DID you know the room you place your Wi-Fi router in plays a massive part in the strength of your connection?<\/p>\n

It may not be your provider or package that's the problem, but whereabouts the box lives in the home instead.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It may be something in the walls, or the objects in that room, that may make it a poor choice for a Wi-Fi hub. <\/p>\n

Certain objects, such as metal beams or objects, can be a complete menace to internet signals. <\/p>\n

They should be avoided if you want to maintain steady broadband throughout your home.<\/p>\n

Kitchen<\/h2>\n

The kitchen is full of metal objects – and Wi-Fi signals don't like metal.<\/p>\n

There's the microwave, fridge and oven which are all big electricals that can have an impact.<\/p>\n

And if your kitchen is part of an extension – as is common these days – it could be even worse because of the metal beams used.<\/p>\n

Cellar<\/h2>\n

The cellar is a poor choice to put your router in because of the location itself.<\/p>\n

Being underground makes it hard for the signal to reach your devices.<\/p>\n

A central spot is best.<\/p>\n

Under the stairs<\/h2>\n

While not strictly a room, under the stairs is another bad place for your router.<\/p>\n

It's closed away making it harder for the signal to spread out.<\/p>\n

A good rule of thumb is to test whether you have a line of vision with your router – if you can't actually see it, chances are your connection wouldn't be as good as it could be.<\/p>\n
