Re: Wifi bad on PC
How far away is your computer to your broadband hub so are they in the same room ?

You may have upgraded your broadband speed to the fastest available (not the wifi) but speed to the hub is pretty much immaterial to the strength of the wifi signal. The best option is to hardwire the PC either to the hub or to a decent mesh system pod and let the pod handle the wifi. What wifi device do you use on the PC?
Firstly, unplug the hub for 10 minutes and then reboot, hopefully a channel rescan will find a less congested wifi channel.
Have a look at the following to see if they can resolve your problem easily if no success with the above, you can also use the MySky app. If not you may need to consider either the Sky WiFi Max add-on package or perhaps purchasing a 3rd party mesh system (which remains yours regardless of ISP used and would be my own personal choice).
