Re: New to Virgin Gigabit – Router Placement & Ethernet Setup Advice Needed
Alot of this doesn't make sense to me, the box on the outside is just a termination point. I can't see what relevance this has on where you want your hub, you simply ask the techncian to just add a long cable to where you desire. Having a thicker cable means you have less signal loss, its easy to make a signal weaker by adding an attenuator. You could post your signal levels up if you so wish. Even the best Powerline on the market (Devolo Magic 2) won't give you even a quarter of the speed your paying for so its not an option. Virgin boosters will give you wifi signal in places you currently don't but it won't give you anywhere near the speeds you are paying for. Your options are pay £25 for Virgin to move the router to where you want it, you don't have to move the omni box OR run your own Cat5e from the virgin hub to the location you require.27Views0likes0Comments
