Re: Phone apps run very slow on Wi-Fi. Run very fast when Wi-Fi is switched off.
Hi Cookiemonsteruk.
Been with Sky for more than 3 years and only noticed it in the last 3 weeks.
Several apps including Sky, banking and gym apps are all running slow. There may be others.
The only category I have blocked in Shield is Phishing & Malware
I recently reduced the number of channels but have not changed broadband.
Thank you for your help

Did you get any resolution on this as I have the same issue. I was told that there were too many devices connected to the router, but still the same if I switch them all off.
thanks

@Stu+Redding there are multiple things that could cause your wifi to becslower than mobile data, if you post your Sky hub's stats forum members can see whatvus your issue. See Find your Sky Broadband router statistics

Slow wi-fi. It was great when we started as new customers with Sky but poor now. Have you strangled our bandwidth?
