Six Steps to Optimizing WiFi

Airspace

Limit the number of Wi-Fi networks in the same location. Our Wi-Fi devices select the best available frequency, however, routers fighting over the same frequency may cause slow speeds and connection issues. 

Placement

Proper placement of the access point is key. Don’t place under desks or in confined spaces. Access points located near the guests and at a higher altitude, work best! Bring out that ladder to mount on the ceiling where applicable. Open spaces with fewer walls also improve Wi-Fi connectivity.  

Antennas

Know your access point antennas. Point the antennas in the direction you want to broadcast. Make sure they are up and in the open for the best possible signal.  

Bandwidth

Control bandwidth and limit network thieves with time and/or data allowance over your Wi-Fi network. BY limiting time or data everyone gets a fair share of the Wi-Fi.  

ISP

Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) has the most impact on your Wi-Fi speed and connectivity. Be sure to purchase enough upload/download speeds to accommodate your business and guests.  

Hardware

In large areas, additional access points for steady connectivity across the venue may be necessary. For a little extra boost in hard to reach places, try a Wi-Fi repeater to increase Wi-Fi signal.  

Additional Resources

Need a little more guidance on setting up a proper Wi-Fi network? Occasionally you will run into a pesky firewall or IP address conflict. While a bit more complicated, often not difficult to overcome. You can call your ISP to check for firewall settings, or contact Technical Support to help get you online with speedy Wi-Fi!
