poor wifi
I have full fibre 500. I have two streaming pucks, one in the main living room and one in my daughters bedroom. She has always struggled to get consistent trouble free Wifi connection. I have a Sky wifi booster in her bedroom, makes no difference.
When checking the signal it always says excellent but then the TV says no internet!
I have a decent Sky package and of course pay a decent price.
I have followed all your wifi, broadband connection checkers, of course it says all good. I end up going around in circles on the Sky website trying different things, i get a bit fed up with paying the price then end up doing all the chasing, clicking, checking and keep paying. How would Sky like it if i said my payments to you are good or excellenet then not pay, you'd just cut me off and send instruct your debt agencies.
Can someone please help?

A booster is intended to be a mid-point device (halfway between router and client) : it cannot do any good when placed in a location which has a poor signal to begin with.
The Sky Help pages give advice on where to place the hardware.

Re: poor wifi
A poor signal in certain rooms is something that comes up on here on a regular basis so try going through this to see if it helps:
If not and if you have Wi-Fi Max on your account then Sky will loan up to 3 pods as you can read about here:
https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-wifi-max
So you can either call them on 150 from a landline phone or a mobile that has a Sky sim in it or Select "No, I still need help" at the bottom on the above link.
If someone has helped you then please click on the LIKES button in their post.
If you need help please provide as much information as you can
