Wifi coverage upstairs, constantly buffering

Chena129 — Sun, 20 Jul 2025 09:08:22 GMT

Switched to Sky, which was originally fine, but for a number of weeks now there is VERY low signal upstairs. Never had this issue with Virgin, beyond disappointing. Is there any way of boosting signal?

@Chena129

If you have Wi-Fi Max on your account then Sky will supply up to 3 pods as you can read about here:

Couldn't get max in our area, so have sent a complaint through my account. Simply not acceptable, hated Virgin but at least their signal didn't fail us!

@Chena129 Just go get your own boosters if max is not available!
