How to use a handy wireless device to find dead zones?

Use a handy wireless device to find the dead zones. You have to keep an eye on the strength bar signal of the handy wireless device. After finding the dead zones, start placing the router at an angle and location. Now, check for the interfering devices. Most of the interfering devices travel on radio waves.

Check for any update available for your router on regular basis. Depending on router to router, data travel on different wireless bands and channels. Most of the technicians recommend channels like 1,6,11. These channels sometimes really make a difference to the signal strength and the range issue.
