Just a few metres can sometimes make a big difference to <strong>signal strength and speed<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Mobile signals are affected by walls, metal, trees, terrain and how clear the router&#8217;s view of the mobile mast is. In a motorhome, a spot near a window or higher up can therefore work much better than further inside the vehicle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">It is best to move the router step by step and test the connection in a few different places. Sometimes just a metre or two is enough for a more stable connection.<\/p>\n<p>If the signal is still weak, you can also try <strong>manual network selection<\/strong> and test another operator.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wifi-faq-v4\" data-v4-expanded=\"1\">\n<h3>What affects speed<\/h3>\n<p>Mobile speed does not only depend on whether the display says 4G or 5G. Distance to the mast, frequency band, obstacles, network load, placement and the operator used can make a big difference. So a stable 4G network can sometimes give a better result than a weak 5G network.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"wifi-faq-related\"><strong>Read more:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/wifi.se\/en\/contact-us\/\">Support &amp; help<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"faq_category":[501],"class_list":["post-33196","faq","type-faq","status-publish","hentry","faq_category-4g-5g-and-coverage"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Can a few metres make a difference? | Wifi.se<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Yes, definitely.
