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 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.

Can you improve WiFi without upgrading my broadband package?

Yes. In many cases poor WiFi performance is caused by router placement or signal obstruction rather than broadband speed. Repositioning the router or installing wired access points often resolves coverage issues without increasing your monthly package.

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.

Are WiFi issues common in new build homes?

Yes. Fibre entry points are often placed near the front of properties, leading to weak coverage in rear rooms.

What causes buffering even when speed tests look fine?

Speed tests measure connection at the router. If your device is far from the router, poor WiFi signal can cause buffering even if broadband speed is good.
