Best Position for my Wi-Fi Modem?

Best Position for my Wi-Fi Modem?

 

Placing your modem in the centre of the building will provide better coverage to more of your home or business.

 

The speed and strength of the Wi-Fi signal depends on the distance between the modem and the devices you are using (e.g., a smartphone, tablet, laptop).

 

Make sure that the modem is in an open space and positioned as high off the ground as possible (at least on a table or piece of furniture). Windows, walls, and anything metal can affect the Wi-Fi signal. Avoid placing the modem behind a TV or in a cabinet.

 

Tip: The front of the modem (the flat side with the lights on it) should face outwards into the room.
