Bit of a rant, sorry. Had my router swapped last week because the old one kept rebooting. The new box is honestly worse in the bedroom upstairs. Downstairs near the TV it's fine, but upstairs video calls freeze and my son's gaming keeps kicking him out.
House is a standard 3-bed semi, router is in the hall by the front door because that's where the engineer put it years ago. I've tried turning it off and on again, moving the router a little, changing the Wi-Fi name, all the usual stuff. I don't really want to pay extra for anything if I can help it.
Any actual tips for dead zones? Or is this just what broadband is like now?
Thanks both. It's on the floor beside the console thing, so maybe that isn't helping. I don't know about the bands - I just see one Wi-Fi name on my phone. Do I need to split it or something? I'm not great with tech if I'm honest.
