Re: Just moved in fully and strange WiFi issues.

Just a little update.

 

My Pod arrived today. I have been trying to get my office PC to connect to the pod.

 

I can connect everything in the room to the pod. The only thing I can't connect is the PC.

 

I am going to put that down to hardware issues.

 

I have a slight issue, some devices jump between connections. My iPad was jumping between pod and router today. Is that normal?

 

I have downstairs devices that connect to the pod upstairs and random upstairs items connect to the router downstairs.

Re: Just moved in fully and strange WiFi issues.

So after a few days....

 

My windows 10 PC is unable to connect to the Sky wifi.

 

I have tried different wifi cards and all have the same issue. I even rebuilt the os and tried and I get the same issue.

 

Has anyone else had issues ?

@Ayallogue does the PC connect to the hub? If you haven't done so reducectge wifi security setting in the My Sky app to WPA2 from WPA3-T as some devices cannot accept the new setting.

Re: Just moved in fully and strange WiFi issues.

Thanks but most of my devices connect perfectly without any issues.

 

I don't want to remove the security as everything else is fine.

 

This morning at 4am I got up because I couldn't sleep. I was thinking about how I should fix this issue.

 

So my long term plan is to have the key devices in the office wired and everything else can be from the wifi.

 

It won't be until next week that I can run cables and sink them into the wall.

 

Until then I just moved the pod to another switch and ran a network cable to it.

 

Speed test this morning showed similar speeds to other devices in the same area.

 

I am currently in work on a long day and will test it later.

Re: Just moved in fully and strange WiFi issues.

So after having a successful day yesterday I went to do some work from home....

 

I am currently getting 83.91 Mbps upload and 52.61 Mbps upload.

 

Last night I got a constant 410 Mbps and 63 Mbps upload.

 

Sky really has the worst internet system I have ever used.

 

I need to call them back up to speak to someone to maybe arrange for someone to call out.

 

Anyone got any other suggestions on fixing this ?

@Ayallogue Are you still trying to do this all with a wireless connection?
