This is just good common “Ham” sense. \u00a0Unfortunately a lot of the regular folks that are not “radio active” or that have little tech ability miss this basic understanding. \u00a0Like he says the Ham<\/strong> Radio folks have been doing it farther, faster and more often than anyone else for a long time<\/strong> now. \u00a0– WD0AJG<\/p>\n

As a computer tech with over 35 years in the business, I’ve seen a lot of Internet connection<\/strong> problems. That’s especially true with WIFI<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The most common problem<\/strong> is in establishing a ‘good’ connection<\/strong> between the remote computer and the wireless router. Many people don’t realize that just because you’re receiving a signal<\/strong> from your wireless router, (AP) you still may not be able to log onto the Internet. Here’s the problem<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A weak or noisy internet connection<\/strong> is usually caused by lost or scrambled data packets. These damaged packets are constantly being ‘re-sent’ between the router and the receiving computer. This will slow down your connection<\/strong> considerably and could even keep you from getting on the Internet at all.<\/p>\n

There are several ways you can improve these weak WIFI<\/strong> signals. The easiest is to move the wireless router. If possible, try to locate your router near the center of the building<\/strong>. I’ve picked up WIFI<\/strong> signals from as far away as 1,000 feet when there were no obstacles blocking the transmission. On the other hand, I’ve also had a hard time<\/strong> just getting the signal<\/strong> to go from one<\/strong> end of a house to the other. This can be especially true if the router is located on a different floor than the receiving computer. The more walls and floors the signal<\/strong> passes through, the weaker it gets.<\/p>\n

If you can’t locate the router near the center of the building, there are several other things you can do. First, try moving the receiving computer to a different location. Even turning it in a different direction may help. Laptops often have the WIFI<\/strong> antenna built into the monitor so just turning the laptop slightly might be all you’ll need<\/strong> to do to improve the reception.<\/p>\n

In general, I’ve found that USB Internet adapters work much better than laptop internal receivers. The reason is…these external adapters come with a three to five foot cord allowing the adapter to be placed high in the air and away from obstacles that might be blocking the WIFI<\/strong> signal<\/strong>. Unfortunately, this means dragging around an extra device which is not what I really want to do. Luckily, in most cases your internal WIFI<\/strong> device will get the job done just fine.<\/p>\n

If you need<\/strong> to reach out to an AP that’s hundreds or even thousands of feet away, you’ll need<\/strong> to investigate adding a high-gain antenna and a USB Internet adapter. This is actually old technology. Ham<\/strong> radio buffs have been building<\/strong> hi-gain antennas for decades allowing them to receive signals from around the world. There are various antenna designs available that practically anyone can build. For a few dollars, you can boost your range considerably.<\/p>\n

The world record for a WIFI<\/strong> connection<\/strong> using ‘only’ a hi-gain antenna is 238 miles! You’re probably not planning on challenging any records, but it’s pretty common to see people connecting to wireless routers up to a mile or more away, just by using DIY antennas.<\/p>\n

If you’re not satisfied with your wireless Internet connection, try some of the things I’ve mentioned. They should help. If you’re still having problems then I’d look into building<\/strong> your own hi-gain WIFI<\/strong> antenna. It will provide the ultimate wireless performance. You’ll find instructions in a book called, “FREE Internet” available on Amazon.com<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
