Have to switch wifi off and on to get connected

Hi All,

 

Since going to full fibre broadband I have noticed that using wifi on mobile device (typically iphones) is inconsistent.

 

For example if I load a website the web browser just hangs. Whn I turn wifi off and to mobile the website loads immediately. I then switch wifi back on and it works ok for a while.

 

Ethernet connection seems to be ok.

 

I have router SR401 and tried rebooting, factory setting etc but still  no improvement.

 

The phone has an IP address so  Ithink it either a routing error or perhaps DNS resolution?

Sounds like WiFi stalling to me. Do you have Sky Q or any WiFi boosters/extenders?

Might be worth disconnecting the booster to see if the issue still occurs.
