4 common WiFi problems
Here is a quick list of common WiFi problems to check:
Slow WiFi speeds?
More often than not, your ISP has installed your home/business wireless router in the worst possible location.
To get the best wireless signal from your wireless router, it should be placed off the floor and as close to the center of your home or business as possible.
Outdated router firmwire
Router firmware is software that runs on your router. It can be configured to change the way your home network works, or connects to the internet. Your router's manufacture may issue updates, which usually need to be manually installed. These updates usually relate to improving stability or bugs, but can also fix vulnerabilities that could allow someone to gain unauthorized access to your home network.
Over-congested channels
Reduce power of your wireless network and ask neighbors to do the same. Although this may seem counter intuitive, imagine being in a room full of people where everyone is shouting with the people they are speaking with and they keep shouting louder and louder as they can barely hear the person they are speaking with. By asking everyone to speak quieter, people can now hear each other and be heard. The same is true with your wireless network and wireless devices.
2.4Ghz vs 5Ghz
Often times your wireless devices will choose to use the 2.4Ghz network over the 5Ghz network as the signal strength is greater. Sometimes the easiest fix is to rename your wireless networks, so you can denote which one is 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz, and tell your device which one you want it to connect to.
