8種妨礙無線上網的家居用品
Have you ever wondered why your wifi is so slow sometimes? We gathered 8 items in your house that have the potential to slow your internet connection.
你有沒有想過為什么你的wifi有時那么慢?我們在你家里收集了8種可能會減慢你上網速度的東西。
Break wants to tell you which items are your WiFi’s main enemies. You’ll find useful tips at the end of the article that you can use to avoid encountering a bad connection, don’t miss them!
Break想告訴你哪些東西是WiFi的主要敵人。在文章的最后,你會發(fā)現(xiàn)一些有用的技巧,可以用來避免遇到糟糕的連接,不要錯過它們!
1. Metal surfaces and furniture
金屬表面和家具
Metal is a conductor, which means it absorbs electricity. Since your WiFi releases electromagnetic waves, any metal surface or object in your house will prevent the waves from spreading. If you want your internet connection to work problem free, it’s necessary to place the router away from metal.
金屬是導體,這意味著它吸收電。因為你的WiFi會釋放電磁波,所以你家里的任何金屬表面或物體都會阻止電磁波的傳播。如果你想讓你的互聯(lián)網連接工作沒有問題,有必要把路由器遠離金屬。
2. Brick and stone walls
磚石墻
Some types of walls stop your WiFi signal. Between the most common materials that prevent a reliable connection are marble, cement, concrete, plaster, and brick. This explains why in 2-floor houses, people usually experience a very weak internet connection on one of the floors. To fix this, place your router in an open area and away from walls.
有些類型的墻會阻止你的WiFi信號。最常見的阻礙可靠連接的材料是大理石、水泥、混凝土、石膏和磚。這就解釋了為什么在兩層樓的房子里,人們通常會在其中一層經歷一個非常弱的互聯(lián)網連接。要解決這個問題,把你的路由器放在一個開放的地方,遠離墻壁。
3. Mirrors
鏡子
The material that lets us see our reflection in the mirror also reflects the signal released by the router. This object acts as a shield, making the internet connection bounce. When it’s close to the router, it can make the signal strength feel slower and unstable.
這種能讓我們看到自己在鏡子里的反射的材料也能反射路由器釋放的信號。這個對象起到屏蔽的作用,使互聯(lián)網連接反彈。當它靠近路由器時,它會讓信號強度感覺更慢、更不穩(wěn)定。
4. Refrigerators and washing machines
冰箱和洗衣機
As a general rule, electrical appliances that have pipes that circulate water are not very friendly to the WiFi signal. Water can retain some of the energy from the wireless waves, which negatively affects the quality of the internet connection.
一般來說,有循環(huán)水管的電器對WiFi信號不是很友好。水可以保留無線電波的部分能量,這會對互聯(lián)網連接質量產生負面影響。
5. Christmas lights
圣誕燈
Colorful Christmas lights can also be the cause of a weak WiFi signal at home. They have sparkling chips that generate a magnetic field that interacts with the electrical waves issued by your router. In December, try keeping your router away from your Christmas tree.
五彩繽紛的圣誕彩燈也可能是家里WiFi信號弱的原因。它們有閃閃發(fā)光的芯片,可以產生磁場,與路由器發(fā)出的電波相互作用。在12月,盡量讓你的路由器遠離你的圣誕樹。
6. Baby monitors
嬰兒監(jiān)視器
These monitors generate a 2.4 GHz interference, the same as WiFi. When 2 or more devices transmit the same frequency, they use air to send their data instead of transmitting waves, like in the case of a wireless connection. Although baby monitors usually require a connection to a network to function correctly, avoid placing them too close to the router.
這些監(jiān)視器會產生2.4 GHz的干擾,就像WiFi一樣。當2個或更多的設備傳輸相同的頻率時,它們使用空氣來發(fā)送數(shù)據(jù),而不是像無線連接那樣傳輸電波。盡管嬰兒監(jiān)視器通常需要連接到網絡才能正常工作,但不要把它們放在離路由器太近的地方。
7. Drones
無人機遙控
Drones also operate at 2.4 GHz, but not all models generate that interference. It all depends on the amount of power each model needs to function.
無人機也在2.4 GHz下工作,但并非所有型號都會產生這種干擾。這完全取決于每個模型運行所需的電量。
8. Microwave
微波爐
This is another device that has a frequency spectrum similar to the one used by WiFi. If you have your router located near one, lift it to a place that’s higher than the level of the microwave. This will substantially reduce the negative effect that the microwave can have on the connection.
這是另一個擁有類似WiFi使用的頻譜的設備。如果你的路由器在微波爐附近,把它放到比微波爐高的地方。這將大大減少微波對連接的負面影響。
