A Wi-Fi modem is in almost every home, but like any other device, many people wonder if it is good for health.
A widespread product, it emits a constant signal and is sometimes, placed very close to people, perhaps in the bedroom, raising suspicions and even a certain amount of anxiety. ISS decided to clarify and report elements that everyone should know.
When we talk about Wi-Fi we are usually referring to a set of technologies So wires, like Wlan, have the possibility of connecting many devices, but qualitatively, and therefore remotely without any physical connection. Generally, however, these instruments are indoors and emit static radiation.
Home modem, is it dangerous for your health? What the ISS Says
Just like any other device, from a smartphone to a microwave oven, users They want to understand how dangerous it is to have them and they want them to work in practice without hindrance. Actually, while other people talk about turning it on and off, Wi-Fi modems don't turn off when they come on, they stay connected all the time.
The radio frequency waves used by modems allow the connection and therefore continue to radiate from the product in the home. According to the WHO, there is no situation to date Exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields such as Wi-Fi can dictate safety or risk.
According to the Health Institute, it's important to pay attention to false myths. “Exposure levels of common routers or Wi-Fi installed in the office or home are well below recommended limits. For those practicing internationally and in Italy. Also, these levels are much lower than those caused by basic radio stations or mobile phones (10 times lower).“. “The only adverse health effects of radiofrequency waves currently identified are thermal in nature, occurring only at very high exposure levels.Common environmental or private resources can never be reached through public exposure“He further explains that since these waves are within range anyway there will be no problem.
They have also become widespread in recent years Shields against Wi-Fi radiation But these are not particularly useful from a practical point of viewObviously the best thing you can do is avoid having Wi-Fi nearby, so just to be on the safe side and put it somewhere in the house other than the bedroom.
