To improve the quality of your hotspot, there are a few things you can try. I’ll walk you through the steps below:
1. Connect to the Wi-Fi hotspot on your Pixel device.
2. Open the Settings app on your device.
3. Scroll down and select “Network & Internet.”
4. Tap on “Hotspot & Tethering.”
5. Look for the “Advanced” option and tap on it.
6. In the advanced settings, you should see an option called “AP Band” or “Wi-Fi frequency band.” Tap on it.
7. By default, it is usually set to “Auto” or “2.4 GHz.” However, if you want to increase your Wi-Fi hotspot speed, you can change it to “5 GHz” if your device supports it.
8. Once you’ve selected the desired frequency band, exit the settings app.
Changing the AP Band to 5 GHz can improve your Wi-Fi hotspot speed because the 5 GHz frequency band typically offers faster speeds and less interference compared to the 2.4 GHz band. However, it’s important to note that not all devices support 5 GHz, so make sure your device is compatible before making this change.
Additionally, there are a few other tips you can try to improve the quality of your hotspot:
– Place your Pixel device in a central location to ensure better coverage and signal strength.
– Avoid obstructions such as walls or metal objects that could interfere with the Wi-Fi signal.
– Keep your device and the connected devices updated with the latest software and firmware updates, as they often include performance optimizations.
– Limit the number of devices connected to your hotspot at a time, as having too many devices can decrease the overall speed.
– Consider using a Wi-Fi extender or a mesh network system to extend the range of your Wi-Fi signal if you frequently experience weak signal strength in certain areas.
By following these steps and implementing these tips, you should be able to improve the quality and speed of your Wi-Fi hotspot on your Pixel device.
