Designing Your Wireless Network: Overcoming Dead Spots and Signal Challenges

Designing an effective wireless network involves understanding potential dead spots, interference from walls, and user limitations. A dead spot occurs when a device receives no wireless signal, often due to poor placement of devices or overlapping channels. Factors like elevators and the number of people can also impact performance. While wall interference is unavoidable, utilizing the right antennas—such as high-gain and directional options—can enhance coverage. Addressing these concerns will ensure a reliable network experience for all users.
