Published: May 01, 2022

The internet is a vital part of our everyday life, just as much as water and electricity. It allows us to complete our tasks, communicate with our family and friends, and access a wealth of information and entertainment.

UNITS Moving and Portable Storage of Kansas City is here to share the steps you need to take to set up internet at your new home. 

Research Providers 

When it comes to internet service providers, most states allow customers a variety of options. So do some research into the providers in your area before connecting your new home’s internet. Compare costs and services to determine which ISP is the best fit for you.

Set Up Your Computer and Router 

Locate a safe, suitable location for your computer and router. When connecting via Wi-Fi or Ethernet, placement is critical. Consider where the most accessible power sockets are and where you’ll be using your technology to guarantee you get the best connection.

Set Up Your Network 

It’s time to turn everything on once you’ve gathered all of your components. The router must be connected to your modem using an ethernet connection before it can be linked to your network. On your laptop or computer, connect the router with a second ethernet connection.

Follow the directions in your router’s documentation to make your network name and password unique. Disconnect the cable connecting your PC to the router after you’ve completed this process. You may now surf the web using Wi-Fi!
