Just bought my self one of these from the bay of the unmentionables, hoping to do a straight swap for my useless sky hub. They are supposed to have a better range and are dual band. We shall see.

Not had any issues with mine, wifi stretches to the garage and front of the house. But mine is a modern house with no solid internal walls.....
Do you have a Q box?

No, but it's not for the lack of sky trying.

You know, I know, my Mum's dog knows, they are all universally shite. End of.
The latest of the best of the current crop are, at best, adequate for now.

Yep, can't beat a bit of wet string. :y
Bit of a shame that's all we have for the incoming connection to the house, but there we are.

Don't knock wet string!

Don't tell BT. ::)

Hub arrived today. Much quicker to connect downstairs and seems a bit better upstairs. I'll give it a chance to settle down.

Much better. I have a netgear WiFi extender in a bedroom which was having trouble getting enough of a signal to actually extend. It's working much better now and I'm getting a reasonable signal throughout the house. For £25 it's a useable, if not perfect, solution. :)

When you do get Sky Q installed, each box (the main SkyQ Box, and each 'multi-room box) act as WiFi access points, so if you have multi-room, you effectively have a strong signal whever the DigiBox is.
