Modern windows can greatly interfere with wireless signals. I believe many make use of a very small (barely noticeable) metal mesh which can break havoc with wireless signals.
Manufacturers are likely aware of the issue and test for it but still, I get better wifi through the wall to my house rather than through a large window with line of sight to the accesspoint.
- Arbalest 7y agoCurious about the mesh, what purpose does it achieve? Strength, insulation, shatter resistance, shatter size control? Are there any documented examples of the technology that I could read about?
- tjoff 7y agoAll info I've read has been in swedish and don't remember where. But unless my memory fails me the purpose is heat insolation. A quick google suggested that it can also used for fire safety, to increase strength and resist large temperature differences. But that's not the type of mesh I'm thinking of (it seemed those meshes were quite noticeable).
