Power cycle your modem
Location of your modem
Check your Internet Speed
Turn your modem, router or access points off then on again.
Where you place your modem and your Fetch box in your home can make a big difference to Wi-Fi signal
strength, performance and reliability.
•
Put your modem near to the main areas in which you use the Internet or in the middle of your home.
•
If your modem is too far away from your Fetch box you may not get the best signal.
•
Don’t place your modem next to a window or underground.
•
Household devices like cordless phones and microwaves can interfere with Wi-Fi so make sure your
modem or your Fetch box aren’t near these.
•
Don’t put your Fetch box inside a heavy cupboard or metal.
•
Rotating your Fetch box slightly to the left or right (30 degrees or so) or moving it away from the wall a
little, can improve Wi-Fi.
Do this check as close as possible to where you’re using your Fetch box. On a computer or smartphone
connected to your Wi-Fi network go to
www.speedtest.net
and run the test. You need at least 3 Mbps, if it’s
less, turn off other devices in your home that are using the Internet and run the speed test again. If this doesn’t
help, contact your broadband provider about ways to improve your Internet speed.
