How to Improve Your Wifi

- In this video, Keith Barker covers how to use NetSpot and SweetSpots to examine channels, map coverage, and improve the connectivity of a home wireless network. It can be frustrating to invest a lot of money in access points and routers but still have issues with Wi-Fi. Keith will discuss various ways to improve your home network connectivity.
Home wireless networks are a critical aspect of modern society, particularly if you spend any time working from home.
The wireless access points and routers you use are a cornerstone of your Wi-Fi system. However, you can buy the most expensive high-end equipment available on the market and still experience connectivity issues.
In this video, Keith will briefly discuss various factors affecting your connectivity, then dial in on one specific issue: the channel your network is using.
He’ll begin by talking about the importance of assessing your Wi-Fi speed, then how to look for and move to a less crowded channel.

This is extremely useful information and with the tools to use.
I was on 2.4 GHz, 20 MHz auto-channel with 40 other networks in the spectrum (including things like the self-checkout carts from the mall across the road) until this morning. Now I'm on 5 GHz, 40 MHz with only 2 other networks across the entire spectrum, completely alone on my center channel. Took my downlaod speed from 10-20% of what I pay for to 100-110%. That's a lot more fun for sure.
Thank you, I'm tired of doing the good old trick of unplugging and plugging the wifi but with this trick I don't need to do that anymore.
Was hoping you'd show all common scenarios when choosing channel and channel width on 5ghz.
I was hoping the same thing. I literally do not ever use 2.4Ghz ever. Everything is 5Ghz.
Really good information and training on WiFi optimisation, especially with suggestions of tools to allow me & you to see when we have WiFi frequency contention.😊
Great greetings to the OG of IT. I hope all is well? Thanks for the good work done.
Thank you so much!!!
Thanks Keith 😊
Thank you
Very useful, thanks!
While I am thinking of it, I have a bunch of devices connected to my wifi (smart home devices, tablets, media boxes, gaming consoles, and computers). Do you have any tips on how to improve service with a high volume of devices connected (TV streaming seems to take a hit when other devices are utilizing the same connectivity)?
The content is highly useful and thoroughly researched. Is there a list of books or courses that you can recommend as a benefit to further our knowledge and optimize our wi-Fi residentially along with the links below? Thank you in advice. -1SP
Oh vídeo saved!!!!
Why is my WiFi download speed slower at 100Mbps and upload speed 200Mbps? What setting do I need to change?
which width should i choose for more coverage?20 or 40?
If you can find non-intersecting 40MHz go for it. If you can find one or two routers sitting on the same 40MHz and they are not noised by other frequencies - join them with exactly the same channel number, this way you will share bandwidth with them in a 'polite' way. If you can't find anything of above - stay with 802.11n 20MHz or switch to 5ghz asap.
No mention of microwaves operating on ch11 2.4? I took my Ekahau home and did a survey at my house, I live close to downtown but still well inside a residential neighborhood. I was shocked how many problem were running 80mhz channels in the 2.4 range, everyone stepping on everyone else. Madness, and these are routers that are probably shipping from the vendor that way. I'm still a proponent of 20mhz channels, unless you have a ton of IoT cameras streaming 4k do you need 40 or 80? No way.
Why do you need wifi for microwave?
what do the negative numbers on the left of the graph mean? Higher is better or lower?
Low negative numbers are better. -50 dBm is great, -60 dBm is good, and up to -70 dBm is poor. However, if you have too high of a number that can cause too much noise and can cause issues. There are ways to measure the signal strength and then associate it with a good connection. Here is one of a few courses that cover wireless technology: www.cbtnuggets.com/it-training/networking/radio-frequency-technologies
Thank you for learning with us!
School environment, 30 to 80 devices on one AP(mainly Chromebooks. Channels seem to be scattered well enough on each AP. Most will connect to the 5G as I have it set to preferred. Odd part is even if I am 3 ft away from the AP I'm still getting -65db. Figured it should be around -30. Not sure why I can't get a stronger signal. I do have it set to auto. But even on the one I have set to higg I'm still not getting good negative DB. Problem is that the Chromebooks keep disconnecting and connecting. I'm trying to see if they're attaching themselves back and forth from different APs. That doesn't seem to be the case. My interference on 5 and 2.4 isn't too bad. Any help?
