How to Improve Home Wi-Fi Coverage

Reliable Wi-Fi depends on router position, interference, building materials, device capability and the internet service itself.

Move the router

A central, elevated, open location usually provides better coverage than a basement corner, cabinet or position behind a television.

Separate internet and Wi-Fi problems

A fast internet plan cannot overcome poor wireless coverage, and excellent Wi-Fi cannot fix an upstream provider outage.

Consider mesh carefully

Mesh systems can help larger or multi-level homes, but node placement and wired backhaul options strongly affect performance.

Secure the network

Use current encryption, a strong administrator password, firmware updates and a separate guest network when appropriate.
