Kill your wi-fi

I'm probably wrong as usual but it seems like even though I have wi-fi turned "OFF" if I'm at my house it still interferes with my mobile (Verizon (I hate them too) ) internet.

I can be at the house and take three hours to post a couple pics and reply but then one time I fixed something at the parts house so I sat in there and posted half a dozen pics and reply in amazingly warp speed

So no I don't get it but when I'm on FTE on my phone at my house and it's ridiculous like 1996 AOL dial up (still faster) I blame my wi-fi and not FTE

Yeah you're doing it wrong. Turning off wifi on your phone does nothing to the wifi network in your house so it can still interfere with cell phone reception. What you should be doing is turning off roaming data when at home, connect your phone to your wireless network and save data charges at the same time.

Ha ha thanks man I figured probably something like that.

I don't even know what cookies are.

Also I have to track down notification settings nonstop because if I Google tennis rackets or the Chicago Bears my Google will blow me up with notifications about them.
