How to Get the Best Connection With a Huawei Ec168 Wireless Internet Card

Purchase a wireless router with a broadcast range that can cover your entire home. Wireless routers have an estimated broadcast range printed on the documentation that comes with it, so it is wise to purchase one with enough broadcast range to cover as much of your house as is possible; even if you are planning to install the router near your computer, having a wide broadcast range allows the possibility of moving the router to another location in the house without losing any consistency on your Internet connection.

Remove any wireless devices that may interfere with the broadcast range of your wireless router. Wireless phone systems, for instance, if they are operating on the same frequency as your wireless router (check router and phone documentation to confirm this), can cause signal degradation or signal loss altogether. If this is the case, you will most likely need to replace your wireless phone system with one that operates on a different frequency.

Purchase and use a wireless range extender to place near your computer. Installing a wireless range extender near the outside of you router's broadcast range can boost the strength of the wireless signal to your Huawei wireless card. Check the signal strength meter ("Excellent," "Good," "Fair," "Limited or No Connectivity") that shows under the wireless network icon to track the signal strength of the wireless network as it broadcasts to the Huawei wireless card.
