【Solved】Is your Wi-Fi slow? Double your speed just by changing the “Location” of the device!

Hi! It’s Sensei.
Even though you finally bought SoftBank Air (ソフトバンクエアー) or a Home Router (ホームルーター), are you frustrated because “the internet is slow!”?

Actually, the speed of Wi-Fi is determined by the “Location (Okiba / 置き場所)”. Even if the device isn’t bad, if the location is poor, the signal won’t reach you.
Today, I (Sensei) will teach you 3 “magic rules to strengthen the signal” that anyone can do immediately.

Rule 1: Place it right next to a Window (Mado / 窓)

Home routers catch signals from base stations (signal towers) outside.
If you place it deep inside a room or in a closet (Oshiire / 押し入れ), the walls will get in the way and the signal will become weak.

Rule 2: Keep the height at “1 meter or more”

Wi-Fi signals have a tendency to spread sideways or downwards rather than moving towards the floor.
If you place it directly on the floor, the signal will be absorbed by the ground and won’t reach far.

Try placing it about 1 meter high, such as on a Table (Teburu / テーブル) or a Color Box (Kara Bokkusu / カラーボックス). Just by doing that, Wi-Fi will connect more easily anywhere in the room.

Rule 3: Don’t place “Enemies (Teki / 敵)” around it

Wi-Fi signals have two things they are weak against. If you place it near these, the signal will die.

Summary: Where is the best place?

The answer is, “On a high table near the window”!

If your Wi-Fi is slow now, first try moving its location. It’s the best way to speed up your internet right now without spending any money.
