How to Boost Wi-Fi Speed: Everyone is bothered by low internet speeds at home, whether you're watching a movie on Netflix or scrolling through YouTube. Many people who work from home also experience problems with slow Wi-Fi speeds. Sometimes, even after changing routers or repositioning them, the speed remains unchanged. Other devices in the home may be hindering the speed. Tech experts say that keeping your Wi-Fi router away from other gadgets can immediately improve your internet speed.

Gadgets Block Signal
The Sun reports that we often place routers near objects that impair their performance. Experts say that routers should be kept away from Bluetooth devices like Alexa or Google Home speakers. These gadgets are found in every home these days, but placing them near the router can weaken the Wi-Fi signal.

Keep Bluetooth Devices Away
Both Bluetooth devices and Wi-Fi routers use the same radio frequency. When these two devices are close to each other, their frequencies conflict, which reduces internet speed. For example, if your router and Bluetooth speaker are placed on the same table, the signal may be disrupted. Therefore, if you want faster internet, keep your router a little further away from the Bluetooth device.

Keep these devices away from the router, too.
In addition to Bluetooth devices, some other devices can slow down your Wi-Fi, such as microwaves, baby monitors, and cordless phones. All of these devices use radio frequencies, which can interfere with the Wi-Fi signal. Especially when a microwave is running, it can further weaken your router's signal. Therefore, keeping the router away from these devices is a smart approach.

Keep Wi-Fi at a higher level.
If your internet is slow, try moving your router away from other devices in the house before switching to a more expensive plan or changing service providers. Place it in an open area, away from Bluetooth devices, microwaves, or other electronics. Keeping the router at a higher level may improve the signal. This small step can instantly increase your internet speed, without spending a single rupee.
