Thinking switching to sky BB and the max package.
I have ring cameras on outside of building and needing extenders to connect at present with BT.
Are the max pods decent and give a good signal ?

Re: Sky WiFi Max
One point to note is that Max pods are WiFi 5 rather than WiFi 6. The various Sky WiFi 'guarantees' specifically exclude outside spaces, so it wouldn't be possible to claim for that purpose.

@mormegil Are your BT white Whole home wi-fi or the Black Complete wi-fi, white should work fine, black is a NO NO!

Re: Sky WiFi Max
Did you have extenders already and did they connect up automatically ?
