Steps to improve wireless connectivity
There are a number of factors that can impact the range of wireless devices. Follow
these tips to help improve your wireless connectivity:
1.
Adjust your wireless devices so that the signal is traveling in a straight path,
rather than at an angle. The more material the signal has to pass through the
more signal you will lose.
2.
Keep the number of obstructions to a minimum. Each obstruction can reduce
the range of a wireless device. Position the wireless devices in a manner that
will minimize the amount of obstructions between them.
3.
Building materials can have a large impact on your wireless signal. In an indoor
environment, try to position the wireless devices so that the signal passes
through less dense material such as dry wall. Dense materials like metal, solid
wood, glass or even furniture may block or degrade the signal.
4.
Antenna orientation can also have a large impact on your wireless signal. Use
the wireless adapter’s site survey tool to determine the best antenna
orientation for your wireless devices.
5.
Interference from devices that produce RF (radio frequency) noise can also
impact your signal. Position your wireless devices away from anything that
generates RF noise, such as microwaves, radios and baby monitors.
6.
Any device operating on the 2.4GHz frequency will cause interference. Devices
such as 2.4GHz cordless phones or other wireless remotes operating on the
2.4GHz frequency can potentially drop the wireless signal.
