Do you also not sleep well at night and feel tired as soon as you wake up in the morning? The reason for this may be the WiFi router placed in your room. The router remains on day and night; its signals can affect your sleep. According to many reports, electromagnetic waves emitted from WiFi can disturb the sleep pattern. In such a situation, the question arises whether WiFi should be turned off at night. You will get the answers to all these questions here.
What is the truth and its disadvantages?
A report (2024) by Australia's RMIT University states that 27 percent of people sleeping near WiFi have problems like insomnia. At the same time, a 2021 report also found that the 2.4GHz WiFi signal reduced their deep sleep. However, WHO and ICNIRP say that WiFi radiation is so low that it does not have any major effect on human sleep.
Benefits of turning off WiFi
If you have sleep problems, then turning off WiFi at night can relax your mind, and you can sleep deeply. Turning off WiFi overnight saves both electricity and internet data. Along with this, the life of the router also increases. Even though WiFi radiation does not cause harm, turning it off at night gives peace to the mind, and unnecessary tension can end.
When not to turn off WiFi?
If you have smart devices like a camera, smart light, voice assistant in your house, then turning off WiFi will stop their work. Smart home automation will not activate on time without WiFi. In such a situation, if you want, you can keep the router outside the bedroom so that there is less signal while sleeping at night.
