Wheelyteenagers are driving me spare.

As I may have mentioned once or twice on other threads....I've moved house. The broadband is rubbish. By has been out twice and the signal is as good as it's going to get for the area...apparently.

I've heard of Boosters, broadband channels. Can anyone in the know or with experience give me any tips or suggestions??

And can I change broadband password....if so how??hatching a plan to get wherlyteenagers to help decorate and help around the house

Really appreciate your replies!
Not sure I still own an ethernet cableShock. Will have a hunt in the wires box and try the laptop with a connection / speed test.

If you don't have a cable do the test while you're standing next to the router (it will give you more or less the same result)

Tesco sell the cables. Last time I bought some, the thick blue ones were better than the thin black ones. I imagine Sainsbos etc do as well, in the phones and PCs section.

Our broadband was terrible- 3 days to download a HD film from Sky is just an example. Constant buffering too. No fibre optic available. Were at end of the exchange and was no way we could get a faster speed.

We moved! Was a major factor. Now have ultra fast fibre and are able to do things we couldn't before.
