ANYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT WIFI
WiFi or Wireless Fidelity is a popular networking system that allows devices such as computers, smartphones, tablets, etc to connect to the internet wirelessly. Today, most people know how to use the WiFi. As long as you are in an area covered with WiFi you’ll be able to get on the internet easily. Most establishments now have WiFi access and one good reason for that is to attract customers.
WiFi connection was built using a wireless adapter to create hotspot areas in the area of a wireless router that is connected to the network to give internet access. The main advantage of a WiFi is that you can connect to the internet even without using an Ethernet cable or wired connection. Unlike before, in order for your computer to get internet connections you have to wire-connect it from the router.
What are the common causes of WiFi interference?
- Poor WiFi signal
- Physical barriers
- Coverage
Because of the interference or loss of WiFi connection, there are a few easy steps that you may do to troubleshoot your WiFi. These are follows:
- Check the signal light of the WiFi in your router. WiFi is in good status when you see the green light.
- Reboot the system.
- Unplug the modem/router – wait for about 60 seconds before plugging it back.
- Unplug the cables in the modem – check if there are no cut wires or sign of physical damage.
- Connect your laptop or desktop computer to the router/modem using the Ethernet cable – This will allow you to determine if the problem is the actual device or not.
