Do you turn off your router when you go to bed?

So should you turn off your wireless router before going to bed at night? Read on for the truth!

Should I turn off my wireless router when I go to bed at night? I didn't expect that this non-issue would cause a heated debate online.

Some people believe that keeping a wireless router on 24 hours a day wastes electricity and produces radiation, which can affect human health, especially when sleeping.

Another group of people think that wireless routers are used by users 24/7 and it doesn’t matter if they don’t turn them off. There is no need to cut off the power to the refrigerator, TV and other electrical appliances at home.

From all perspectives, there is no need to turn off the wireless router when sleeping. From a health perspective, WiFi is a radio wave, and the radiation it produces is electromagnetic radiation.

According to national standards, the transmission power of wireless routers is not allowed to exceed 100mW, which is far lower than the limit standards in Europe and the United States. Therefore, the radiation generated by wireless routers will not have any radiation effect on the human body. In terms of service life, the wireless routers have been designed to be used 24/7.

In addition, the manufacturer will also test it at high and low temperatures, so it can run stably for a long time indoors in summer or winter. Moreover, when running 24 hours a day, the average household wireless router consumes about 45 degrees of electricity a year, and the electricity bill is about 20-30 yuan, which is about the price of a meal.
