Why is my WiFi signal weak?

Dave · Apr 29, 2019 ·

If you find that wireless signal strength is weak while connected to the FlashRouter’s network we recommend that you do the following:

  1. Make sure that you have the external antennas fully connected to the FlashRouter.
  2. “Forget” the wireless network on the device and then rejoin with a fresh connection. This will be different for each device but can be effective.
  3. Make sure you are within an appropriate range for the network you are using. Keep in mind that a 2.4GHz network will always have better range than 5GHz networks. Devices further away from the router should use the 2.4GHz network.
  4. Interference from your wireless environment can also cause this issue. On the Wireless > Basic Settings adjust the Wireless Channel for the network you are experiencing the issue for. Channel interference is a likely cause for weak signal strength.
