Can WiFi performance of a router detiorate over time?

 

Wifi on our router is working, but it doesn't seem to have the reach it used to. In the same room as the router, it's a fast connection, close to the speed for the broadband to the router. In the lounge, sat on the sofa, my laptop barely connects, though it used to be good at the same location. 

 

Speed tests show that uploading is still at close to max speed, so it's receiving signals from that location OK.

 

I've checked that there are no obvious obstructions around the router, and we have not constructed any Faraday cages lately.

 

Suggestions welcome!

Hi @cypressmark most devices benefit from a reboot occasionally have you tried this? Your post has been escalated and you should hear soon. 

I don't work here and all my opinions are my own.
