Frequently Asked Questions
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.
Is it possible to combine wired and wireless solutions?
Yes. The most effective home networks use wired backbone cabling with wireless access points.
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.
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.
Should I update my router’s firmware?
Yes. Firmware updates often include security patches and performance improvements that help stabilise your WiFi network.
Is it possible to hardwire upstairs rooms without visible cables?
In most cases yes. We use loft spaces, wall cavities, and discreet routing methods to minimise visible cabling.
