Thanks everyone. I'm going to have to go there and see what is actually set up and take it from there. :ty:

What do you mean by servers? As far as I'm aware it is simply a modem router at the main entrance which then provides the wifi signal and then one ethernet port to each studio out of the back of the router. I think I'm going to need to go there and take a look at the actual set up as my mate...

Thanks for the quick response. The only thing he knows at the moment is that the ethernet socket is live and provides about 100MBs. So in theory if he plugs in an old router and configures it to a different channel to the weak wifi it should work? The building owner provides the wifi and told...

I'm hoping someone can help. A friend has just moved into a new studio office where the router wifi is shared with a couple of other studios. He does however have a cabled ethernet socket in the wall. Unfortunately, the wifi signal is almost non-existent and he needs a mix of wifi and cabled...

Thanks both. I'll pass on the advice.

Happy new year. I have a friend who is trying to build a website for a local charity that he is involved in and sent me a question that I have no idea about. He is using wordpress for a website. When he adds an image from another website using it's address it always takes up 100% of the...

Well a week later and still no issues so going to stick with my trusty Asus AC68u. Xbox one and Firestick (both in different room to router) now wired with a couple of powerlines and everything is faultless. Thanks to everyone for your comments.:ty:

As a quick update, I tried the Virgin hub and still had dropouts. I phoned Virgin Media up who confirmed that there were no issues at all at their end. However, within 5 minutes of ending the call my internet is back to normal with steady speeds of 100Mb+ and Wifi speeds back in the 50-60Mb. I'm...

Thanks. I'll give that a go tonight.

Thanks for your input both. I'm with Virgin for close on 20 years and never really had a problem until now. My Virgin superhub 3 is pretty poor to be honest and when I've used that for wifi, I lose the signal to most of the house, which is why I bought the Asus router. No extension leads to...

I've been having issues with dropped connections and sluggish behaviour from my router over the last month so am thinking about buying a new one. My current router is an Asus RT-AC68u (which I bought off here) and I don't think it is a coincidence that the issues started shortly after a...

Thanks for the suggestion. Would I have to invite/add everyone to the group individually? Also not everyone is on Facebook that will be there.

That looks perfect and a feature of Dropbox I hadn't heard of. Thanks again Rob

Thanks Rob, That was the only option I could think of as I've done that many times for family, etc. As there could be potentially a couple of hundred people there, I don't fancy setting access individually if I can help it.

My wife is having a birthday party (landmark age ;)) and she has asked everyone to take photographs throughout the day/evening and then upload them to 'the cloud' for her to see. What she forgot to ask first was whether this was possible. I've got Dropbox, google Drive and One Drive and...
