Hi @Cookj 

Are you using any boosters or just the main Sky hub? Do you have Sky Q? How far away are you from the main Sky hub?

@Cookj 

Does your Sky Q work okay or drop out? It sounds like your laptop is flip flopping between your hub & the Sky Q hotspot.

If you move your laptop closer does the issue still occur?

No don't have a boster - and WiFi still drops of but not as bad when working closer to the router!

@Cookj Have you considered, that it may be a laptop issue and nothing to do with the actual sky Hub and Q wireless wi-fi signal.

@Cookj Is your laptop in the same room with the sky Q when you are working, if not it may be worth seeing if you can get a SE210 Sky Broadband Booster to go with your Sky Broadband Hub. Link below for the two devices! These two devices are matching with each other...
