My WiFi signal is very weak, how can I fix this?
Hello fellow windows 7 users,
I hope you don't mind helping me with an issue I have been having.
Let me explain my situation. A couple years ago, my dad bought a wireless router. For some reason, the signal on it was very weak. We tried tweaking the settings, but no results were produced. We then proceeded to buy another router, in case the one we had was a lemon, it wasn't. Same results from this one too. Then, when we made the switch from TWC to AT&T, we acquired yet another router, which is the one we currently have. We hoped that it was our service provider that was giving us the weak signal, but with AT&T it is exactly the same. We are stumped as to why this is so.
We live in a one story house, and by the time I get to my garage, where I have my brand new Xbox setup, I either get 1 or 0 bars. So it is impossible for me to use the live points I just paid $50 for.
Our router is in a cabinet, but I assume that doesn't make too much of a difference because so is our neighbors, and I get a full 3 bars from their wifi IN MY HOUSE.
So anyways, I would greatly appreciate any input any of you may have as to why we are unable to get a solid strong wifi signal. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
***PS: I am going to go to sleep now as it is rather late, but I am going to check this thread after I get back from school tomorrow, or before school if I have the time. Sorry ***
