Browsing slowing into a crawl, the inability to stream, constant drops in Wi-Fi Signals are the annoying problems we’re all facing whilst working and learning from home. But here are the top 5 things you can do in 2 minutes to improve and boost your Wi-Fi signal.
Take 2 Minutes to Perform These Top 5:
- Move to a central location: We know internet routers are not the most attractive looking features in your home, but keeping them in cabinets or closets will only slow their signal. Relocate your internet router to a central open location without any coverings.
- Keep it off the ground: Keep your wi-fi router higher up. The more rooms it can visibly “see”, the stronger the signal will be and you’ll increase the performance at home.
- Move away from other Electronics: Sometimes keeping your internet router next to other electronics can cause an interference with its signal. So always keep your wi-fi routers away from television or cable boxes. You should also keep it away from large appliances like refrigerators which can also block the signal.
- Measure & Identify the Signal Strength: Move around the house and identify which areas in your home are the weakest when it comes to receiving Wi-Fi signals. Once you’ve identified the weakest spots, move your router in that direction.
- Always Update your service: If the others didn’t work, then it’s time to update the router’s firmware, or upgrade your internet service. Browse through your options. You may find that all you need is a range extender to help you reach all corners of your home.
