Extending Sky WiFi

RichardT99 — Mon, 19 May 2025 18:10:36 GMT

I have recently got Sky broadband but the WiFi doesn't stretch to all parts of the house. When I was with BT they provided discs to extend the WiFi around the house for free. Silly question but will Sky do the same? Or am I better buying independent WiFi extenders online?

@RichardT99 Sky will provide a booster but thats only if you subscribe to WiFi Max at an added ongoing monthly cost, personally i would look at buying 3rd party extenders/boosters, that way you already have them in place if you decide to move to another provider at a later date.

Thanks, I guessed that would be the case!

@RichardT99 Did you have the white BT wi-fi disk's, if so they will work with the sky hub!

Interesting. No they were black in colour

@RichardT999 You are out off luck, the black complete wi-fi was tied very close to the BT Smarthub2 and more than likely no chance of operating with anything else. You will need to subscribe to Sky Max to get pods from them!
