What will be an ideal response?

Answer 1

If you reside in a large apartment or house and use a wireless network, you may find that you either experience poor network performance or you are unable to access the network in certain locations. These problems may be related to a weak wireless signal in your home. Various options are available to strengthen a wireless signal to increase network performance and ensure you have a wireless connection throughout your home. The following points describe how to strengthen a wireless signal:• If your wireless router or wireless access point has an antenna(s), make sure the antenna(s) is extended completely.• If you are able to remove the antenna(s) from your wireless router or wireless access point, consider replacing it with a wireless signal booster. Check your device's and the wireless signal booster's documentation to determine whether it will work with your device.• If possible, position the wireless router or wireless access point in a central location of your home and away from appliances or other electronic devices that may degrade the signal.• Purchase a range extender for your wireless router or wireless access point. Some range extenders are compatible only with specific wireless routers or wireless access points, and others are universal. Make sure the range extender you purchase is compatible with your device. Once installed, follow the range extender's instructions to enable it on your network.• If you still experience problems with the strength of your wireless signal after following the suggestions above, consider replacing your wireless router or wireless access point with a newer model. ?
