WiFi so slow
So I upgraded to 150mps a couple of months ago. Openreach would only fit the inbound boxes and router in the garage.
It would not run a cable around the house to where the orginal master socket was.
The Wifi signal was awful. Sky told me that if I wanted to boost it with WiFi max it would have been a lot more money each month.
I bought a TP Link booster, connected it to an ethernet cable from the router and started to get 100mps at the back of the house, which I was happy with.
My connection went down for two days and when Sky reinstated it, my Wifi at the back of the house barely reaches 10mps and one of my mini boxes will not connect as the signal is so poor.

That would be £6 for Wifi Max which then allows the loan on up to 3 pods (boosters0, the first of which is self installed and the others by an engineer.
