Frequently Asked Questions
Is upgrading to full fibre the only solution for poor WiFi?
No. Many WiFi issues are internal network problems rather than broadband supply problems. Improving internal layout is often more effective.
What causes WiFi interference and how can it be reduced?
Microwaves, cordless phones, Bluetooth devices, thick walls, and neighbouring networks can interfere with WiFi signals. Adjusting router placement and improving network layout helps reduce interference issues.
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.
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 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.
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.
