Where should I position my 4G or 5G router?

Modified on Tue, 29 Apr at 9:37 AM

Learn where to position your 4G or 5G router to get the best network signal and ensure fast, reliable connectivity. Try a few different places, and see where you get the best signal strength. Your 4G or 5G router has signal lights on the front of it, and the more lights, the better the signal. 


Avoid positioning your hub with obstacles between where it sits and where you’ll be accessing your broadband. Doors, walls, and even things like refrigerators or fish tanks can affect your connection. 


We recommend placing it on a few different windowsills to see which direction gives you the strongest signal. Plus, you can always connect wifi boosters to give your whole premise a mesh wifi boost!
