It's been a long time since i've posted on here but i don't know what to do anymore.
So let me start with the backstory to eliminate remedies i have already tried.
For years now i have been having wifi problems at home. Devices can connect and get great signal strength however wile connected to wifi the internet barely works. Devices that are directly connected to the router/modem work perfectly.
First i had comcast/xfinity internet service at my home connected to my sisco router. I moved the router to the middle of the house so everyone could get good reception but still that did not fix the issue. Then i did some reading about wifi channels and changed the channel from auto to 11. That worked great for a couple of days then the problem started again. My ISP sent multiple technicians to my house who claim i have nothing wrong with my internet they checked the signal coming from the electrical pole directly to my modem and they said it was good and strong but still they changed it just in case. Then the technician recommended range extenders to help with wifi interference and again it worked great for a couple of days and again the problems came back.
Next after getting so fed up with the poor customer service and outrageous bill i called my ISP again and told them the problem had not been resolved. They told me "we do not guarantee wifi, only devices directly connected to our hardware" so that got me pretty upset and i canceled their service.
Now i have ATT Uverse internet with their att modem/router combo. Again my computer that is directly connected works perfectly without any issues but all my other devices that work on wifi sometimes work but usually they do not even with perfect signal strength my phone or tablet cannot even open load Facebook.
So now i am here and praying that someone has a solution to my ongoing internet problems at home.
Please help....
