The broadband connection coming into the house is usually fine \u2014 what&#8217;s holding you back is the wireless signal between the router and your devices. The good news is that Wi-Fi problems are mostly fixable without changing your internet plan. Here are five simple ways to get faster Wi-Fi at home.<\/p>\n<h2>Before you try these tips: test first<\/h2>\n<p>Run a speed test plugged into the modem with an Ethernet cable, then run it again over Wi-Fi from where you&#8217;re having issues. If the wired result is close to your plan speed but Wi-Fi is much slower, you&#8217;ve got a Wi-Fi problem (not a broadband problem) and these tips will help. Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ozbroadbandreview.com\/blog\/how-to-test-broadband-speed\/\">guide to testing your broadband speed<\/a> walks through it.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Move your router to a better spot<\/h2>\n<p>This is the single biggest thing you can do for free. Wi-Fi signal weakens fast as it passes through walls, especially brick and concrete. The router should be:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Central in the house \u2014 not stuck in a corner or against an outside wall<\/li>\n<li>Elevated \u2014 on a shelf or sideboard, not on the floor<\/li>\n<li>Out in the open \u2014 not inside a TV cabinet or behind books<\/li>\n<li>Away from microwaves, cordless phones and other electronics<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If your router is hidden in an entertainment unit, just moving it onto the top of the unit can boost your speeds in the rest of the house significantly.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Use the 5GHz band for nearby devices<\/h2>\n<p>Modern Wi-Fi routers broadcast on two frequencies: 2.4GHz and 5GHz. They have different strengths:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>2.4GHz<\/strong> \u2014 slower (up to ~150Mbps in practice) but travels further and goes through walls better. Use for far-away devices.<\/li>\n<li><strong>5GHz<\/strong> \u2014 faster (up to ~700Mbps in practice) but shorter range. Use for devices in the same room or nearby.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Most modern phones and laptops connect to whichever is stronger automatically. Older devices may only support 2.4GHz. If your router lets you split the two bands into separate Wi-Fi network names, you can manually connect critical devices (TV, gaming console, work laptop) to the 5GHz network for faster speeds.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Upgrade your router (if it&#8217;s more than 4\u20135 years old)<\/h2>\n<p>Routers wear out and fall behind. A 5+ year old router is probably running Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) or older, has weaker antennas than modern routers, and may have known security issues.<\/p>\n<p>A modern Wi-Fi 6 router ($150\u2013$300 from TP-Link, ASUS or Netgear) will outperform almost any bundled modem your ISP gave you 5 years ago. You&#8217;ll especially notice the improvement if you have lots of connected devices \u2014 Wi-Fi 6 is much better at handling many devices simultaneously.<\/p>\n<p>If you have a large house or multiple stories, a mesh Wi-Fi system (Google Nest Wifi Pro, NETGEAR Orbi, TP-Link Deco) is usually a better choice than a single powerful router. See our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ozbroadbandreview.com\/blog\/wi-fi-range-extender-vs-mesh-network\/\">range extender vs mesh guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Reduce interference from neighbours<\/h2>\n<p>In apartment buildings and dense suburbs, lots of neighbouring Wi-Fi networks fight for the same airwaves. If you&#8217;re stuck on a crowded channel, your speed suffers even if your own router is brand new.<\/p>\n<p>Most modern routers automatically pick the least crowded channel. If yours doesn&#8217;t, log into your router admin panel and:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>For 2.4GHz, manually try channels 1, 6, or 11 (these don&#8217;t overlap with each other)<\/li>\n<li>For 5GHz, choose any channel \u2014 there are many more available and less congestion<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The 5GHz band has dramatically less neighbour interference, which is another reason to use it where you can.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Use Ethernet for critical devices<\/h2>\n<p>Wi-Fi is convenient, but Ethernet is faster, more reliable, and has lower latency. For devices that don&#8217;t move:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Plug your smart TV directly into the modem with an Ethernet cable \u2014 much smoother 4K streaming<\/li>\n<li>Wire your gaming console for lower ping in online matches<\/li>\n<li>Run a cable to your work desk if you&#8217;re on Zoom calls every day<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You don&#8217;t even need a long cable run \u2014 a 5m flat Ethernet cable along the skirting board takes 10 minutes to install and can transform performance.<\/p>\n<h2>Bonus: restart your router every few months<\/h2>\n<p>Routers run 24\/7 and accumulate small issues over time. A simple power cycle (unplug, wait 60 seconds, plug back in) fixes a surprising number of speed and dropout issues. Set yourself a reminder every 2\u20133 months.<\/p>\n<h2>What if none of this fixes it?<\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve tried all the above and Wi-Fi is still slow, your broadband itself might be the problem. Check whether your NBN plan is fast enough for your household (see our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ozbroadbandreview.com\/blog\/what-internet-speed-do-you-really-need\/\">speed guide<\/a>), and whether your provider has good evening speeds. Sometimes switching providers is the fix.<\/p>\n<h2>Wi-Fi speed FAQ<\/h2>\n<h3>Why is my Wi-Fi slower on my phone than my laptop?<\/h3>\n<p>Phones have smaller, weaker antennas than laptops. They also tend to roam around more, which can cause them to connect to a more distant 2.4GHz signal even when 5GHz is available nearby. This is normal.<\/p>\n<h3>Should I get a Wi-Fi 7 router instead of Wi-Fi 6?<\/h3>\n<p>Only if you&#8217;re future-proofing or you have many devices that already support Wi-Fi 7. Most current devices (phones, laptops, TVs) are Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 6E. Wi-Fi 7 routers are noticeably more expensive and the real-world benefit is small for most households today.<\/p>\n<h3>Why does my Wi-Fi slow down in the evening?<\/h3>\n<p>That&#8217;s usually broadband congestion, not Wi-Fi. Your provider&#8217;s network slows down during peak hours. Check by running a speed test over Ethernet during the slow time \u2014 if Ethernet is also slow, the issue is your broadband.<\/p>\n<h3>Will a Wi-Fi extender double my speed?<\/h3>\n<p>No. A range extender increases coverage but doesn&#8217;t increase speed. Devices connected through the extender often get half the speed of devices connected directly to the main router. A mesh Wi-Fi system is generally better than an extender.<\/p>\n<h2>Compare NBN plans<\/h2>\n<p>If your Wi-Fi is fast but your broadband plan can&#8217;t keep up, it might be time to upgrade.
