Wifi Range


Recommended Posts

Greetings,

I have a small problem; I'm not sure if it's due to recent updates, but the range of my wifi signal, both 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz, disconnects at a distance of approximately 10 feet (3.5 meters) with just one wall in between.

I would appreciate any help if there is a configuration that can amplify the range.

Note: I separated both bands and tried other channels.

  • Split the bands, give 2.4/5GHz different names and apply - you'll want to connect to 5GHz specifically for speeds
  • Use a WiFi analyzer to find the least congested channel and change to that
  • Experiment with the widths to see what gives better results
  • Ensure it's in an elevated position - not on a metal surface
  • Ensure there aren't any electrical / wireless devices e.g headphones etc within close proximity ~3 feet if possible
  • Set the antennae to this position _ | | _

Greetings!
 

I would like to know if it is possible to replace the antennas of the team with ones with a higher dBi. The reason is that I have poor coverage literally, when I move from one room to another, the signal falls completely when passing through a wall, despite being near the router located in an open place.
 

I have followed the recommendations and I even had to place a network extender on a single wall. It is important to mention that the wall is not concrete. Thanks.

In theory yes you could do that as long as the connectors are correct, I believe someone has done that in the past and noticed an improvement
