Weak or No WiFi in Some Rooms in Brent

When Wi‑Fi is fine in one part of the house and weak or dead in others, the cause is usually where the router is and how the signal travels. In Brent homes, router placement and obstacles (walls, appliances) are often the main factors.

Why Some Rooms Lose Signal

• the router is too far from where people actually use the internet
• the signal has to pass through several walls or past large appliances
• the router is old and can’t cover the whole home
• too many devices are competing on the same band

What to Try

1. Place the router closer to the middle of where you use the internet most.
2. Put it up high and in the open, not inside a cabinet or behind furniture.
3. After each change, test in the weak room to see if it improved.
4. For larger homes, consider mesh Wi‑Fi or an extra access point.

FAQ

Should I buy a new router first?
Usually try better placement and placement changes before replacing equipment.

Is this because my plan is too slow?
It can be, but dead zones are often a coverage and placement issue, not just speed.

Can installers help with Wi‑Fi setup?
Yes. Alabama-based installers can suggest placement and equipment options that work for your layout.
