If you’re having issues with devices that aren’t working it’s probably time to install a Wi-Fi signal booster. These devices are simple to use and set up and can enhance WiFi signals for better speeds. All you need is a WiFi router and an outlet, as well as the direction you want to point it. Some boosters include additional features, like an USB port to charge wireless devices.
How to Install an Signal Booster
A WiFi booster or range extender is an easy device that can be used anyplace with an internet connection. It connects wirelessly to your router. It takes the signal from your router and transmits it to an area nearby which allows you to access the internet even in your basement or in your backyard. Place it half-way between your router and the area where you lose signal and direct it towards that area.
It is important to understand that while a booster increases internet speed, the speed offered by your internet provider isn’t increased. This is because the speed you pay for is provided by your broadband service and is not dependent on how far you are from WiFi signals.
Another important thing to consider is that wireless fidelity signal transmissions are severely affected by water, which means that a fountain, aquarium, or even a cup of coffee can reduce the signal. You can avoid this by keeping your WiFi booster and cell signal amplifier out the reach of water sources.
