unexpected success with home wifi set-up

• * tip: cable point need at least 2 power sockets to support 4 to 6 devices — modem, router, powerline networking, phone
• * tip: place the devices high up, to free up table space. Most devices (except phone) should be shileded from access
  • to achieve this, I chose wall-mounting rack
• * minor tip: place wifi router in the open living room. Best practice is ceiling-mount. If not possible, consider powerline networking.
• * tip: install power sockets higher up throughout the house

naming home SSID

If your SSID has the same signal strength as 55 other, then sorting by name.

Therefore, my SSID names start with “0” and end in “2” or “5” for the 5Ghz
