Poor WiFi
I had a Sky Wifi technician visit because i have seriously poor Wifi in my house. There was no interference detected and the technician said my setup was perfect. I was told to remove all devices and reconnect one by one and keep testing to see which devices could cause the issues. This has been done and there was no device that caused a drop in speed. I have lost Wifi connection multiple times again and my speeds are very low unless wired into the router. It was also suggested that i get the Ultrafast Fibre connection but what's the point of having that if I can't get mote than 100mb dowload speed on the wireless. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Lg 43inch tv 90mps , xbox, freesat box , 3 alexers, 3 mobile phones, 1 is an I phone, 1 tablet, 2 laptops and a pc all working well

Re: Poor WiFi
The router is in my office downstairs. The property is not very big and its a new build so I have been told that there are no walls that would cause interference.
