Simula noong nagkaroon ng pandemic dulot ng Covid-19, naging mas in-demand ang paggamit ng internet access sa kanya kanyang bahay, higit doon sa mga naitalaga na ilipat ang kanilang trabaho sa bahay o 'Work from Home' at ang 'Online Classes' na magaganap sa darating na pasukan sa panahon ng 'New Normal'.
Ngunit kaagapay ng pagtaas ng demand ng internet service ay hindi maiiwasan ang problema dulot ng mabagal o mahinang signal ng internet dahilan na din siguro sa dami ng gumagamit lalo na sa panahon ngayong halos karamihan ay nasa bahay lamang.

"Sa mga may problem po kay Pldt home wifi, mahina ang signal, share ko lang po yung resolution ko. (Sorry labo po ng pic)
Kagabi to nangyari parang accident lang, dapat yung foil na yan nasa ilalim ng router, then tinanggal ko tapos nilipad ng fan, so ayun dko na sya ginalaw.
Requirement:
1. Aluminium/Aluminum Foil ( wala eto lang )
Width - twice ng sukat ni router, tapos naka fold po.
Height - naman lampas ng 2 inch sa height ni router, tapos slightly bent.
Nakasandal lang yung foil, and then yung naka bent na part acting na parang bubong sya sa grille ni router, pag tinanggal ko yan naku po! 1 bar na putol putol pa ang calls ko
sana po makatulong, Cheers!"
Ang Tip na ito ni Matiz ay tila pinatunayan din ng isang website na nagpublished ng isang article kung paano din diumano mapapabuti ang Wi-fi signal gamit ang isang aluminum foil.
Basahin ang steps sa ibaba:
"Before we move on to the method to improve Wi-Fi signals using aluminum foil, let us make sure if your router or modem is placed in a wider range.
Your router or modem should be kept in an open place and should not be covered by walls, wood, furniture or other metal obstacles. It should be placed at an higher place so that it can be detected easily by most devices. Do not place it under a table, behind a desktop PC or behind a bookshelf. Make sure the number of devices connected to your router do not exceed the stipulated standard. These points are very important as it can cause your Wi-Fi signal to become weak and disturbed.
Now, after making sure all these points are clear and not causing problems with your Wi-Fi signal, then it is time to make our very own Wi-Fi booster using aluminum foil.
Before we get started, you need a few essential things such as:
Aluminum foil
Router
Scissors
Now, let’s get started:
Take a piece of aluminum foil and cut it into a shape of a rectangle. Make sure you take a large piece and fold it 2 to 3 times into a rectangle. This will make it a stronger and hold on better.
Fold its sides so that they form a curved shape and you could use a cardboard roll or an bottle to help you give it the needed shape.
If the aluminum foil is not able to stand, then place thick papers or cardboard around it to allow it to stand on its own.
Place this curved, rectangle piece of aluminum foil near the antenna of your router. This will help the signal get amplified and focus on the blank spots around the house.
If you have a wall mounted router, then punch two holes in your aluminum foil and place it on the antenna.
Once the aluminum foil is placed on near the router, you will definitely find improvement in your Wi-Fi signal. It is cheap and easy to do method of boosting a poor wireless network signal without spending money on an expensive Wi-Fi extender."
