Poor WiFi signal

Kieran54 — Sun, 29 Jun 2025 08:52:29 GMT

Hi there, I recently switched to Sky broadband to get a stronger internet signal. Unfortunately this only seems to be the case in my living room where the router is located. Devices outside this room are having problems connecting and using the internet. We are in a new build house, so the walls are not solid and the house is not huge.

could you provide some advice please.

thanks

kieran

@Kieran54

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

@Kieran54 Even though you have a new build and the walls are thin, YOU have no idea what is there, if you have foil lined plaster board then wireless wi-fi JUST does not like it in the slightest, and is very evident when you leave that room the hub is in!

Only devices near my router work coverage is poor
