How do you view the router signal? Analysis of popular topics on the entire network for 10 days
Recently, with the popularity of remote office and online education, router signal strength has become a hot topic among netizens. This article will combine the hot contents of the entire network for nearly 10 days to analyze the viewing methods and optimization techniques for router signals in detail.
1. Why pay attention to router signals?
According to the latest network usage statistics:
Use scenarios | Percentage | Signal requirements |
---|---|---|
videoconference | 42% | >-50dBm |
Online education | 35% | >-60dBm |
4K video | 28% | >-55dBm |
Smart home | twenty three% | >-70dBm |
2. How to check the router signal strength?
1.Mobile APP detection method: Recommended to use professional tools such as WiFi Analyzer
APP name | Support platform | Main functions |
---|---|---|
WiFi Analyzer | Android | Signal strength visualization |
Network Analyzer | iOS | Channel interference detection |
Fing | Dual platform | Cybersecurity testing |
2.Computer detection method:
Windows system: Enter "netsh wlan show interfaces" at the command prompt
Mac system: hold down the Option key and click on the WiFi icon
3. Signal strength reference standard
Signal strength (dBm) | Evaluation level | User experience |
---|---|---|
-30 to -50 | excellent | 4K video smooth |
-50 to -60 | good | High-definition video without lag |
-60 to -70 | generally | Web browsing is normal |
<-70 | Poor | Frequently disconnected |
4. Recent popular router signal optimization techniques
1.Location selection: The router should be placed in the center of the house, 1-1.5 meters above the ground
2.Antenna adjustment: Multi-antenna routers are recommended to use 45-degree angle placement
3.Channel optimization: Use non-overlapping channels such as 1, 6, and 11
4.Firmware upgrade: Recently, multiple brands have pushed signal optimization firmware
brand | Firmware version | Signal boost |
---|---|---|
TP-Link | 1.1.2 | 15% |
Huawei | 2.0.8 | 20% |
Millet | 3.0.1 | 12% |
5. The five most concerned issues for netizens
1. Why is 5G signal poor wall-through capability?
2. Can Mesh networking really solve the signal blind spots?
3. How to determine whether it is a router problem or a broadband problem?
4. Which routers on the market have the strongest signal?
5. How much is the signal increase in WiFi6 compared to WiFi5?
Summarize:Through scientific methods to detect and optimize router signals, the network usage experience can be significantly improved. It is recommended that users check the signal strength regularly and choose appropriate optimization solutions based on actual needs.
