There’s lots of advice around to improve your connection.

This includes ensuring a central location and avoiding things like microwaves.

But there’s a simple trick that can help you determine instantly whether your router’s location is yay or nay.

Aman Bhatti, Director of Propositions for Broadband and Talk for Sky, has revealed to The Sun just what you should do.

And it’s simply to ensure you can actually see your Wi-Fi box.

“If you’ve got line of sight of the hub and it’s visible then the likelihood of the connection being strong is higher,” he said.

“And so things like storing it away in the cupboard and underneath the stairs for example, can cause some challenges with connections.”

So if you can’t see your Wi-Fi router, it probably means it’s in a poor location.

And you should consider moving it.

Aman recently shared three of the worst Wi-Fi mistakes people make that can kill the connection.

Sky launched its brand new WiFi Max product earlier this month – described as its most powerful router yet.

The firm is promising its most powerful WiFi package yet and guaranteeing speeds of up to 25Mbps.
