4. Optimize Wi-Fi for stable operation

Factory Wi-Fi settings don't always provide maximum speed and coverage. Here are some tips to improve network performance:

Channel selection: If you have many neighbors with Wi-Fi in your home, the networks may interfere with each other. To reduce interference:

  1. Go to WLAN → Channel Settings.
  2. Instead of Auto select a channel manually (eg 6 or 11 for 2.4 GHz).
  3. Use apps like Wi-Fi Analyzer (Android) for channel load analysis.

Frequency separation: If your modem supports 5 GHz, enable this frequency separately. It is less congested and provides high speed, but has a shorter range. It is better to make the network names for 2.4 and 5 GHz different (for example, MyWiFi_2G And MyWiFi_5G).

Transmission power: In some models (eg, Sercomm RV6699) you can adjust the signal strength. If the modem is overheating or the network is unstable, try reducing the power to 75% in the settings Advanced → Wireless.

Parameter Recommended value Explanation
Channel width (2.4 GHz) 20 MHz Narrow width reduces interference but reduces speed.
Channel width (5 GHz) 40 MHz or 80 MHz A wider lane increases speed.
Wireless network mode 802.11n/g/b (for 2.4 GHz) Ensures compatibility with older devices.
Beamforming Included (Enabled) Improves coverage for compatible devices.
⚠️ Attention: If you lose Wi-Fi after changing the channel or strength, return the settings to Auto and reboot the modem. Some devices (especially older smartphones) may not support modern standards such as WPA3 or 802.11ac.
