Frequently Asked Questions

Is moving the router to a better location possible?

Yes. While the fibre ONT usually remains in its original position, we can install data cabling to relocate your router to a more central location, significantly improving WiFi distribution throughout the property.

Is wired backhaul important for mesh systems?

Yes. Mesh systems perform significantly better when connected using wired backhaul rather than wireless linking between nodes.

Why should I test my speed using a wired Ethernet connection?

Testing with a wired connection helps determine whether slow speeds are caused by broadband supply or internal WiFi distribution. If wired speeds are good but WiFi is slow, the issue is usually signal coverage.

Are hardwired WiFi access points better than extenders?

Yes. Hardwired access points connected via Ethernet provide stronger, more stable coverage compared to plug-in WiFi extenders, which often reduce speeds.

Why is my WiFi slow even though my broadband speed is good?

You can have fast broadband at the router but still experience slow WiFi in rooms far away or through thick walls. Installing wired access points or improving router positioning usually resolves this.

Can you improve WiFi in a garden office?

Yes. We can run external-grade Ethernet cable to garden offices or outbuildings and install a dedicated access point for reliable connectivity.
