Find your home's Wi-Fi dead spots
Use your phone to check each room and see where the connection gets worse. You don't need to draw a floorplan first.
See where the router might work better
Choose a home layout that's close to yours, then tell us where the modem is. You can fix up the rooms afterwards if you need to.
Fine-tune the floorplan Optional: upload an image, add rooms or edit walls
First, stand next to your modem
We'll take five readings here so the scan knows what a strong connection looks like. Once that's done, walk to another room and wait for the reading to settle.

Why Australian Homes Have Wi-Fi Dead Zones
Double Brick Attenuation
Standard Australian double brick and concrete block walls absorb RF frequencies heavily, reducing 5GHz speeds by up to 75% across just two walls.
Doorways & Hallways
Door openings create line-of-sight RF channels down central hallways. Placing your router with direct hallway visibility maximizes signal across bedrooms.
Mesh Node Halfway Rule
Never place a mesh booster in the dead zone itself. Place it halfway between your main router and the weak room so it can receive and re-broadcast a strong signal.
