This is why I unplug my Wi-Fi router occasionally – and you should too

When everything’s functioning properly, Wi-Fi tends to feel seamless, even invisible. It is, after all, just a framework for what you want to do online, much in the same way that a road is the literal groundwork for a car, bike, or PEV. Looking at it from another angle, it would be strange if a F1 driver obsessed over the quality of the tarmac more than overtaking opponents or deciding when to come in for a pit stop.
