A poor signal in certain rooms is something that comes up on here on a regular basis so try going through this to see if it helps:

If not and if you have Wi-Fi Max on your account then Sky will supply up to 3 pods as you can read about here:

So you can either call them on 150 from a landline phone or a mobile that has a Sky sim in it or Select "No, I still need help" at the bottom on the above link.

Hi @Taysworld2 

If @caesarome 's suggestion isn't for you, an alternative option is to purchase/install your own Mesh wi-fi network.

Fibre broadband enters our bungalow at the front and a single standard router/modem would not cover the rooms towards the rear of the property. I went with Amazon Eeros (needed four to give full coverage including out the back on the patio/garden). This has worked flawlessly for over 2 years now with both TalkTalk and Sky broadband. It doesn't have to be expensive as I believe you can find solutions that start at well under £100, but it will depend how many devices you need to cover all rooms.

A big advantage of having your own Mesh network (in my opionion) is that if/when you change broadband suppliers your network remains the same and you do not have to re-connect every device to the new one using a new SSID/password.

I hope that you find a solution that works for you.
