Best option is to use a mesh with a router on every floor

I vacuum mine. :)

8:15 to tell people to set 2 anttenas u and 1 at a 45. In old R/C Modrl Planes on 72 Mhz you would see guys point there Anttenas at the plane when it was farthest away and wonder why it Crashed or just Flew away. Even worse noe with 2.4Ghz Radios point the Antena at the Plane when it farthest away.

It's unfortunate but a lot of entry level IOT devices on the market still only support 2.4 GHz networks. I have 2 smart outlet plugs and 2 indoor IP cams that only work with the 2.4GHz band. Even though I use auto channel mode, sometimes especially the IP cams have hard time due to other networks in the same building.

Great explanation. And explains why chrome TV and my phone don't always connect. Thanks!

Orientating your antenna is only going to help the signal toward the east.

My router has a dedicated spot on the main fuse box which is on the living room wall. The spot is like a sleeve slot so the router base is sideways on the wall vertically. So the antennas can mostly point left, right and straight into the room with some up and down adjustability. It works quite well, the coverage in the bedroom is decent and as I live in an apartment it won't radiate too much outside the front door to the building hallway which is better security wise I guess. But inspired by this video, I was able to get a better signal into the bedroom whic is nice.

you are not a pro? right?

This is overly simplistic- RF propagation from vertical antennas does not work quite like that. And it's not just the antennas that radiate RF- the router chassis itself is also radiating to some degree. Also, you have not addressed beamforming and other adaptive behavior that the more capable routers employ.

For my router there are no antennas😂

Toastmasters limits talks to 7 minutes.

Spectrum is slowing down my streaming box and actually blocking some apps. Is there a setting in my modem(spectrum) to help or unblock what spectrum is doing? I own my router( nighthawk). Thanks.

So we shouldn't use really smart functions (like ANY 2G - 5G cellular network ALREADY USES) just beacouse your wireless speakers are dumm???

thanks

Whoever wants their router to be pretty (all antennas pointing vertically) and still have good coverage across secerall floors there is a solution: Place 1 (or more) wifi acsess point per floor

U talk too much unnecessary

My ethernet is 500 mbps while my wifi is 250mbps You seem to have different results than I do. Upload speed is roughly 18mbps for both

Being a home channel we will keep it simple... If the device was centrally located, like it's supposed to be, you wouldn't have had an issue. There's a lot left on the table here. What bands are using the external antennas? Are there also internal antennas? What DBi are the antennas? Do you understand the radiation bubble shape based on DBi? Do you understand the negative impact you've created on beamforming? My best advice, since you're doing it wrong, is to learn some cool stuff and try again.

Dude. Can you make a video to choose a better laptop for office use like 4-6 hrs everyday max and apps like ms excel, powerbi and small documents editing and sometimes for video editing. core i5 processor 12-14th vs amd ryzen series processor which is equivalent to core i5 performance

What you do when you angle the antenna like that is increasing coverage but sacrifice performance. Most Wifi routers have signal processing to boost the signal coming in by taking the signal from each antenna and creating one strong signal (When you move the antenna around you will loose that feature). So what you gain in your basement you will loose in the office/living room. But if you only need coverage please go ahead :)

Yup I have it 2x speed lol

Hi finally starts to get to the point at 5:32. By now, however, I have lost interest and won't watch the rest.

5:38 "make sure the *face* of the antenna..." These are *dipole* antennas. There is no 'face'. What matters is that at least one antenna is perpindicular to the direction you want signal. You can flop that antenna down to the side, it doesn't matter where the flat surface points - that's just plastic. Otherwise a good PSA...

1:40 A nit: the antennas aren't just for broadcasting, they also receive.

IMO The Modem should be able to have a built in Router, I think it sucks to buy a second device adding more cords in your home

Thanks for your sharing

Just use mesh system

A crayon drawing would've been sufficient.

Hey thanks for telling my problem but is there any solution if the max link speed is 100 Mbps and i cant get it more higher because of my hardware i guess

Watch on 2x to save 5 mins of your life

incorrect info as well , and antenna's have tuned spacing based on their wave lengths etc to stop them clashing with each other

You can adjust them all you want. It never has any effect and Wi-Fi stays poor. There's too much mis advertising . Tried it with many routers.

Does ISP sets how many upload and download channels should be locked based on Internet speed plan??????

This could have been a 2 minute video without the senseless padding and repetitions. And it still would've been useless for most people.

Two minutes of information squeezed into ten. Remember, ol' son, two year-olds won't be viewing this issue. And, yes, hey, it's us here in the camera.

What you can do, you can add your guest network with a password or with no password

Another Ham operator here. I had to watch this a couple of times to understand EXACTLY what you were saying -- in obvious layman rather than technical terms. You initially threw me when you said that your vertically positioned antennas broadcasted on a horizontal plane (of course i paraphrase). I would guess you understand antenna theory pretty well, yet I don't think I heard the term polarization even once from you. The way you explained it, is adequate and was done well enough, but you can see all the butt-hurt folks (mostly ham radio guys) who ONLY recognize the use of "Vertical" and "Horizontal" (when speaking in antenna terms) as a form of polarization. In their technical world, when an antenna is oriented vertical, it is polarized vertical and the receiving antenna generally receives in the same vertical polarization. You obviously have lots of ham radio guys who watch you so you maybe should make some clarifications for them -- otherwise a lot of those old grumpy SAD HAMS will jump you in a heartbeat, thinking you dont know what you are talking about. You ARE correct (polarization aside) as a vertical antenna transmits it resonates (1/2 of the wave oscillates vertically upward and then the other 1/2 of the wave oscillates vertically downward -- in a wave pattern, perpendicularly away from the orientation of the antenna), if it is a vertically orientated antenna, it does radiate away from the antenna toward the horizon mostly in a horizontal direction as you say, (but for the ham guys somewhere between the presently controversial 5 degrees from the horizon to even near vertical -- nearly straight up). Don't let this ancient, old Ham Radio farts get you down. They know everything and if you don't believe them they will try and tell you again, and again, just in more brusk terms. They are bone-headed, sad, and unable to communicate to anyone under the age of 90. You are pretty darned correct in just what you say. You just use terms that are more modern and able to be understood by the young folks. Keep up the good work.

I can tell that you are not a IT professional. One uses a network analyzer to see all of the channels that are being used and what channels are overlapping your network signal. Then you use the sub channel from your Wi-Fi to get the best performance you can. Also you can make your channels a priority over the others. Next time when u do a TH-cam video pls do more research on the topic so you can truly help out someone understand what’s going on. Thanks

as simple as that you got your self a like, subscribe and comment and thanks for the very well done explanation and please continue making content like that

What happens if I want to get a door bell that only to 2.4GHz WiFi and does not support 5GHz WiFi? It won't function???

Bloody hell! Just get a mesh WIFI.

Good information

CONSTANT WHITE LIGHT. I HAVE NO LAN CABLE

Gotta play at 1.75x speed. The slooooooooooow speaking is torture.

subscription gang, first. On topic, could we just called a modem an ADC/DAC 🤔

I had a similar router and would angle one vertically, one horizontal and one to the side. Worked fine.
