5 Tips to Optimize Your Home Wi-Fi
There are few things more frustrating than losing your internet connection right when you’re about to stream your favorite show or send an email for work. Fortunately, there are a few things you can do to prevent your connection from dropping. Follow these tips to optimize your Wi-Fi connection:

- Don’t set up your router in the corner of the room.
- Rather, place your router in a central location, up high, and within view in the room where you most use the internet.
- Avoid placing your router near brick walls or concrete.
- Signals can only travel so far, and concrete and brick absorb your router’s Wi-Fi signals and weaken their strength.
- Keep your router away from the kitchen.
- Kitchens are full of metal objects and appliances that scatter and deflect your router’s signal.
- Strategically position your router’s antenna.
- Place the Gateway vertically if you want to spread your Wi-Fi signal horizontally. If you want the Wi-Fi to spread vertically between floors, place the Gateway horizontally.
- Extend your Wi-Fi
- Our powerful gateways provide excellent coverage, but larger homes may require additional coverage. Be sure to ask your technician about AT&T Smart Wi-Fi Extenders.
