Hi All,
I have Sky Q and fibre broadband. I run two additional Sky Q minis - one in a room adjacent to the main box and one in a bedroom directly above it.
The WiFi range of the sky router is poor. I get poor / intermittent coverage at the upper rear of the house and also have some Ring cameras outside which get little coverage. I'd also like to get WiFi into the garage which is a couple of brick walls away from the sky router.
Would upgrading to a compatible router (eg TP Link VR2800) fix the range issue?
Are the any better alternatives (Mesh network?).
I assume the Sky Q and mini's would continue to work with a new router? I think they work as mesh hubs too? I don't really understand it to be honest.
Edit - My other main requirement is for there to be one network throughout the house.
I need it spelled out to me, because I don't know much about this topic!
Cheers,
Mike
