Mount Your Router to the Wall for Better Wi-Fi Reception

This tip helps because mounting high enough on a wall allows the antenna to clear any other electronics that may be in the way of your reception waves. 

If you struggle with bad Wi-Fi reception, or just don't have a good table to set your router, you could mount it high on your wall with some inexpensive hangers.

David Goodier realized that GRUNDTAL hangers from IKEA fit perfectly into the grooves of his AirPort Extreme to hold it on the wall. The result looks clean and professional, and at only $8 for four hangers, it was way cheaper than any custom mounting hardware available commercially.
