Slow Wi-Fi? 10 tricks I use to get internet speeds as fast and reliable as wired

Even with a Netgear Orbi 970 mesh Wi-Fi network, backed by a 2Gbps AT&T fiber-optic Internet connection, I sometimes have Wi-Fi slowdowns. That's because my home has two buildings. One's primarily an office, while the other is where I lay my head. The former is a new 1,000-square-foot building, while the latter is a 3,000-square-foot historic building with all the thick walls that come with older homes. It's not easy to cover all that space, even with top-of-the-range network gear.
