Case study: weak wireless routing signal solution

This article mainly introduces how to solve the problem of weak wireless routing signal. This article uses a specific example to explain in detail. I hope this article will help you.

I installed ADSL. In order to avoid "getting a computer" with others, I deliberately brought my "old man" back to my house. If you want to connect two computers to the Internet at the same time, you cannot have no vro. The home decoration didn't reserve a network cable, so I bought a wireless router.

I originally expected A network connection solution: computer A directly connects to the vro for Internet access through the network cable; computer B connects to the vro for Internet access through the wireless network adapter (computer B itself does not have A network card, and another purchase. The idea is good, but it is not ideal only after implementation. Computer B receives very low routing signals, sometimes even no signal. The direct consequence is that computer B cannot normally browse the Internet, with extremely low network speed and high disconnection rate.

As a result, I immediately opened the router specification and read it carefully. According to the specification, the indoor coverage can be up to 300 meters. My family is only 100 square meters in total! Let's take a look at the precautions. There are still conditions: different environments. How can this problem be solved? I searched on the Internet. It seems that many people are having the same troubles as me-the wireless routing signal is weak. After combining some suggestions, I conducted a practical test for several consecutive days and finally found my eye. Now the route signal received by computer B can be maintained at 30% ~ The Internet access is stable.

Here I will talk about my experiences over the past few days:

1. If you want to build a wireless LAN, you must design the routers and the distribution locations of each host in advance. It is best to place the routers in the central hub of the entire space.

2. The ability of wireless routing signals to pass through the wall is weak, especially the main wall with reinforced bars. Basically, the signal of my vro is weak after it passes through two walls. (Normal brick walls are slightly better)

3. Minimize the block between the host and the wireless router, and do not have a metal block because the Metal Blocks the signal.

4. If you want excellent wireless performance, we recommend that you choose a vro with detachable antennas.

5. the router placement position should not be too low.

6. Wireless routers should be used to avoid interference sources such as cordless phones, microwave ovens, and radios. Currently, all wireless routes support "changing the signal frequency band" to avoid the commonly used frequency bands of some devices.

7. If your host uses a PCI wireless Nic, do not set the front of the host to the router. (After my tests, you can route the back of the host to adjust the antenna to increase the signal strength by about 20%)

8. If you want to use it in a large space (beyond the coverage of wireless routes), you can purchase a Wireless AP (relay), but the price is relatively high.

Wireless routing devices and wireless network cards are not very expensive now. The installation and maintenance of wireless networks are more convenient than traditional methods, saving you a step in home decoration. The popularity of laptops, it also drives the rapid development of wireless Internet access. You may wish to try wireless.
