Strategic antenna placement: The first thing you have to do is to position the access point's antenna in a place which restricts the range of its signal to go further than the required area. You should not put the antenna close to a window because glass can't obstruct its signals. Place it in a central location of the building. 2. Use WEP: WEP stands for Wireless encryption protocol.

Solutions: Act rapidly : The first thing you have to do in order to save your wet mobile phone is to act rapidly.

This will save your wet mobile phone and it will start working if it was under water for just a little while. Using a hairdryer : Take a hairdryer and begin drying the mobile phone while giving more consideration to the place where the battery is located. The battery housing usually consists of tiny holes to let in air (so giving more space for water) inside the mobile phone. Make sure that you are not holding the hairdryer very near to the mobile phone
