Where should I place my SuperPods?

Placement Tips for the Healthiest Wi‑Fi Mesh

To get the very best Wi‑Fi performance throughout your home, placement matters. Your Rebel Router and SuperPods work together to create a strong backhaul network — the healthier this network is, the stronger and more stable your Wi‑Fi experience will be.

Here’s how to place your SuperPods for optimal performance:


Ideal SuperPod Placement

✔️ Place SuperPods in the core / middle of your home

Position them centrally rather than near outside walls. This helps the pods communicate with each other more effectively.

✔️ One in every two rooms & one on each floor

Spacing matters. Placing a SuperPod every second room — and ensuring each floor has its own — creates a robust Wi‑Fi mesh.

✔️ Keep them away from materials that block signals

Avoid placing SuperPods near:

  • metal surfaces
  • thick construction (e.g., brick pillars)
  • mirrors

These materials can absorb or reflect Wi‑Fi, weakening your signal.

❌ Do not place SuperPods in the kitchen

Kitchens are full of metal appliances and reflective surfaces that interfere with Wi‑Fi.

❌ Avoid placing pods on exterior walls

Signals can escape outside your home, reducing strength indoors.
