A few decades ago, the Internet was available only on desktop computers. Today, technology has reached the level where wireless access to the network can be obtained from mobile devices, being in any place where there is a stable signal from a base station.
RBK-Ukraine (Styler project) tells about simple ways improve the Wi-Fi signal at home.

Reasons for poor connection with a router
< li>insufficient antenna power
The quality of the signal depends on the position of the router. How and where to install the device:< /p>
The best option will place the router in the center of the apartment at table level or higher so that the omnidirectional antenna can optimally use all directions of radiation.
It is important to consider that different wall materials have different effects on signal quality. Drywall and wood partitions have the least effect on reception, while reinforced concrete structures are the main obstacles to signal propagation.
Objects with a high metal content, such as household appliances, can also degrade the quality of the connection, so it is recommended minimize their presence in the room.
How to fix the situation with a bad Wi-Fi signal in the apartment
If you are in a two-story house, it is recommended to place the device in the center of the building, for example on the second floor, to ensure an even distribution of the signal throughout the building. If there are concrete or reinforced concrete floors in the house, a separate signal amplifier can be installed on each floor to improve its reception.
Close location of electronic devices, wires, metal doors, reinforced concrete partitions, insulation on the walls, halogen lamps, mirrors and other objects can negatively affect the propagation of the communication signal.
The quality of the signal usually decreases in the presence of household appliances near the router. It is recommended to place the router in a place away from microwave oven, refrigerator and TV.
Sometimes even advanced devices have signal problems, which can be solved by updating the software provision (software) on time. It is important to regularly check device messages, as some routers warn about the presence of new software.
When purchasing a router, it is necessary to block access for outsiders and set your own password. You can also improve the Wi-Fi signal by changing the router settings.
