I have plusnet high speed fibre. I'm logged into the router and the speed coming down the line is currently 79.9 mb so it's pretty fast.
Ive had wi fi issues for a long time, mainly upstairs but the connection is never really stable anywhere in the house. It's a 1930s 3 bed semi.
Ive now tried, upgrading my package, using a booster and plusnet have sent me out a new router but I'm still having the same issues
Im sat next to the router and my phone is getting around 5mb
Wife is also sat next to the router but her phone is getting around 30mb
My sons xbox is currently getting around 10mb on the wi fi booster 5ghz extension upstairs but last week he was constantly at around 50mb, so I know the booster does work.
The Internet speed seems to constantly change. He is forever claiming his xbox is lagging. He's just got the brand new series s as well so I thought this might resolve the issue.
The network is obviously capable of getting high speeds but its not constant and seems to be very fast for a few days then very slow.
Just wondering what my options are. Seems like before investing in a pricey mesh setup Or similar I should probably just get a decent router first.
Im currently using the plusnet home hub 1, which is rubbish.
