Hi, it could be that your router is near a strong electrical circuit, ie close to a cooker, microwave, television, try moving it to diff locations and see if that helps

Answer 4

You probably have a bad connection. In the bottom right corner of you computer it will tell you how many bars you have. If you have a lap top, simply move to a different area in your home. Since it is such a hassle, I would do the same with your computer as well!
