Wireless Routers

Wireless routers are radio transmitter, and there are some simple rules to observe if you want to maximize performance.

  1. Mount the wireless router higher rather than lower. – On top of a cabinet is better than inside it.
  2. Keep it away from large metal objects. – Aquariums and foil-backed insulation are bad news too. Try to keep it away from sources of interference such as microwaves.
  3. Place it carefully - The easiest way to improve the performance of your Wi-Fi network is to put your wireless router as closes as possible to the area you’re trying to get the signal from. 

When it comes to WI-FI, the better reception, the faster the connection.
