Frequently Asked Questions
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.
Do thick walls affect WiFi performance?
Yes. Solid brick, stone, and reinforced walls significantly reduce WiFi signal strength. Wired access points are often the best solution in these properties.
Can you move the fibre ONT to a better position?
No. The fibre ONT itself normally cannot be moved once installed. However, we can install a Cat6 data cable from the ONT to another location in your home so the router can be positioned in a better, more central place for improved WiFi coverage.
Why is my WiFi strong near the router but weak upstairs?
WiFi signals weaken when passing through floors, walls, and ceilings. Installing a wired access point upstairs usually provides a much stronger and more consistent connection.
What is a wired access point?
A wired access point is a device connected directly to your router using Ethernet cabling. It creates a new WiFi signal in another area of your home without the signal loss associated with wireless repeaters.
Can you improve WiFi in three-storey homes?
Yes. Multi-level homes often require wired access points on each floor for reliable coverage.
