According to the Digital Trends website, the Wi-Fi network is often subjected to Tucao: the data transmission rate is too low, there is no signal in the living room, and the video on the upstairs TV is played. Fortunately, there are many simple ways to increase Wi-Fi speed.
First of all, if you can use Ethernet to connect devices, try to use network cables, especially in the transmission of high-definition video, such as Apple TV, Roku or high-definition television. Ethernet is fast and does not drop. As long as the network cable is not damaged, the Ethernet connection will not cause problems. In addition, traffic will not be transmitted over the Wi-Fi network.
Second, routers are usually placed in remote corners of the room. Users can try to place the router in an open space and place it as high as possible to minimize the wall between the router and the device. Another trick is if the router has two antennas, set one antenna horizontally and the other antenna vertical.
Digital Trends said that for 802.11n routers, users can try to connect through the 802.11g protocol, and the data transmission rate may double. In theory, the data transmission rate of the 802.11n protocol is faster, but in actual applications, this is not always the case.
For speeding WiFi, the new router is not required. If the router has been purchased for more than 2 years, upgrading it will help speed up the network. For users who purchase devices that support the 802.11ac protocol, it is definitely necessary to upgrade the router. Some of the best 802.11ac routers on the market offer outstanding performance.
Digital Trends stated that there are many measures that can speed up the Wi-Fi network, but the first measure the user should take is undoubtedly the mobile router. At least two or three locations should be moved and it is necessary to determine whether to take other measures. If the mobile router cannot increase the speed of the network, the user can continue to take more complicated troubleshooting measures, such as checking whether the same WiFi channel is used with the neighbors.
