Can a router be plugged in anywhere
Yes, you can! However, with a device that handles wireless networking, placement is key.
If you put your router in a bad spot, you could have terrible speeds on all your wireless devices.
Luckily, there are a few things you can keep in mind to find the best spot for your router.
How many WiFi devices is too many
You may have too many devices on your wifi. While many systems claim to support around 250 devices at one time, it’s not recommended that you do so.
You may still be able to access the internet but you’ll likely experience poor connectivity.
Can you plug your router into any phone socket
