known objects that can affect your wi-fi

You might be surprised how many household items can impact wi-fi performance – in every home! 

Your home environment can change throughout the day, which may affect your wi-fi experience so you’re not enjoying the full benefit…  

try to keep your router away from: 

  • concrete walls (like in some apartments) 
  • thick timber beams/walls 
  • windows, mirrors, TV screens, even fish tanks 
  • large furniture (never tucked behind the sofa) 
  • multiple power cables/adapters/festive lights 
  • kitchen spaces, microwaves, radiators and appliances 
  • Bluetooth or other wi-fi devices (set-top boxes and speakers)  

location, location, location 

The best location for your wi-fi router is in a central location (not in a cupboard, behind the TV or on the floor). 

If you’ve got a hard-to-reach area that needs a little extra support, consider using a mesh extender or booster.
