Some people suffer from poor internet speed in their homes despite subscribing to expensive packages, so what are the reasons?
The Life Hacker blog said there are "a lot of obstructions in or around your home, which can limit your Wi-Fi capabilities."
Some believe that "wi-fi" is the Internet in itself, but this is not true. They are radio waves that allow your devices to communicate with your "ROuter", which in turn connects to the Internet.

| Internet speed at home is affected by many things |
1- Home:
If the internet speed is poor, your home may be to blame, if it is located on a public street, where your WiFi signals will find it difficult to pass through walls, concrete floors and steel nails.

2- Household appliances
Experts say that appliances in the kitchen , such as the dishwasher, refrigerator and oven, are all "big metal boxes". It is known that "Wi-Fi" does not interact well with metals .
And if radio signals pass through your kitchen, household appliances may affect the strength of your internet.
3- TV
A flat-screen TV is a huge sheet of metal, and therefore, it may be a device to block Wi-Fi signals from the rest of the rooms in your house. The same applies to mirrors.
4- Old technology:
For example, Bluetooth devices may affect your Wi-Fi network, given that this type of device was designed in the past and did not take into account modern technology .
In conclusion, the "Life Hacker" blog advised that you put your router in an open place as much as possible, so that it is not obstructed by metal hardware or any of the aforementioned obstacles.
