Hi I've that had WiFi gigabit installed in my property, the engineer suggested the best point for cable access (which was upstairs in my study)
however the WiFi signal is incredibly poor downstairs in every room ( less than on WiFi bar on average) it certainly doesn't reach my downstairs bedrooms, living room , dining room or kitchen... my internet speed is averaging about 650mbs however the hub has reset itself several times since install. Unsure whether I need the WiFi pods or not ... please advise..

Sky loans wireless booster hardware free under the terms of the 'WiFi Guarantee' element of the legacy 'Broadband Boost' add-on and the 'Enhanced Wall to Wall WiFi Guarantee' part of the 'WiFi Max' subscription supplement: they don't otherwise provide or sell boosters except to resolve issues with Sky Q. Phoning Sky to go through a telephone diagnosis is required to have a booster or pod allocated to the account. Inevitably some Sky booster hardware has leaked onto a certain auction site and elsewhere online, but Sky won't offer support with using these.
Confusingly the default 'Wall to Wall WiFi Guarantee' bundled with all new Sky Broadband orders where Boost or Max is not added by the customer doesn't actually provide booster hardware, and is essentially a sales lead generator for the supplements mentioned above plus a one month broadband subscription refund.
