You’ll get faster download, but your upload speeds drop off a cliff
Use another fan to make the wifi circular, then your upload speeds shouldnt be hindered
Then you add ping by changing the path
You can counter those with a pingpong bat.
If you play pong online, your ping will be super low.
Genius. Where’s your GoFundMe?
If you make a series of tubes, you can route from the router and reroute back to the router, creating an information highway through, what we call in comp science, a “loop”. Depending on which side you install the turbo, you can replicate the same tech your ISP charges extra for in “speed boost”. If you go bi-turbo—one in inbound and one in the outbound tubes of the loop—you can generate effectively unlimited speed, where onlyfans used in your inbound and outbound tubes limit based on their RPM. This is why I use RC plane turbines. It’s loud, but I’m streaming YT in 480.
If you put all this in a very small tube that you can easily plug into your router and your PC, then we’ve got real innovation on our hands!
I’m interested to learn more about this. Any article I could read?

That’s absurd. You don’t need to route to or from your router. That’s it’s entire job. Do you also run computations for your computer and speak on behalf of your speaker? Complete madness.
Yes I do, computers calculate okay but I’m different
I bet you fing too, you monster.

I’m no expert but from my experience it is the other way around: Upload speed increased, Download speed decreased. Which makes sense because the outgoing data is boosted by the wind whereas the incoming traffic has to overcome the wind. If you want to increase download speed I suggest placing a hoover behind the router.
I am a computer programmer, this is exactly how it works. Why else do you think electronics have fans in them if not to blow fresh, crisp wifi in and stale, soggy wifi out?

The trick is rewiring the outlet to 240v. More power = more signal.
Hey man, 3db is 3db
Doubling the voltage for a given circuit would result in four times the power, P = V^2 R (*This is wrong, it’s over R, see comment below). So 6db
P=V^2 /R
You’re absolutely right
Will probably make the signal noisy, so I’d avoid this. I would recommend just putting the router in a booster seat, so it’s higher off the ground.
No no, everyone knows you’re supposed to put a mirror behind it, duh.
But how does the mirror knows what’s behind the paper?!
My boss almost saw me looking at this. Close call.
Not Safe Fan Wifi
Can confirm, I’m this guys boss
Get back to making me work!
No because the fan that is boosting the Wi-Fi to you would prevent your computer requests to the Wi-Fi box.
So while it’ll be easier for you to get a YouTube video It would be harder for you to actually type a search. 👍
Just use an electromagnet instead. Invert the polarization to attract or repell all those pesky wifi particles. This way it boost botb up and download speeds.
this is far too complicated, we just need another fan blowing back toward the router
NSFW?
If you work in IT and want to keep your job, it would be NSFW to say something like this
Reminds me of the time I worked in IT and someone put a department’s wifi access point on top of the microwave. No one fessed up to that one lol
I had a friend complaining that his new computer I built for him was crashing a lot.
So I go there and spend a good bit of time trying to make it crash. Nothing.
Then his girlfriend gets bored and picked up the wireless phone. Bam ! Computer crashed!
It had to happen another time for me to realize it crashed when she was picking up the wireless phone. Turns out the phone base was on top of the computer. Tha cpu was a AMD 950MHz and the phone a 900MHz phone. I have no ideas if the frequency is at fault or the phone base was creating bad interferences somehow but taking the phone base away from the computer finally solved the problem.
That’s so weird
I work in IT and we always say stupid shit like this to people.
May work in niche cases where passive cooling is insufficient and overeating causes Instabilität.
INSTABILITÄT!!!
I dunno, I thought that it was instabilität that causes overeating.
It’s a vicious cycle. But you already knew that, doctor.
yes and you can also leave out a plate of cookies where you want a strong signal so the wifi waves will go there when they’re hungry
Just don’t bring the ones from the third party, I heard they’re bad for the privvy or something.
Don’t be silly!
Wifi is not man, Wifi doesn’t eat cookies
It eats lead. That is why wifi antenna’s have a bit of lead surrounded by copper, so it can lure the wifi with the lead and catch it with the copper. Also why it stops at lead walls since it is like a buffet for them.
Radio waves are faster in a vacuum, ditch the fan and put it in a shop vac.

But the fan blows the air away, leaving nothing but vacuum
Ask ElectroBOOM, he would definitely make a video rectifying it
*bang*OUCH F___ S___ why is there a loose wire?I read the last part in his voice lmao
Same here. 🤣 I absolutely love when people have the skill of typing out something that your brain reads in a specific voice and manor.
Putting a fan begin your router won’t boost the range because photons emitted by the router’s antenna won’t be affected by moving air from the fan. Putting a floodlight however…
Even if they were affected by any measurable amount, the photons move so much faster than the air that it’s an absolutely negligible difference incapable of being measured. It’s like 1 trillion divided by 1 trillion and 1 equaling approximately 1. The outcome is unaffected by the extra 1. It’s a non-factor. I’m trying to explain this for the future not-smart-people but I think I’m just making it much worse.
Photons?
Visible light, radio frequencies, microwaves, x-rays, infrared, ultra violet and so on are just light (photons) at different frequencies.
And your friendly EMH.
Alright, so according to Bernoulli’s principle says that moving fluids result in a lower air pressure. Light and all electromagnetic waves are fastest in a vacuum. Lower air pressure is closer to a vacuum. So… Marginally? I have no idea how much but I’m guessing it’s miniscule enough to need special equipment to detect. Not worth it. Plus the fan itself could block the waves. The fields around the wires powering the fans would have an effect as well. All of this is going to be super minor but I think the physical blockage of the fan is going to have more of an effect (but still teeny tiny) than anything.

In order to be unessecary specific:
if it would benefit the waves:
it would only benefit the outgoing waves.
The waves coming back feom clients, transmitting data back to the wifi access point would have to fight against this additional airpressure.
But this is all only hypothetical and i am sure in the real world it would make no difference even if there would be a benefit in theory.
And yes you are correct the electromanetic field of the spinning fan would definitly harm and not improve the signal quality.
It’s simple. We point it away from the router except during large uploads!
No no no we make use of MIMO beamforming and let the uplink signal get reflected towards the back of the fan so it slipstreams into the router
If it has metal blades then it will reflect some of the radio signals, making the transceiver more directional. With how it’s set up in the post, it could potentially be a benefit to devices that face the front of the router and fan, but a disadvantage to devices behind the fan. Same logic with that Facebook trick of putting tin foil or cut up drink cans behind the antennae.
However, most newer and higher end routers use beam forming antenna arrays which are already directional and can automatically focus the signal toward your devices. Having reflectors around those can actually interfere with the antenna array and decrease speeds for all devices.
Next you’re going to tell me having the microwave on slows my WiFi down!
Beam forming is a bit more complex than just being directional.
It makes the signal stronger in the target location, but the antenna is still very Omni-directional. It’s just using extremely small signal offsets between transmission antennas to optimise the amplitude of the signal in the area of the receiver.
Directional antennas can still very much help, as well as wave guides to push more signal in the desired direction (sacrificing signal in another, potentially undesired or unrequired direction).

It gets really interesting when you get into mimo and multi-user mimo, and the system is transmitting on the same channel to multiple endpoints at once, with different data for each. Shit is crazy.
Facebook lmao. That trick was around decades before Facebook.
