Poor connection in other rooms

Since upgrading WiFi, the connection is poor in all rooms apart from the living room where the WiFi box is. Daughters cannot use their iPads in bedrooms as connection is not good.

@Molly441 tgat is probably the most common qvuestion on this forum. First point is to look at where the hub is to get the best possible signal it should be out in the open on a surface so its sbove obstructions like radiators etc

 

Bdyond that you are into requiring more wifi sources as due to the layout and how your home is built affects wifi signal levels. If your home is an older property with solid internal walls you often need multiple wifi sources to cover the ground floor. Modern homes with say 3 floors will often needca source on each level. 

Sky sell a packagecslled WiFi Max which can give up to 3 wifi extenders but you pay an amount each month see https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-wifi-max or you can buy one of the many third party wifi systems and use thst instead.
