Broadband Reach

mjkyorkshire240 — Tue, 28 Jul 2026 09:25:46 GMT

I recently moved into a three-storey terrace house and my broadband is struggling to reach the attic. What are my options to help with this please? Preferable affordable and not overly complicated.

@mjkyorkshire240 Speak to EE CS and the addon with Extenders to match the particular EE Hub you are using currently.

The 2.4 band has reasonable reach if the router is placed towards the middle of the house - its possible to run a LAN cable from the fibre ONT to the hub if it needs moving.

Powerline devices (not WiFi extenders but work over mains wiring) can work OK

A LAN cable from the hub to a LAN switch or a router in WIFI Access Point mode at the floor or room where you have devices gives good results - my current solution
