A poor signal is something that can cause this so try going through this to see if it helps:

If not and if you have Wi-Fi Max on your account at about £6 per month then Sky will loan up to 3 pods as you can read about here:

The first one can be self installed while a second and third will require an engineer visit.


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.


Alternatives are homeplugs or your own mesh network.
