Gaming help
My daughter has just moved home after uni and has a PC set up. She likes to game with friends but is finding connection issues. I just have a router downstairs and standard broadband. Is there something simple we can get for her to plug her PC into to help improve functions for her?

Re: Gaming help
Does the PC have a poor connection when connected to the downstairs router because if it does and using a cable to connect them is out of the question then you might need a pod (booster).
A poor signal in certain rooms is something that comes up on here on a regular basis so try going through this to see if it helps:
If not and if you have Wi-Fi Max on your account then Sky will loan up to 3 pods as you can read about here:
https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-wifi-max
So you can either call them on 150 from a landline phone or a mobile that has a Sky sim in it or Select "No, I still need help" at the bottom on the above link.
If someone has helped you then please click on the LIKES button in their post.
If you need help please provide as much information as you can
