WiFi Signal in the Woods

A redneck finally got internet installed at his house out in the woods.

The technician warned him, Signal might be weak out here.

He nodded.

No problem.

That night, he tried using his laptop… and sure enough, the connection kept dropping.

So the next morning, he got to work.

By afternoon, his neighbor noticed something strange.

There he was, standing on top of his truck… holding the router above his head… slowly turning in circles.

What are you doing? the neighbor yelled.

Trying to get a better signal, he said.

The neighbor shook his head.

That ain’t how it works.

The redneck paused.

Then climbed down and said, Fine.

A few hours later, the neighbor came back.

Now the redneck was halfway up a tall tree, duct taping the router to a branch.

The neighbor stared.

You really think that’s gonna help?

The redneck looked down, confident.

Well… higher is better, right?

The neighbor shrugged.

Guess we’ll find out.

The redneck tightened the tape, climbed down, opened his laptop… and smiled.

See? he said.

Full bars.

The neighbor blinked.

Then asked:

So what’s the password?

The redneck looked up at the tree and said:

Hold on… I gotta climb back up and check.
