I'm in my first day of having T-Mobile home internet. I am needing advice on the best placement for my gateway router. Right now I have it on a table next to a window away from other electronics but it's only getting 2 bars of signal. Help. Advice. Thanks!
You may find this other thread useful (link below). Bottom line, 2 bars may be plenty, depending on what kind of speeds you are getting on your devices and in the specific areas of your house that are most important. I ended up moving my gateway from where it was getting 3 bars to a spot where it gets only 2, and my overall performance is drastically better.
Use speedtest.net on your phone and/or laptop to test your speeds where it matters in your home, and if the speeds are good (and connection is durable) then don’t worry about the 2 bars.
