Poor wifi

My WiFi Max is poor (even though the test says it is good) , especially upstairs on my desktop, and I need this back online asap as I have an online zoom meeting at 4pm.

@Smarty44  If it's poor wifi there is no way on this earth Sky could ever resolev it in 1 day, it sounds like to need a pod for upstairs which you'll need to call Sky to obtain.

 

Or do you mean there is an outage to your broadband service?

Re: Poor wifi

Thanks for the reply. I had a feeling that would be the case. It's not an outage, just very poor signal. I'll ring Sky now. Cheers.

Re: Poor wifi

I’ve got Sky Full Fibre Gigafast with WiFi Max. My Wi-Fi is very strong beside the router, but upstairs the signal drops dramatically. I’d like a Sky Max Pod to improve the coverage. How do I go about ordering one?  Thanks in advance.

You do need to explicitly ask for the first pod though.

 

Perhaps consider purchasing a 3rd party mesh system (which remains yours regardless of ISP used and would be my own personal choice).
