Position Your Cable Modem Router
The cable modem router lets you access your network anywhere within the operating
range of your WiFi network. However, the operating distance or range of your WiFi
connection can vary significantly depending on the physical placement of your cable
modem router. For example, the thickness and number of walls the WiFi signal passes
through can limit the range.
Additionally, other WiFi access points in and around your home might affect your cable
modem router’s signal. WiFi access points are routers, repeaters, WiFi range extenders,
and any other device that emits a WiFi signal for network access.
Position your cable modem router according to the following guidelines:
•
Place your cable modem router near the center of the area where your computers
and other devices operate, and within line of sight to your WiFi devices.
•
Make sure that the cable modem router is within reach of an AC power outlet and
near Ethernet cables for wired computers.
•
Place the cable modem router in an elevated location, minimizing the number walls
and ceilings between the cable modem router and your other devices.
•
Place the cable modem router away from electrical devices such as these:
-
Ceiling fans
- Home security systems
- Microwaves
- Computers
-
Base of a cordless phone
- 2.4 GHz cordless phone
•
Place the cable modem router away from large metal surfaces, large glass surfaces,
and insulated walls, and items such as these:
- Solid metal doors
- Aluminum studs
- Fish tanks
