WiFi extremely slow and drops out frequently

My WiFi struggles to get above 40mbps and is dropping out every few minutes. My hub is literally next to me when this happens.

@Ah555 Do you see anything happening on the hub light or lights at this time?

Done that already. Thanks I'll give them a call. Should have 500 mb so 40 and consistent drop outs is frustrating

@Ah555 From your descriptions posted, you would appear to have a FF with Sky Max hub, and as you have a speed/wi-fi issue then suggest you look at the link below and see if dropping back to wpa2-psk mode off security is better.

 

Sky Max change settings link.
