hey, welcome back! if you have trouble loading web pages usingyour wifi on your wireless device, or your wi-fi keeps cutting out, then please watchthis video! so i bought a new wireless g and n combination router. after connecting it,we had problems right away! mostly connection issues and difficulties loading web pageson our wireless devices from some places within
Android TV keeps rebooting, our house. our cell phones, laptops, and gamingdevices were all affected. the following steps led me to a proper solution! using my android phone i installed a freeapp from the market called "wifi analyzer". then i scanned my home wifi network withmy phone using that free app. this immediately
showed me that even though my wireless g signalwas very strong throughout my house, several of my neighbour's wireless g networks wereall pushing their way into my house too, some with the same channel number as mine! thiswas a "huge" source of interference for me, as i probably was for them as well. knowingthis, i logged into my router and into the wireless 2.4 ghz settings section, where ithen "changed my channel settings" from automatic, to a "manual" channel selection which appearedempty in the wifi analyzer app i used. i rebooted my router and scanned my house again. i nowhad nobody else sharing my channel, and most importantly, those connection problems completelydisappeared. everything was fine again. upon doing the same scan within the 5 ghz band,there were no other channels conflicting with
mine. this does not mean that it won't happenin the future though. now there is one very important thing to keepin mind here. even though my router can simultaneously transmit on the 2.4 and 5ghz bands, the 2.4ghz frequency has the ability to travel easier through walls and obstructions than the 5 ghzcan, as you can see here from a scan i did in our rec room downstairs. since our deviceswill automatically connect to our stronger networks, this will lead to network slowdownsand stumbles if our neighbours 2.4 g signals at the same channel setting are mixing withours. so there you go, if you have a wireless router (wlan),neighbours, and connection problems, you might
want to think about doing what i did. you'llneed to follow the instructions from your
router's manufacturer if you want to makechanges to your settings. good luck and hopefully, you'll be able to save some time, and aggravation!until next time, check out my other videos, and thanks for watching!
