Hi All,

I have looked through this page but could not find much.

Basically I have Sky fibre and the sky supplied router. our oldish house phone line is right by the front door and our walls are all brick.

As such the wireless performance in certain rooms is poor. We also have a good 15 connections in this house i suppose

3 x phones
2 x tablets
3 x laptops
1 x pc
3 x kodi
1 x netflix
1 x tv
1 x xbox

Obviously not on all the time, In the loft conversion the connection is to poor to get a connection thats reliable.

Recently then i bought a netgear £15 wireless extender that now resides in the hallway mid floor.

Initially everything was dandy, this little booster was unreal made everywhere full signal, but more recently only in the loft, every now and then we cannot connect to anything, both routers stating incorrect password and just connection problems in general. If i walk downstairs with my laptop. Boom connected straight away. This is becoming more and more of a problem.

I cant think of anything interfering with it, but could the wireless extender be interfering? I am stumped and its really frustrating.

Thanks
Ross
