Hi all,
Just an FYI that I came across a very handy free app which helps you measure your wifi strength and throughput at a given spot; the app is named "wifi sweet spot" and is free, and even has an audio output mode which generates beeps similar to a "giger counter" to indicate the current strength (note that the label for the button to turn audio mode on/off does disappear after the first use, but you should have no trouble identifying the button even so). It also has a numeric constant display which gives you more presice info. You can use it to map out weak areas in your house, or to allow you to reposition your wifi router and see what effect this has on signal at a given point. This helped me determine that repositioning my router just slightly within the closet where it resides makes a big difference in some of the weaker areas of my house (where I was having difficulty placing an Echo).
