How can I strengthen my network to get better WiFi?

In today’s work-from-home culture, having a strong WiFi connection is paramount. In order for you to have a stable and efficient WiFi, you first need a strong home network backbone to ensure success.

 

Here are a few ways to strengthen your home network to get better WiFi:

  • Place your router in a central place – preferably away from obstacles and out in the open
  • Choose the right WiFi band for your device needs (4 GHz vs. 5 GHz)
  • Use a MoCA adapter to enhance your wired network connection

 

MoCA technology “adapts” your coax TV wiring into an Ethernet connection, allowing you to extend your network coverage to every coax outlet in your home. Connecting MoCA adapters to your coaxial wiring allows you to transmit Ethernet data over your existing coaxial wiring – no wires to run, no holes to drill!  You will need at least two MoCA adapters to create a point-to-point MoCA network.

 

MoCA adapters, like Hitron’s HT-EM4 MoCA 2.5 Coax to Ethernet Adapter, create a wired connection, meaning you will have a reliable, lag-free, high-speed network to every corner of your home. All of your devices connected to this MoCA network, including your WiFi router, get faster speeds up to 1 Gbps throughout your entire home. With faster, more reliable WiFi speeds, your home office will be ready to handle work conference calls, presenting in HD and more.
