Can’t order WiFi pod

Have used the connect app to homescan all rooms and most of them say my WiFi is poor, but doesn’t let me order a WiFi pod. The app says I can order them online but been going round and round in circles. I have Volt and spend over £100 a month and WiFi upstairs is useless, please help!

  • Hi ShaunHawk thanks for posting and welcome back to our community.

    Sorry to hear your WiFi connection is not reaching all the rooms in your property. And sorry to hear that the connect app has not allowed you to order a pod. I would like to help you resolve this. I am going to send you a private message. Please keep an eye on your inbox in the top right of your screen.

    Regards

      Hi bigguy283 

      Welcome back to the community forums 

      Sorry to hear that you're having WiFi issues in some rooms of the home. 

      Have you been able to run a test on the connect app to see what speeds you're getting upstairs? 

      If not, you can also run a test on our Sam Knows speed test here which will show you the speeds at the router and the speed at the device. Ensure you're connected to your home network and have no VPN enabled so the test can run. 

      Post a screenshot of your results and we can go from there if still needed.
