Does anyone know which router model Sky are currently shipping for their Sky 150 full fibre product, is it the older SR203 or the newer SR213? Also, if I wanted to use something better is there a recommended router or am I best to go for a mesh system?

Good morning all, I hope someone can help. I work for a charity and want to investigate providing social tariff broadband to our clients living in their own flats. They are under 18 so we will take on the first 12 months and pay up front, then it can go into their name as they will have turned 18 by the time the 12 months…

Best way to extend wifi upstairs?
Hi We would like to
extend our wifi network to an upstairs bedroom; the modem/router is
in our front room, and we intend to take the PC upstairs. Having done a bit of

involve drilling and other…

LACK OF FIBRE PROVIDERS ON THE COMPARE BROADBAND DEALS PAGE
I have recently had a doorstep visit from Connect Fibre regarding their deals yet find no information about them on the site, yet they look to have a lot of good reviews on trustpilot.

Tried to sign up for Vodafone broadband - a bad experience!
I was hoping to sign up to a Vodafone broadband deal that seemed pretty competitive. However the sign-up process was awful. I think the problem was that I once had a MyVodafone account linked to a mobile number I no longer have. I ended up going round in circles and, despite several attempts at getting things sorted using…

Sky offering £200 to settle my complaint
I signed up to Sky Broadband and Talk during Black Friday. I requested to keep my old number (of over 30 years) but they assigned me a different one.

TIP: You're entitled to a FREE battery backup for your router if you have no mobile signal
When the phone companies took away landlines, they were supposed to ensure you have access to emergency services in a power cut. That means if you live in an area with no/poor mobile signal, they have to give you a battery backup to keep your router on long enough for you to report the power cut/call 99 etc. If you call BT…
