Looking for some advice on my set up. As the title suggests I live in an old house with thick walls, it’s a large house so WIFI struggles in every room.
I’ve just upgraded my Sky router to a TP link archer VR400 after numerous connection/drop out issues. It has helped but still struggles for a good connection in certain rooms. I’ve ran some diagnostics and messed around with some of the settings such as channel etc
I’ve got a Sky Q mini box upstairs but when I changed the router I obviously lost the hot spot functionality. Since doing this actually I can see the main box is now showing it’s own SSID?
I’ve got CAT cables from behind the TV where the router is currently situated (and where the phone socket is) down to the cellar which houses a 24 port network switch with various things connected to it (hue, heating, hikvison cctv). I’ve also got a Texecom ricochet alarm which also is connected. so there is a lot going on!
So the question is how and what can help with the signal? I’ve also got the router on a glass tv stand, is this ok? If I was to move it to another room what would I need to do?
TIA
