Bedrooms have very slow wifi

Our bedrooms upstairs have very slow wifi or nothing at all, this has been a problem since we swapped to fibre 2 weeks ago. Our old broadband was only guaranteed 50 and nvr had a problem upstairs.

@IanI Did you change hubs black to white versions when you went to the Full Fibre connection, or was it just a hub to the new position wherever the ONT for Fibre was fitted?

@IanI To be honest the movement to suit the ONT position is not always the best option, and if your hub work with no problems and covered all the bases before then that would be the way to go, but it's one off those i need to extend the Ethernet cable to move the hub, can it be done well and not have major complaints, only you can say, Fibre should not hinder only make better for quickness and speed.

 

After that you are down to booster's and no guarantees those behave well, powerline not so good an option especially on the upstairs/downstairs can be a lot of cable and joints to get through so may end up a poor speed.

 

For me moving the hub has to be option number 1. HTH👍
