Slow WiFi speeds - Gigafast

Aj1uk — Tue, 11 Feb 2025 15:51:36 GMT

Hello all,

Does anyone have any guidance (apart from calling Sky, which i do plan to do but experience tells me it'll be a saga).

I have the 900mb gigafast package.

I also have Sky Q with 2 mini boxes.

Im in a townhouse but the hub and 2 mini boxes are well placed for full house coverage.

My Sky app tells me the line in is 633mb.

I do regular speed tests on WiFi and they average 80mb.

I do have Google nest automation with thermostats (2) and a few cameras.

Are these devices really hogging all the WiFi bandwidth?

Thanks!!

Hi @Aj1uk

Sky Q isnt the most ideal combination with Sky Gigafast. They are running mesh technology from 10yrs ago so if your spreading a connection over 3 floors on 4 nodes then 80mbps is probably about right/average.
