hello all.
so since the sad loss of my dad, mum has decided she needs a laptop to sort all there finances, meetings, and other things that mums do.
at the mo there is 1 master socket and a bt installed extension socket upstairs in the study.
mum wants the laptop downstairs in the dining / kitchen.
a bt engineer is comming out tomorrow to fix a problem with the phone line outside the house, so i thought of asking him to ( heres £30 ) fit another socket in the room were the laptop is going to be to save the wireless kit going upstairs or all the way down the other end of the house.
would a socket in the same room as the laptop running wireless have a faster connection to that of a socket upstairs or a socket in another part of the house ?
many thanks
 
The router ought to be in the master socket always, most reliable & fastest connection that way. Sometimes they just won't connect in an extension socket.

ah ha, thanks for pointing that out
bt man wont have a wedge going his way then
master socket it is then

thanks for helping me out both of you :)
