Wi-fi or Harwire to BT Router

Hi All,

 

I have BT Broadband at the moment. I have hardwired a mini box directly from the router as I was having connectivity issues over wi-fi, unfortunately it appears that the wi-fi overrides the hard wire, does that sound right right.

 

Any advise is much appreciated.

 

TIA

 

Steve

hi @Steve+the+Gooner 

 

Is the main box also connected via ethernet to the router ?

 

When your ISP is not SKY (as you are with BT) then,  if  not this will be an issue as the mini must be connected directly to the Main box or both the main & mini connected via ethernet via the router or an unmanegd switch
