WIFI - How you can Get a Rock-Solid Internet Connection

 

The most common problem is in establishing a 'good' connection between the remote laptop and the wireless router. Many people do not realize that just because you are receiving a signal from your wireless router, (AP) you still may not be able to log onto the Internet. Here is the problem.

 

 

A weak or noisy internet connection is normally caused by lost or scrambled data packets. These damaged packets are continually being 're-despatched' between the router and the receiving computer. This will gradual down your connection considerably and will even keep you from getting on the Internet at all.

 

 

There are several ways you'll be able to improve these weak WIFI signals. The easiest is to move the wireless router. If possible, attempt to find your router near the middle of the building. I've picked up WIFI signals from as far away as 1,000 feet when there were no obstacles blocking the transmission. However, I've also had a hard time just getting the signal to go from one end of a house to the other. This can be very true if the router is situated on a special floor than the receiving computer. The more partitions and floors the signal passes through, the weaker it gets.

 

 

If you can't locate the router near the middle of the building, there are several other things you possibly can do. First, attempt moving the receiving computer to a distinct location. Even turning it in a distinct direction could help. Laptops often have the WIFI antenna built into the monitor so just turning the laptop slightly is likely to be all you'll have to do to improve the reception.

 

 

In general, I've found that USB Internet adapters work much better than laptop internal receivers. The reason is...these exterior adapters come with a 3 to 5 foot twine permitting the adapter to be positioned high within the air and away from obstacles that is likely to be blocking the WIFI signal. Sadly, this means dragging round an additional gadget which shouldn't be what I really need to do. Luckily, in most cases your inner WIFI gadget will get the job achieved just fine.

 

 

If it is advisable to attain out to an AP that is hundreds or even hundreds of toes away, you'll want to analyze adding a high-acquire antenna and a USB Internet adapter. This is actually old technology. Ham radio buffs have been building hi-gain antennas for decades allowing them to receive signals from around the world. There are various antenna designs available that practically anybody can build. For just a few dollars, you may enhance your range considerably.

 

 

The world record for a WIFI connection using 'only' a hi-acquire antenna is 238 miles! You are probably not planning on difficult any records, but it's pretty widespread to see individuals connecting to wireless routers as much as a mile or more away, just by using DIY antennas.
