloud. Plug the internet cable into a CloudSpot and the CloudSpots will recognize each other through the controller in the cloud. This makes SpotOn’s plug&play system very user-friendly.
