A certain category of users is unhappy with the signal quality of their own wireless access point. This problem can be solved without resorting to buying expensive equipment.
It is necessary
- - TV antenna;
- - metal wire.
Instructions
Step 1
To get started, just try to move your Wi-Fi router. Many people install this equipment in hard-to-reach places, for example, on a computer system unit or on a windowsill.
Step 2
If you need to strengthen the signal quality in a certain room, then move the Wi-Fi router into it. Unfortunately, this method does not solve the problem of poor signal level in several rooms at once.
Step 3
To increase the global Wi-Fi signal range of the hotspot, use several tools. First, try purchasing an additional antenna. Many Wi-Fi routers have one or two standard antennas. Purchase a larger antenna and connect it to the device.
Step 4
If this procedure is not possible, then reinforce the existing antennas. Turn off the Wi-Fi router and unscrew the antenna (if removable). Strip some of the insulation from the top end of the antenna.
Step 5
Find an unused indoor TV antenna. Its size and shape do not play a special role. Connect both antennas with a metal wire. Assemble the router and turn it on.
Step 6
If you did not find an indoor antenna, but you have a stationary computer, you can attach the wire from the router antenna to the computer's system unit. If you are afraid of short circuits or any other damage to the antenna, then remove the cover of the system unit. And to it, in turn, connect the wire.
