"Working from home can be as simple as sitting on the couch and opening your laptop, but that isn't necessarily conducive to getting work done on a consistent basis. You really need some sort of home office setup for the optimal balance between comfort and productivity. I've been testing chairs, headphones, and headsets for over 10 years, and I'm not the only expert at working from home at PCMag."
"Internet access is essential for working from home, and you need to ensure consistent coverage around your residence. Although you can't always guarantee that your internet service will be up 100% of the time, you can at least maintain a strong Wi-Fi network for when it is. If your place is small and your modem is relatively close to where you work, you can probably get by with a good router."
Working from home requires an office setup balancing comfort and productivity. Ergonomic chairs, suitable headphones, and adjustable desks reduce aches and maintain focus. Reliable internet and strong Wi‑Fi coverage are essential. Replace provider routers with higher-performing models to improve speed and range. For small spaces a single good router suffices; for large homes, mesh Wi‑Fi systems extend coverage across multiple points. Key peripherals include keyboards, mice, headsets, and webcams to stay connected and productive. Budget routers can start around $80, while powerful models can cost up to $800, so choose based on performance needs. Avoid renting provider equipment when possible to gain better features and value.
