Hello @harrism ,

Welcome to our community.

It seems that you are experiencing intermittent Wi-Fi signal drops, especially in rooms farther from your TP-Link Wi-Fi Router. Here are some steps to stabilize your connection and improve your Wi-Fi coverage.

1. Update Firmware: Log in to your router’s web interface (http://tplinkwifi.net), go to Advanced > System > Firmware Update, and ensure your router’s firmware is up to date. 

2. Check WAN (Internet) Connection:
• Try connecting a computer directly to your modem to check if your ISP connection is stable.
• Try replacing Ethernet cable between your modem and router with new ones if possible.
• Change the DNS server settings in your router 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 for improved reliability.

3. Improve Wireless Stability:
• Place your router in an open, central location in your home, away from cabinets, shelves, or metal objects that can block the signal.
• In the web interface, go to Advanced > Wireless > Wireless Settings. Try switching to a different Wi-Fi channel to reduce interference from other networks nearby.
• For 2.4GHz routers, set the channel width to 20MHz for better stability, especially in crowded wireless environments.

4. Check Client Devices:
• Make sure your devices (phones, laptops, etc.) have up-to-date network drivers or system updates.
• Ensure your devices are not restricted by any Parental Control profiles on the router.

5. Consider Wi-Fi Coverage Limitations:
Single-band 2.4GHz routers have limited range and may struggle to cover larger homes or penetrate thick walls. If your home is larger or has many obstacles, you may experience weak signals in distant rooms. In such cases, you can consider adding a range extender, powerline adapter, or upgrading to a dual-band router for better coverage.
