How to improve your Wireless internet connection
On tonight's Tech Check, Chase and Sam talked about improving your WiFi internet connection. Here are the four tips we gave:

1. Have your router in a central location, elevated off the floor, and away from potential sources of interference, like metal filing cabinets, wireless phones, etc.

2. It is best to use wireless equipment manufactured by the same company - i.e., use a Belkin router with a Belkin wireless card, etc - this doesn't make a huge difference, and you shouldn't replace a piece of equipment that is working well - but it's a good tip if you are buying new wireless equipment.

3. If you are continually losing your wireless signal, or it fluctuates from low to high, then enter into your routers settings and change the channel. Don't know how to do this? Go to the router manufacturer's homepage to look for instructions, or simply google it.

4. Finally, consider using a wireless repeater, or a high gain antenna. More information about all of these steps can be found in the links below:

We hope this information improves your wireless computing experience!
