Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between 2.4GHz and 5GHz WiFi?
2.4GHz offers wider coverage but lower speeds, while 5GHz provides faster speeds over shorter distances. Modern networks use both for balanced performance.
Is it possible to combine wired and wireless solutions?
Yes. The most effective home networks use wired backbone cabling with wireless access points.
Can you improve WiFi in a loft conversion?
Yes. Installing a wired access point in the loft area significantly improves signal strength.
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.
What is the benefit of Cat6 cabling?
Cat6 cabling supports high-speed data transfer and provides a stable backbone for access points and wired devices.
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.
