Place the router near a window if you want to access the network outside.

Keep the number of walls and ceilings between your router and the other devices on your network to a minimum.

If the signals hit a wall at an angle, the signals appear much larger and decreases its strength.

Position the devices connected to your network so the signals will go straight through a wall rather than at an angle.As close to the center of your home network area as possible, especially if you have a large area to cover or thick/dense walls.Away from any large metal objects, heat sources, moisture, excessive dust, or extreme cold.At least 10 feet from other Wi-Fi network or transmitting devices such as Bluetooth adapters, cordless phones, microwave ovens, baby monitors, or even the thin metal layer found in most mirrors to avoid potential interference.

Before installing your wireless home network, you should consider placing your router at a location to ensure you aren’t limiting the range by its distance to any barriers or interferences that may impact the wireless signal.
