[br][br]Let the hand that has never suffered by a bad Internet connection raise. It is true that, in some cases, the problem is in the configuration of the router or in the service offered by the contracted company. But, most of the time, a bad Wi-Fi signal occurs due to the proximity to certain objects or furniture that we have in our house.[br][br]We want to tell you which are the main enemies of your wifi. At the end of the article you will find very important tips. Do not miss them![br][br]1. Furniture and metal surfaces.[br][br][br]
[br][br]Third party image reference[br]Metal is a conductor, which means that it absorbs electricity. As the waves emitted by the wifi are electromagnetic, any metal surface that is inside a house will stop the propagation of these. If you want your Internet to work without problems it is important that you place the router away from the metals.[br][br]2. Walls and walls of stone.[br][br][br]
[br][br]Third party image reference[br]Some walls or walls stop the wifi signal. Among the main materials that prevent a good connection are marble, cement, concrete, plaster and bricks. This explains why two-story houses usually suffer with a very low Internet signal at one level. To solve this, place your router in a free area and away from walls.[br][br]3. Mirrors.[br][br][br]
[br][br]Third party image reference[br]The material that allows us to see ourselves in a mirror is the same that reflects the signal emitted by a router. This object works like a shield, and usually bounces the Internet connection, so when it is near the router, it can cause the signal strength to feel slower or the connection to be interrupted.[br][br]4. Refrigerators and washing machines.[br][br][br]
[br][br]Third party image reference[br]In general, appliances that have pipes in which water circulates are not very friendly with the Wi-Fi signal. This liquid has the ability to retain some energy from wireless waves, which negatively affects the quality of the Internet connection.[br][br]5. Christmas lights.[br][br][br]
[br][br]Third party image reference[br]The colorful Christmas lights can also be the cause of a low wifi signal in your home. These have sparkling chips that generate a magnetic field that interacts with the wave emitted by the router. In the month of December, do what you can to keep the router away from your Christmas tree. |
