WiFi extender

<< < (5/5)

Clive:
So it's not BT after all.  It's Hyperoptic which is a London based fibre system.  I've done a speed check on each floor and they work out as follows:

                Ping.               Download.                Upload

Floor 1.      41.                      26.7.                       25.5
Floor 2.      104.                    28.6.                       23.5
Floor 3.      61.                      25.8.                       14.4
Floor 4.      69.                      22.1.                       7.4

The router is on floor 1 and he is supposed to get 80 mps.  The package is called 1 Gbps which is a bit of a misnomer to me!

Simon:
My guess is he is supposed to get up to 80 Mbps - which is their usual get out of jail free card.  ::)  But, at least the WiFi extender seems to be distributing the signal quite well to the upper floors.

Clive:
Yes, it's quite a consistent upload speed and perfectly adequate.  Not sure the ping is top notch though.  The extender only cost £22 so it was a bargain.  We have seen no buffering at all and I've seen a lot of tv.  Same film repeated over and over but the music is good.  ;D
