We have Wi-Fi through a different company than the one we had had for many years. They got too expensive and we found a company that gave us a monthly rate that didn't continually fluctuate. We pay the same amount each month. The Wi-Fi is a bit sketchy at times. We had to call someone out a few times when we first began the service. Then my grandson got the idea of what to do and would just reset the reutter and it was fine. It was irritating to have it go off from time to time though.
Well, now he has had a great brainstorm. We have a small fan that we were using on the stairs to get more cool air upstairs from A/C downstairs. He took that and placed it a few inches away from the back of the reutter. We have not had any intermittent Wi-Fi fluctuations at all since he did this.
Fingers are crossed.

Yes, routers do tend to get very hot in this weather.

And we were experiencing a lack of service because of it.

It is a good idea to keep your computer systems cool. He was right.

Yes. It's hard to keep it cool when the weather outside is in the triple digits.
