WiFi Blackspot in study, pod fair signal

Cato671
Tuning in

Hi I’ve got a WiFi blackspot/slow speed in the study which is not ideal - it’s the worst signal in the house. I’m achieving download speeds of 8mbps and upload of 1mbps according to the connect app. The WiFi printer often isn’t connected due to the signal so I imagine it is sometimes worse. I have 1 pod which has a fair signal but keeps going offline. It appears that I probably need another pod from what the connect app says. I was told I could have more for free with the package I’m on when I signed up. I’ve tried to get through by phone but it’s a long wait. Does anyone know how to get an additional pod (do VM monitor this?) or is there somewhere I can message?.

Is the pod halfway between the hub and the target machine?

Hi Cato671

Happy New Year! Thanks for your post.

I'm sorry to hear you've been having trouble with your broadband. After looking this end, I can see that there's quite a few signal issues affecting your property, so it sounds like it's not just an issue with your WiFi but your entire connection.

We'll need to arrange for an engineer to visit and resolve these issues - if, once the power level issues have been resolved but you're still having issues in your study, we can arrange for another WiFi Pod to be sent out, provided your current pod is located halfway between the Hub and the target room as Tudor advises.

I've dropped you a private message so I can take 

Thanks,

Beth
