Are your video calls freezing or your streaming buffering endlessly? You might be blaming your internet provider, but often, your home setup is the real culprit. This Tech Tip Tuesday, we’re sharing quick ways to boost your Wi-Fi signal and improve your home internet experience.


1. Reboot Your Router Regularly - Just like your computer, your router can benefit from a quick restart. Try unplugging it for 30 seconds once a week to clear out glitches.


2. Reposition Your Router - Place your router in a central, open area of your home. Avoid tucking it in a cabinet or behind furniture—walls and electronics can interfere with the signal.


3. Limit Device Overload - Smart TVs, phones, tablets, and smart home devices all fight for bandwidth. Disconnect unused devices or set up guest networks to reduce traffic.


4. Secure Your Network - Make sure your Wi-Fi is password protected. An open network invites freeloaders who slow things down—and compromise your security.


5. Consider a Mesh System - If you have a large home or lots of dead zones, a mesh Wi-Fi system can spread strong signal across every room.

Need help optimizing your setup? Our in-home tech experts can diagnose, fix, and future-proof your Wi-Fi so your whole household can stay connected smoothly.
