Very confused so any help would be fantastic. I live in a fairly new 3 story home and the ONT is in the cupboard in the corner of the home on ground floor. No way I can get it out of there without messing up nice new walls. I could possibly get it attached to the outside of the cupboard but worries me if the hassle will make and difference.
I have sky internet and get a very decent 150mb to the home. Issue is getting that around the home especially 2nd floor.
It have a sky booster and have tried this in 1st and 2nd floor without making much difference to speed I get on 2nd floor. Varies massively one minute to next between 30mb down to 0.5mb.
Also have sky mini boxes on 2nd floor but that doesn’t help. It’s so bad even sky mini boxes are really slow/cut our randomly.
Been looking at mesh/booster/powerlines but very confused whet will/wont make a difference.
Also to make it worse the ground floor is on a different electrical circuit to the 1st and 2nd floor so not even sure power lines will work when connected to router on different circuits..
As I say not very knowledgeable so any advise very welcome.
Sky engineer due tomorrow but am expecting him to simply say move router out of cupboard. Just remembered I have moved it out of cupboard temporarily but cables only long enough to put it on floor outside cupboard and now can’t close door lol. Again made little/no difference
