@Helen22605 you need tto determine if thecslow down is due to the brosdbsnd speed Sky is providing to the hub or the speed of uour home WiFi. If the speeds in the Service Checker look to be correct for your line which sounds likely if it ireporting no issues then its likely to be the WiFi signal strength in your home which Sky cannor control.

 

Poor WiFi coverage is probably the most common question we get in the forum. In many homes a single Sky hub cannot provide a usable wifi signal in every room due to the layout and type of construction of the property especially in older homes. Assuming the hub is in the best possible position which is out in the open on a surfsce then the only answer is additional wifi sources. 

Your choice.is to either buy Sky's add-on WiFi Max bundle which can supply up to 3 extenders see https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-wifi-max or buy your own wifi system and use that instead of the Sky hub's WiFi.
