This is usually due to router placement or signal interference. Our technicians will advise you on the best location for your router during installation. However, concealing these devices can obstruct the signal. For optimal performance, the router should be centrally located in your home, and the area around your equipment should be clear of furniture, mirrors, appliances, and metal objects.
If you’ve placed your router in a concealed location, like a basement or closet, you can contact us to have it moved. Standard service call fees may apply.
Alternatively, you may consider adding a Wi-Fi mesh extender. A Wi-Fi mesh extender is a device that enhances and extends the reach of your Wi-Fi network. It operates with your main router as part of a mesh network system, ensuring that your entire space is covered with a strong and consistent Wi-Fi signal. Unlike traditional extenders, which often create separate networks, mesh extenders maintain a single network throughout your home, allowing for seamless connectivity without dropping the signal. If you’re interested in adding a Wi-Fi mesh extender, please contact us.
