2 Important things you can do right now to prep your home for holiday house guests

Is your house going to be busting at the seams with family coming home for Thanksgiving or Christmas? Doing these 2 things before guests come will save you headaches so you can focus on food, fun, and family!
1. Make your Wifi network and password info easy to find.
Don’t be left fumbling around for that tiny slip of paper where you wrote down your home’s Wifi information. Have the network name and wifi password displayed where guests (and you) they can find them easily. You can so something as simple as putting it on the fridge, or have a little fun with it by printing it out and putting it in a picture frame. If you don’t want to display this info, you can write it in a note in your phone or tape it to the back of your router.
2. Make sure you have the speed and router to support your
increased Internet usage.
