Struggling with Wi-Fi dead zones or poor coverage in certain areas of your home? Let's explore some ways to improve Wi-Fi coverage and find the best location for your router.
Factors to Consider
-
Central Placement: Ideally, your router should be located centrally in your home, such as in a lounge or common area. This helps distribute the Wi-Fi signal evenly throughout your living space.
-
Home Size and Layout: Consider the size and layout of your home. Larger homes or those with multiple floors may require additional measures to ensure consistent coverage in every room.
Improvement Solutions
-
Wi-Fi Range Extenders: These devices help extend the range of your existing Wi-Fi network by amplifying the signal. They're an affordable solution for addressing dead spots and improving coverage in specific areas.
-
Mesh Wi-Fi Systems: For more robust coverage, consider investing in a whole home Mesh Wi-Fi solution. These systems come in sets of two, three, or more devices and create a seamless network across your home. Opting for Gigabit or Wi-Fi 6 versions can provide even better performance and coverage.
-
Router Upgrades: The free router provided by Rapidnet, while functional, may not be the best fit for your home. We offer a range of competitive alternatives, including preconfigured router and Wi-Fi options, to enhance coverage and performance. You're also welcome to source your own router, and if you need advice, don't hesitate to contact our support team.
