Ways to improve the signal strength of my Wi-Fi to the other end of house cheaplyWed, 18 Sep 2024 17:20:49 +0000

173419invalid@example.com (Goodolpete)GoodolpeteI’ve got my router in the back extension, no other place to put it to get Ethernet cable to zgemma via outside wall. I’ve put a security camera on the front of the garage at the front of the house (40 feet away) which doesn’t get a strong signal. Can anyone recommend some cheap kit to improve the signal strength please.

172141invalid@example.com (bitterman)bittermanI have been using a tp link 4g lte router with and external aerial for internet in a caravan in lincolnshire. In truth it was mainly running 3g as all mobile signals are rubbish in the area but it was still reasonable. With the impending switch off of 3g I have heard that 5g is becoming available. Any suggestions as to what kit I would need for best reception on a medium budget (under £200). Unlocked to all networks preferably.]]>9New Internet Provider 2023Mon, 04 Dec 2023 00:03:45 +0000

Who do you recommend I go with as my contract is coming to an end with Vodafone, currently got FTTP 500 the problem with Vodafone is that they do "throttle" my speed quite often and they even admitted it blaming it on other people on my street using internet at the same time as me. I am just looking for switch for another provider either 900 or again 500 fftp, Also with Vodafone the WIFI signal is weak even with the booster they sent me I can not get decent WIFI connection upstairs...

Openreach installed fibre in the street last year and it's live, my neighbours have it at the 100+ speed. I don't want Virgin.
I'm looking at a 65mb speed with Unlimited phone, as that is what the Boss wants, so that rules out the highest speeds. There are plenty of broadband checkers who say I can get what I want until I try doing so, then I'm told there is...

167614invalid@example.com (OverTheWaves)OverTheWavesHi,
I'm looking to register a .com and .co.uk domain name via a UK registrar but seem to be struggling to find one which provides .co.uk privacy protection.
Namecheap seems not to provide this, but then states GDPR rules means your details aren't shown publicly (but nothing in concrete confirms this).
Google Domains states they can't provide any form of privacy for .co.uk domains.
Has anyone come across a domain registrar that can provide this service?

I‘be upgraded my sky broadband and been sent a new router.
went to set Up the new router exactly where the old one is, to find it isn’t picking up an internet signal.
Sky have said it needs to be plugged into the master socket which helpfully is nowhere near a plug socket.
is there a way I can wirelessly move this or an adapter I can get to change the other socket into a master socket?
thanks In advance]]>13Next Door Neighbour's Internet Defaulting to MineFri, 30 Jul 2021 18:15:32 +0000

The previous owner also had VM and connected the cable from the VM wall port to a Teleste ASH-40P hub that also has CCTV cameras connecting into it. I'm no expert as I've never seen this setup before. Do I just need to connect the cable from my new VM router to the Teleste device?]]>1Anyone using Jdownloader?Fri, 04 Jun 2021 00:14:31 +0000

no definitive answer. Can any guru put me straight please?

Does anyone have any recommendations on a free web site where I can upload some pictures and pdf or word documents and give that web address to people for them to be able to view.
Have had a look at a few sites but it appears to be a new web address for each picture which is not what I want.
