Bad connection issues upstairs

Lauren228 — Mon, 29 Sep 2025 16:34:56 GMT

The connection issues upstairs since changing to fibre are not good and keeps cutting off. This is where I complete my work ( I work for the nhs so need internet access ) my sons do their homework and use their devices. Their phones ( that are also with sky ) in particular keep going off WiFi. We have not long had fibre so I don't understand why this is happening

You can call sky and ask for a booster to help with the wifi signal

@Lauren228 If it all worked before, you had the same hub, they came and installed your Fibre connection, then DID your hub move from A to B, and if so by how much? Sticking it next to an outside wall, and not in a central position completely changes the dynamic of the wireless wi-fi signal! Also say if you reply did you change the sky hub ie, from the Black to the White?

If you have full fibre broadband to the property and you want to move the hub you will need to buy a longer ethernet cable, is your broadband box like this
