Reducing WIFI Range

Question

I would like to reduce the range of my WIFI signal so it stays inside my house, not in my yard, driveway, or the neighbour's backyard. Is this possible?

Hello HelixUser4321,&nbsp;Unfortunately, it is not possible to adjust the transmit power of the Helix Fi gateway's&nbsp;antenna. However, we do take note of your comment for a feature of this type.&nbsp;If&nbsp;the purpose of your question is to prevent people from seeing your Wi-Fi network, you can still hide your Wi-Fi network name.&nbsp;&nbsp;Although this does not prevent "WiFi analyzer" type applications from seeing there is a hidden network,&nbsp;it will no longer appear on devices when they scan for available networks.&nbsp;&nbsp;In the Helix Fi mobile app, select "Connect" then "See network".&nbsp; Press the edit button located in the upper right corner then uncheck the option "Broadcast WiFi Name" then "Apply Changes".&nbsp;This will not affect your devices already connected. However,&nbsp;&nbsp;such a change will mean that you will need to connect any new device&nbsp;by manually configuring your Wi-Fi network name and password or, by temporarily reactivating this option while you connect your device.&nbsp;&nbsp;
