Full Fibre installed but WiFi signal very weak

We had full fibre installed yesterday but all of us in the house have terrible WiFi connectivity on our phones. We are having to use our mobile data!  Never, ever had this issue with our previous Talk Talk router.  My question is....Talk Talk has created this issue (possibly by installing the full fibre in a different room than our previous router)...do they send out WiFi boosters for free or do we have to buy our own??  Thanks for any help.

Hi @spurano 

 

I see that you have two threads open for the same problem. This will lead to confusion, so I will move the other one out of the way where I started to help you.

 

When you get the WiFi Booster that @Karl-TalkTalk has sent you, if you need any help with that, just let me know.

Hi

 

had a look at your wifi, cant see any localised interference, and no transmit or receive errors showing for either channel, so all looks ok in general.

 

I've a wifi booster on the way to you, so place this mid way when it arrives, and see if this gives any improvement.

Hi.... thanks.  Bit tricky to answer.

 

Distance to most devices has now increased.  But the distance to our dining TV (smart TV) is actually about the same.....only now, the WiFi signal is terrible....lots of buffering that we never got before.  Although the distance to that TV is about the same there is only 1 wall to travel through whereas previously there were 2 walls.....but it worked 100% previously!  House is 2 levels.  All our downstairs walls are solid.  All upstairs walls are plasterboard walls.

Hi

 

is the distance from your devices increased, do you just have the standard plasterboard walls in the property, and how many levels are there ?
