Published: April 01, 2022

A good Internet connection is just as vital as water and electricity in our everyday lives. It allows us to complete our assignments, communicate with our family and friends, and access a plethora of information and entertainment.

UNITS Moving and Portable Storage of San Antonio is here to share the steps you need to take to set up internet at your new home. 

Research Internet Providers 

When it comes to internet service providers, most states provide consumers with a number of alternatives. So before you connect your new home’s internet do some research about the providers around you. Compare costs and services to see which is the finest option for you.

Set up Your Computer and Router 

Locate a suitable location for your computer and router. When connecting via Wi-Fi or ethernet, placement is essential. Consider where the most accessible power outlets are and where you’ll be using your gear to ensure you get the greatest connection.

Set up Your Network 

It’s time to turn everything on once you’ve gathered all of your components. The router must be connected to your modem using an ethernet connection before it can be linked to your network. On your laptop or computer, connect the router with a second ethernet connection.

Follow the directions in your router’s documentation to make your network name and password unique. Disconnect the cable connecting your PC to the router after you’ve completed this process. You may now surf the web using Wi-Fi!
