![]() ![]() but the range/performance is not great for wireless.Īll depends on the house. Yeah, unfortunately these modems are about on par with your $50-70 3rd party routers. My son games downstairs and the WiFi is so poor I bought a powerline adapter for him and it's still poor. Especially in the bedrooms upstairs were getting 10 download and 2 upload this is unacceptable. Anywhere else in the house is drastically worse. Our router is in our living room and the speeds are fine when we are in there. My suggestion is the same as the person above's: go out there, get yourself a good router (at least as good as your neighbour's - this is probably why their signal strength is better than yours, put the CODA-4582 in bridge mode (one advantage of Rogers vs Bell - a nice, clean bridge mode) and never look 1gb router WiFi signal very poorĪnyone have any suggestions on how I can improve my WiFi signal? ![]() 5GHz band is more cluttered than it used to be. That's changed somewhat in the last year or two with Bell/Rogers now supplying a lot of dual band routers and offering 'wireless TV' products based on 5GHz. If you are in an apartment/condo, then that was absolutely not true - 2.4GHz is just so insanely busy that 5GHz offered both higher speed and comparable/higher range. If you are in a rural property, absolutely. The whole '2.4GHz has longer range but slower speeds' thing is. So far I am still trying to get Rogers working, instead of eating the humble pie and go back to Bell.Īnyway, after 2 weeks of pain, and readings (Datalink on this forum being one of the best), I Finally got this morning the router changed to a Coda 4582 (white box). ![]() So far I tried to change the Chanel from Auto to ch 1 (my 2 neighbours use ch 6 and 11), but the results were not better, it was actually worse. If #1 is correct what is the most likely cause of my reversed situation? I read that 2.4G has slower speed but larger range (or stronger signal at the same location). It is quite lower than the 5G at any location of testing, including at 2 feet from the router (neighbours 2.4 from 20 feet away are stronger than mine from 2 feet away.haha.).ġ. The current issue is 2.4Ghz signal strength. The result is better signal strength on 5G ( so covering a wider range). Well, unfortunately I regret my decision and probably only “man stubbornness” prevented me so far to admit my mistake and go back (and of course all the hassle of switching.).Īnyway, after 2 weeks of pain, and readings ( on this forum being one of the best), I Finally got this morning the router changed to a Coda 4582 (white box). Reason: looking for higher speed (Bell doesn’t have Fiber in my area). So huge thanks to Brad for sharing.I recently switched from Bell (after over 20 years) to Rogers. So far, most of the shortcuts in this post are taken from Brad Strickland’s great post*. This post is a working roundup of any/all useful shortcuts that I can find for Coda 2 (code editor and FTP software). ![]()
