Wi-Fi dead zones in your home? Here's Who to Call
Rooms or areas where the Wi-Fi signal drops to zero or becomes unusably slow are typically caused by the router's placement, thick walls (brick, concrete, or plaster with metal lath), interference from neighboring networks, or an outdated router that cannot cover the home's square footage. A smart-home installer can perform a site survey, recommend optimal router or mesh access point placement, run Ethernet backhaul where needed, and configure the network for seamless roaming — eliminating dead zones without unsightly cable runs.
