Re: Wifi not very good

Which router are you using?
A PlusNet supplied one?

Is your laptop signal good when nearer the router?

I think you can try changing the channel or splitting the 2.4 and 5 Ghz bands and see if using either separately makes a difference in your property.

Re: Wifi not very good

Thanks @Smileygirl68,

 

Please let us know if you continue to experience connection problems after you've changed the WiFi channels and split the bands.

 

Do you experience any problems on wired connections or is this solely a wireless issue?
