If your Wi-Fi router's signal is dragging in certain parts of your house, the solution might just be in your kitchen drawer.
Standard, 0.024-millimeter-thick household aluminum foil was shown to be just about as good as other, more expensive signal-reflecting metals like copper and silver, according to computer scientists at Dartmouth University.
The researchers masterminded a simple hack that promises not only to improve your wireless signal, but can even strengthen your cybersecurity, for about as much money as it costs to wrap your leftovers.
Crazy as it may sound, a 'tinfoil hat' on your router may also help you be less paranoid about hackers sneaking on to your wireless network.

I think if my neighbor does that nonsense, I won't have an internet connection anymore (he knows I'm doing that, he owes me).

Or something even less inbetween like chroam knoack off plated with polymere shiners....
Is the easiest source of the foil coated in anything I might need to burn or wash off?
Wouldnt lead be better , so as to not attenuate...??? I kinda like to be sure to overcome that when Im wraping something in a big metal ball.
