Wi-Fi issues usually come from placement, outdated hardware, or too many devices competing for one connection. Start with the low-effort checks first.
Place your router in a central open area, not inside a cabinet. Reboot both your modem and router, then test speeds from the same room and from edge rooms.
If dead zones remain, split device load where possible and upgrade older routers. For long or multi-story homes, a mesh setup usually delivers the most consistent coverage.
