A recent study performed by a UK company has demonstrated that consumers may lose up to 40% of the Internet speed when they utilize Wi-Fi connections in their homes. And the reason for this significant loss is very simple: many electronic devices that can be found in modern homes (microwaves ovens, baby monitors or cordless phones) can become real obstacles for the wireless Internet signal.
When your own Wi-Fi signal is not as powerful as you expect it to be, the presence of the neighbor’s network may be an answer. It is a well known fact that the proximity of another network may lead to interferences. The majority of the Wi-Fi equipment operates on the 2.4 GHz band.
