Not safe for work
Well… WiFi is bidirectional. It may be faster receiving but the device sending… Other story than the tcp handshakes…
No because the fan that is boosting the Wi-Fi to you would prevent your computer requests to the Wi-Fi box.
So while it’ll be easier for you to get a YouTube video It would be harder for you to actually type a search. 👍
No no, everyone knows you’re supposed to put a mirror behind it, duh.
Funnily enough this may actually have a positive impact
People used to create tinfoil, tin can or wok based reflectors for WiFi to guide the omnidirectional signal into becoming a directional one.
I think the reflective part of some mirrors is essentially tin foil, so it probably would have a mild boosting effect in the direction of the mirror
Edit: in fact if OP’s fan has a rounded metal cage on it, you could take the front half off and you’ve basically got a WokFi setup there, with added danger
The wifi beams come out in all direction. You can help boost the wifi by placing a mirror behind the router. Then the rays will be reflected back to you and not wasted.
I’m about 62% sure this is a joke…
Please help, I’m clueless about this kind of stuff.
It’s the same principle of al satellite dish and it works, but I’m 86% sure that mirrors won’t affect wifi, so we’re still not at 100% but getting there.
Depends on what frequency your “mirror” mirrors.
A traditional one reflects higher frequency of electromagnetic rays (visible light) than what you need for wifi (in the microwave frequencies)
