Because you don’t want anything to happen to it while you’re in the shower.
Somehow I doubt that this will stop interference, but I like the idea.
Is it just me, or is there no Ethernet going to that router?
My guess is that they have it set-up in a repeater mode.
Yes, it’s either in repeater mode or the WAN-side Ethernet cable has been disconnected for some reason.
If those are added elements to make yagi antennas, fail.
There’s no Ethernet cable, the signals must be using straight Ether.
Looks like a really good idea to me. I’ve seen more than one AP busted because idiots lean folded tables up against them, or slide a coat rack into a closet and smash ‘em.
Build your own Faraday Cage, using things found around the house!
Same thought.
“Here, we see one possibility to decrease WLAN range”
I was going to comment the same thing.
wouldn’t it decrease the signal range?
Not sure whats the worse aspect here, the faraday cage or the two thumb tacks its balanced on. Routers tend to have screw mounting holes on the back anyway so what gives with the pins?
That’s not a Faraday cage. For one thing, a Faraday cage has an electric current running through it. For another, the holes in that cage are too large to effectively block a 802.xx signal.
Oh, and did you notice that there’s no bottom on that cage?
Faraday cages do not need to have to have an electric current flowing through them – a Faraday cage is simply a conductive container around the object that it protects.
Works a lot better when grounded. Even better with two grounds at opposite corners (faraday cage plus EM shield)
The wire basket would not completely block frequencies in that range but the radiation pattern would be seriously distorted.
They use something similar in the co-ops nearby to keep people from stealing them. It’s not ‘secure’ by any means but it keeps the lazy thieves from taking it with them when they move out.
I think the photo has been uploaded incorrectly, should be a 90 degree anti clockwise twist. Its actually a WLAN trap, used to capture rogue WLANs running off with your bandwidth and leaving you frustrated from ‘poor signal strength’
Better than what my old high school did. They just got a ton of painter’s tape, and… well… taped it to the wall. The routers were more tape than machine by the time they were done with all of them.
