4. In a remote corner of the room

As already mentioned, the antennas installed in routers usually transmit horizontally to all sides evenly. By positioning it in the far
corner of a remote room, you may be providing optimal service to the adjacent street, but not your home.

5. Behind large leafy plants

Large leaves contain a lot of water. And this is exactly what prevents the radio waves emitted by the router from spreading. The
result: the range and transmission speed decrease.
 An optimal parking space is therefore as free-standing as possible without metal in the area on the floor where the connection is
most needed.

By the way: plasterboard walls – often referred to colloquially as “plasterwall” – also dampen the WiFi signals. If such walls are
used in the house, it can also affect the connection.
