Echo show

Since moving house my echo show is in the kitchen by the garden and my router is at the front-my echo show cuts out after a while then comes back on-I guess it's buffering so I upgraded my router but it's still doing it-my son suspects the electricity box is the issue as it sits between the two rooms-is he right?

@neety41 any metal blocks the wifi signal and the thicker and drnservthe internal walls the morecsignal is lost. If moving yhe hub so the dlectrical box isnt directly in the way doesnt work consider buying a powerline networking kit shich uses the mains siring to get the data to the kitchen.

@Bigredbus is that a line of sight of 10m or round corners ? WiFi signals travel in straight lines like light otherwise you are relying on reflections and the signal left after passing through walls etc.

Make sure the hub and the echo are out in the open on a surface not on the floor. After that it sounds like you msy need a WiFi extender
