Slow WiFi Speed - How to request a Sky Max Pod?

BillS19 — Sat, 22 Mar 2025 04:30:04 GMT

I have one room in my house where the WiFi speed is poor and connection sometimes drops and would like to know the process for requesting a Sky Max Pod.

When working from home I'll frequently not have enough bandwidth to support a Teams call or I'll not be able to connect at all.

Happy to buy an extender if anyone can recommend one they've had success with connecting to a Sky Max Hub.

@BillS19 if you buy Sky's WiFi Max package they will send the first extender out after a phone call. Adding a third party extender might work but a lot depends on the distances concerned and how your home is built. If the room is a fair way from the hub there sre better technologies like Powerline networking which use your homes mains wiring to carry the data you can buy these with built-in wifi access points but if being used for business using an Ethernet cable to the adapter is often a better solution.
