Daughter having problems with wi fi in the bedroom, box is in lounge and not covered

I'm just wondering whether a booster would help the problem? It only seems to be in my daughters room, we are in a flat so the room isn't miles away. She gets annoyed as you can imagine. It's happened a lot over the past 3 weeks, seems to be majority of nights now

@Ju_j18 a common issue with flats is interference from heighbours' wifi. While a booster might work it could make the issue worse if it is not matched to the `sky hub. First thing to try is rebooting the Sky hub, simply disconnect the power for a few seconds, as that may help it find a less congested channel. 

 

If that doesnt work then a matched booster to your Sky hub is worth trying Sky only supply boosters if you buy an add-on but you can sometimes pick up a used one on ebay if you have a black hub you need the ttpe thst looks like a white copy of the hub.
