当无线网络变弱时，事情会变得很慢，并且您会经常断开连接。您已经知道在信号较弱的网络上工作是多么令人讨厌。10/8/7 会在信号强度较弱时通知您。但是您可以采取哪些措施来改善无线网络信号或接收？
提高无线网络速度
如何改善无线网络信号？这里有一些有用的提示。
- 将您的无线路由器(Wireless Router)或接入点(Access Point)放在中心位置(A Central Location)
- 尽可能移除障碍物
- 使用高增益天线
- 停止(Stop Using)在计算机中使用基于卡的适配器
- 使用无线中继器
- 升级路由器(Router)和适配器的固件(Firmware)
- 移至 802.11n。
1]将您的无线路由器(Place Your Wireless Router)或接入点(Access Point)放在中心位置(A Central Location)
您需要检查您家中安装的无线网络的中心点，并相应地放置无线路由器。如果您的房子由两层组成，并且您希望从任何一层访问网络，您可能希望将路由器放在架子顶部，以便两层都能获得正确的信号。同样，检查所有房间将使用路由器的位置，并将路由器放置在每个房间或多或少等距离的地方。
如果你把路由器放在角落的房间里，那个房间的信号会很好，但是到房子另一个角落的房间可能会接收到微弱的信号。此外，在这种情况下，大部分信号都会移出房屋，您需要对网络进行密码保护，以免其他人开始使用它。
2]如果可能的话，移除障碍物
虽然您无法移动房屋墙壁，但您可以将其他障碍物移至无线信号。这些包括金属架子、衣橱等。您还需要将路由器从外墙移开，即标记房屋外部界限的墙壁。金属物品会阻碍无线信号的路径，因为信号沿直线传播，并且无法在障碍物处弯曲。将信号朝向外墙放置会将大部分信号强度传递给您的邻居。
3]使用高增益天线
不同路由器型号自带的默认天线是全向的。这意味着它们向所有方向发送信号。在这种情况下，如果您的路由器朝向外墙放置，一半的信号会传到室外。如果是可拆卸天线，换成高增益天线，改善无线信号。高增益天线可让您将信号聚焦在您想要的角度。
4]停止(Stop Using)在计算机中使用基于卡的适配器
如果您的笔记本电脑或计算机具有内置无线网络功能，那就没问题了。如果没有，并且您使用的是基于卡的无线网络适配器，那么您的 PC 很可能无法与路由器“对话”。这意味着，尽管您的路由器向您的计算机发送了良好强度的信号，但基于卡的无线网络适配器没有发送回适当强度信号的功能。为了使无线网络正常运行，路由器和计算机都应该能够正常通信。我建议用USB(USB)无线网络适配器替换基于卡的无线适配器。使用USB(USB)无线网络适配器的另一个好处是它们采用了高增益天线，可以改善您的无线网络。
5]使用无线中继器
就像无线电台在固定距离使用中继器拦截微弱信号并在发送前增强它们一样，您可以在家庭网络上使用无线中继器。使用无线中继器的目的是在增强信号强度后拾取微弱信号并将其发送到特定方向。这不仅可以提高网络强度，还有助于将网络扩展到更广泛的区域。
6]升级路由器(Router)和适配器的固件(Firmware)
路由器和适配器的供应商不断更新与其产品相关的固件。(updating the firmware)更新可在供应商的网站上获得。养成定期查看这些网站以获取更新的习惯。如果您发现设备有任何更新，请升级它们。这不仅会提高您产品的性能，还会提高产品提供的安全性。
提示(TIP)：了解如何在插入以太网电缆时自动关闭 Wi-Fi。
7] 移至 802.11n
大多数网络设备都是围绕 802.11g 技术构建的。802.11n 技术就在这里，提供更快的速度和更好的稳定性。考虑通过更换旧路由器和网络适配器来迁移到 802.11n。此外，在购买设备时，请从单一供应商处购买所有设备以获得更好的性能。
如果您的Windows PC 遇到WiFi 性能差或Wi-Fi 信号低的(Low Wi-Fi signal)问题，请检查此项，以了解如何提高 WiFi 速度和信号强度以及覆盖区域(Increase WiFi Speed and Signal strength and coverage area)。更改WiFi 漫游灵敏度(WiFi Roaming Sensitivity)或攻击(Aggressiveness)性以改善Wi-Fi接收和性能。
以上提示有助于改善无线信号。如果您知道任何提高无线网络强度的重要信息，请与我们分享。(The above tips help improve the wireless signal. If you know anything important to improve wireless network strength, please share it with us.)
Improve Wireless Network Speed On Windows 10
When the wireless network goes weak, things go slow, and yoυ gеt disconneсtеd too often. You alrеady know how irritating it is to wоrk on a nеtwork with weak signals. 10/8/7 notifies you when the signal strength is weak. But what are the steps you can take to improve the wireless network signal or reception?
Improve Wireless Network Speed
How can you improve the wireless network signal? Here are some tips that will help.
- Place Your Wireless Router or Access Point At A Central Location
- Remove Obstructions If Possible
- Use A High Gain Antenna
- Stop Using Card-Based Adaptors In Computers
- Use A Wireless Repeater
- Upgrade The Firmware Of Router And Adapters
- Move to 802.11n.
1] Place Your Wireless Router or Access Point At A Central Location
You need to check out the central point of the wireless network you have installed in your home and place the wireless router accordingly. If your house consists of two floors and you wish to access the network from any of the floors, you may want to place the router on top of a shelf so that both floors get proper signals. Similarly, check out what all rooms will be using the router and place the router in a place from where each of the rooms is more or less at an equal distance.
If you place the router in a corner room, you will get good signals in that room, but the room to the other corner of the house may receive weak signals. Also, in this case, most of the signals will move out of the house, and you need to password protect the network so that others don’t start using it.
2] Remove Obstructions If Possible
While you cannot move the house walls, you can move other obstacles to wireless signals. These include metal shelves, almirahs, etc. You also need to move away from the router from the external walls, that is, the walls marking the external limits of the house. Metal items will obstruct the path of wireless signals as the signals travel in a straight line and do not have the capability to bend at obstructions. Placing the signals towards the outer walls will give away most of the signal strength to your neighbors.
3] Use A High Gain Antenna
The default antenna that comes with different router models is omnidirectional. This means that they send signals to all the directions. In such cases, if your router is placed towards the outer walls, half the signals go outside the home. If it is a detachable antenna, replace it with the high gain antenna to improve the wireless signal. A high gain antenna allows you to focus the signals at the angles you want.
4] Stop Using Card-Based Adaptors In Computers
If your laptop or computer has built-in wireless networking capability, it is fine. If not, and you are using card-based wireless network adaptors, the chances are that your PCs won’t be able to “talk back” to the router. This means that although your router sends signals of good strength to your computers, the card-based wireless network adapters do not have the functionality to send back signals of proper strength. For wireless networks to function properly, both the router and computers should be able to communicate properly. I suggest replacing the card-based wireless adapters with USB wireless network adapters. Another benefit of using USB wireless network adapters is that they employ the high gain antenna that will improve your wireless network.
5] Use A Wireless Repeater
Just as the radio stations use a repeater at regular distances to intercept weak signals and boost them before sending them forward, you can use wireless repeaters on your home network. The purpose of using wireless repeaters is to pick up weak signals and send them into a particular direction after boosting the signal strength. This will not only allow for improving the network strength, but it also helps in expanding the network to a wider area.
6] Upgrade The Firmware Of Router And Adapters
Vendors of routers and adaptors keep on updating the firmware related to their products. The updates are available on the vendors’ websites. Make it a habit to check out these websites for updates at regular intervals. If you find any updates to your devices, upgrade them. This will not only enhance your products’ performance, but it also improves the security provided by the product.
TIP: See how you can automatically turn off Wi-Fi when Ethernet cable is plugged in.
7] Move to 802.11n
Most of the network devices are built around 802.11g technology. 802.11n technology is here and offers faster speeds with better stability. Consider moving to 802.11n by replacing your older router and network adapters. Also, when buying equipment, buy all of them from a single vendor for better performance.
Check this if your Windows PC suffers from poor WiFi performance or Low Wi-Fi signal and this to know how to Increase WiFi Speed and Signal strength and coverage area. Change WiFi Roaming Sensitivity or Aggressiveness to improve Wi-Fi reception & performance.
