Where to place broadband router in home

forumdedum

Currently in my kitchen. Where do most people put their broadband router?

Is it visible or discreetly hidden?

Thanks.

The best place would be in the middle of the house to get the best chance of good signal for units using WiFi.

Thanks for that. Guess that would be my hall. There's no phone socket there though. There is a phone socket in my living room and it's beside a double plug socket which I believe I need.

Nice offer on these currently which I have in my place:

Work very well and great at getting signal into areas of your house which might not have the best wifi.

Yip, get a WiFi mesh network
You will get WiFi all over your house and outside too

Ya your restricted by where the line enters the house, but as close as you can to middle within those limits, you can always get signal boosters and plug them in to help.
