5 Tips How To Increase the Range of Weak Wireless Signal

1. Move to a Less Crowded Channel

2. Position of the Wireless Router and why does it matter?

3. Make Use of Aluminum Foil

4. Antenna Replacement

5. Adding a Wireless Repeater / Range Extender

6. Other Recommended Tips

1. Always keep your router firmware up to date. Most routers have an auto update checking button, so should you run it often to get the latest firmware for your device. These fixes usually improve performance and other important security measurements.
2. Use the Same Wireless standard throughout the network. If you have wireless N router and force it to run in compatible mode with a/b and g, you will experience a bad drop in transfer rate.
   I once tested this theory on my old Neatgear router by running on two different modes : a/b/g/n and N-only separately. The difference is 600-800kbps vs. 1.2mbps accordingly, on a slow cable connection. This means the impact has a greater hit on faster Internet connection, therefore you should totally be aware of this setting on your router. Strike for the best mode your router can support. On the other note, since my PSP only accepts Wireless b while PS3 takes Wireless g standard, I have to stick with compatible mode as long as I’m still playing them. sigh :( …
3. It’s preferred to use the same branded products. However, it’s actually more important to have good set of router and adapter, despite what brand it comes from. Keep an eyes on those that offer single or double external antennas.
