Devices dropping connection on both 2.4 and 5ghz bands


Recommended Posts

Wireless devices in my household keep dropping connection, on my MacBook for instance I could just randomly lose connection on the 2.4ghz band so I will switch to the 5.0ghz band it will work fine. I will then eventually lose connection to the 5.0ghz band so will connect back to the 2.4ghz etc etc. 

Anyone have any suggestions on how I can improve the overall stability of wireless connections? this is getting people in my house quite disgruntled so any solutions would be helpful.

 

thank you.

Use a WiFi Analyzer - there is a free one called WiFi analyzer on the Microsoft Store for Windows and identify any channels which are largely free of other WiFi networks and then change to those in the router WiFi settings. Also adjust your antennae to this _ | | _ so 2 up, 2 out to the left and right. Do you have any wireless or electrical devices e.g. remotes, headphones etc within 3 feet of the router?
