Using a computer attached to the Router via a network cable,

My wireless network performance is slow, inconsistent, suffers from weak
signal, or I’m having difficulty maintaining a VPN connection.
Wireless technology is radio-based, which means connectivity
and the throughput performance between devices decreases
when the distance between devices increases. Other factors that
will cause signal degradation (metal is generally the worst
culprit) are obstructions such as walls and metal appliances.
Note also that connection speed may decrease as you move
farther away from the Router.
In order to determine if wireless issues are related to range, we
suggest temporarily moving the computer within 10 feet from
the Router if possible.
