Many Canadians don\u2019t have consistently fast, high-quality Wi-Fi despite using the latest computers and performing low-speed tasks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thankfully, figuring out how to boost your Wi-Fi signal takes only a few minutes. Here are the best ways you can improve your wireless network.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Related: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vmedia.ca\/blog\/en\/how-to-increase-internet-speed\/\"><b>Proven Hacks to Increase Your Internet Speed<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Be_Strategic_With_Your_Router\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be Strategic With Your Router<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your Wi-Fi signal can travel <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifewire.com\/range-of-typical-wifi-network-816564\" class=\"broken_link\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">roughly 150 feet<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> indoors, but the range of your signal can be significantly shorter if your signal must travel through brick walls, wooden furniture, and metal siding. You should receive a sturdy signal if you plan on using your device in the same room as your router, but you must be careful if you\u2019re setting up an office in another location.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try to create a straight line between your router and your computer. You can place your router directly beneath your office or move thick furniture like mahogany shelves from the walls closet to your router. Position your desk so it faces toward your router and is not at an angle to it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should also take your router at least two yards off the floor, as the ground can absorb Wi-Fi signals, and the signals you receive are weaker. You can place it on a shelf, but make sure it is made of thin materials that won\u2019t repress the signals. You can also place it on the top of a table or sideboard as long as it is made of thin wood, like plywood.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wi-Fi router antennas are omnidirectional, sending signals in all directions, which is good if you have devices throughout your home. <\/span><b>However, if you want to boost your Wi-Fi signal for an office or a desktop computer, you may want to purchase a router with a high-gain antenna.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This antenna will transmit in only one direction, giving you a steady and strong signal, especially if you clear objects away from the signal. You can buy a router with an omnidirectional antenna and replace it with a high-gain one, and you can always switch back if you purchase more devices.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;5543&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<b>Related: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vmedia.ca\/blog\/en\/how-long-does-a-router-last\/\"><b>How Long Does a Router Last?<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Add_Additional_Devices\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Add Additional Devices<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you notice that your signal is spotty or non-existent in parts of your home, order wireless repeaters that will rebroadcast your signal. You can plug a repeater into any wall outlet, though repeaters are most effective when they are roughly halfway between your router and your device.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/definition\/8546\/network-adapter\" class=\"broken_link\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">network adapter<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a device your computer uses to communicate over a Wi-Fi network to another computer, server, or networking device. Most adapters are cards that fit into your computer\u2019s hard drive, and you can replace them with USB wireless adapters with external antennas. These adapters can transmit and receive signals better than card-based devices, giving you a more consistent Wi-Fi connection and faster processing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Buy all your hardware from the same manufacturer, especially if you broadcast your Wi-Fi signal across a large house or building. Wi-Fi hardware from different manufacturers can work together, but hardware usually performs better from the same manufacturer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Do you need help setting up your home Wi-Fi network? <\/i><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vmedia.ca\/en\/support\"><b><i>Contact VMedia\u2019s professional support staff<\/i><\/b><\/a><b><i>, and we\u2019ll give you the help you need to boost your Wi-Fi signal!<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reduce_Wireless_Interference\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reduce Wireless Interference<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most people have routers that operate at a frequency of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vmedia.ca\/blog\/en\/2-4-ghz-vs-5-ghz-wi-fi\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2.4 gigahertz (GHz)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which provides a steady signal ideal for casual activities like checking your email or downloading photos. However, numerous wireless electronics use the same frequency, including microwaves and cordless telephones. It\u2019s okay if you own one microwave or cordless telephone, but several devices can create signal noise that interferes with your Wi-Fi connection, especially if you\u2019re using multiple devices at once.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>You can change your Wi-Fi frequency to 5 GHz, especially if you\u2019re performing a high-speed activity like gaming.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> You can also purchase cordless phones and devices with a lower or higher frequency; many modern cordless phones use 1.9 GHz.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also experience wireless interference from your neighbors\u2019 routers. The easiest way to avoid this interference is to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vmedia.ca\/blog\/en\/router-login\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">log in to your router<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and change the router\u2019s channel. Look at the back or side of your router and type in the IP address on its label into your web browser. Most browsers will create a page with a drop-down menu you can use to change the wireless channel. You don\u2019t have to change your devices&#8217; settings, as they will automatically update and use the new channel.

Start by strategically positioning your router for optimal coverage, considering factors like obstacles and the height at which it&#8217;s placed. If you need to extend coverage, consider adding wireless repeaters or upgrading your router to one with a high-gain antenna.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To reduce wireless interference, consider switching to a 5 GHz frequency and addressing potential conflicts with neighboring routers by adjusting your channel settings. Additionally, be mindful of electromagnetic interference from devices like microwaves and fluorescent lights, which can disrupt your Wi-Fi signal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lastly, protect your Wi-Fi network with a strong, secure password and consider using monitoring tools to keep track of who&#8217;s connected to your network and how it&#8217;s being used. By following these steps, you can significantly enhance your wireless network&#8217;s performance and enjoy a more reliable and efficient Wi-Fi connection.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>D\u00e9sol\u00e9, cet article est seulement disponible en Anglais Canadien.
