1 Position Your Router in a Central Location

First, place your router near the center of your home. Keep it away from walls, large furniture and other objects that may block the signal. A central, open location helps your devices connect more easily and provides better coverage throughout your home.

Cirrinity’s Ultimate Wi-Fi service includes whole-home optimization and professional installation. Our experienced technicians will set up your system to provide the best possible Wi-Fi experience.

2 Use Wired Connections for Devices That Need Stability

Next, connect devices that need a strong and consistent connection directly to your router. For example, gaming consoles and desktop computers often perform better with an Ethernet cable.

A wired connection can reduce delays and provide greater stability. As a result, you may experience smoother gaming, faster downloads and fewer interruptions.

3 Remove Old Devices From Your Network

Old or unused devices can slow down your Wi-Fi network. Therefore, regularly review the devices connected to your network and remove any you no longer use.

The Cirrinity Protect app makes it easy to manage connected devices. Removing unused devices can free up bandwidth and improve Wi-Fi performance for everything else in your home.

4 Prioritize Important Internet Activities

In addition, you can use MyPriorities in the Cirrinity Protect app to manage how your bandwidth is used. This ExperienceIQ feature lets you prioritize activities such as streaming, online gaming and work applications.

For example, you can give work applications priority during an important video call. You can also prioritize streaming to help reduce buffering during movie night.

5 Extend Your Coverage With a Wi-Fi Mesh Satellite

Finally, consider adding a GigaSpire Wi-Fi Mesh Satellite if you have a large home or areas with weak coverage. A mesh satellite extends your router’s signal and helps eliminate Wi-Fi dead zones.

A mesh system uses multiple access points to create seamless coverage throughout your home. Best of all, Cirrinity technicians can assess your home, identify areas that need better coverage and install the right equipment for you.
