WiFi networks tend to be slow. The competition between WiFi devices and the dynamic communication media of radio waves is a sensitive technology, and many Settings and situations may slow down.
Old wireless and security protocols
Setting up a wifi network with older security protocols significantly reduces the performance of wifi devices.For example, 802.11ac can support data rates of over 1,000 Mbps. However, if you configure WEP or WPA security, the data rate will be limited to 54 Mbps. This restriction is due to the use of the temporary key integrity protocol (TKIP) encryption method.Therefore, to ensure that the old WiFi security method does not reduce network speed, only WPA2 security is enabled using the advanced encryption standard.
Use the 5GHz band
- There are 11 channels in the 2.4 GHz band in North America, and only three non-overlapping channels are available with the default 20 MHz, and only one channel is provided with 40 MHz.
- Because adjacent aps should be located on different non-overlapping channels, the 2.4 GHz band may become very slow.The 5GHz band provides up to 24 channels.
- Not all aps support all channels, but all channels do not overlap if 20 MHz is used. With 40 MHz, there are as many as 12 non-overlapping channels.
As a result, your AP and any other adjacent networks are less likely to interfere with the same frequency, and your wifi will be less disruptive and faster in speed.Using any frequency band on the AP can increase the chance of a dual-band client connecting to 5 GHz instead of 2.4 GHz.
With the development of science and technology, the development and promotion of 5G cellular mobile network will become an important development trend in the future.
At present, there are also many technology manufacturers studying the technology related to 5G network.
Signal jammers GPS, for example, it belongs to a kind of cell phone jammer device, now 5 g signals, however, were not popular, so its development is relatively slow some.
WiFi networks and offers solutions to improve performance. One significant factor is the use of older wireless and security protocols, such as WEP or WPA, which restrict data rates to 54 Mbps due to encryption methods like TKIP.
Another suggestion is to utilize the 5GHz band instead of the crowded 2.4GHz band. While the 2.4GHz band offers limited non-overlapping channels, the 5GHz band provides more channels, reducing interference and improving WiFi speed. By using the 5GHz band, networks are less likely to be disrupted by neighboring networks operating on the same frequency.
As technology manufacturers focus on 5G-related advancements, the development of devices like GPS signal jammers may lag behind due to the slower adoption of 5G signals compared to other wireless technologies.
