My main BT line into the house, is the only one that will let broadband work, consequently my home hub is in the lounge but I want my PC to work elsewhere in the house, the problem is that the signal is very weak and the PC keeps losing the wireless signal. The lovely BT man, says the only answer is to operate with a cable....ummm so why have wireless. Is there a way to boost the output from the hub, so the PC can get the signal better?
Thank you

It is a wireless booster/extender and has got good reviews from people who have bought it.

Costs �41
We have the home hub also the signal is cr@p we've alredy had the line fixed*there was a fault* but if anyone uses of fones into the landline it cuts the net off, they sent us a new handset HUH then they found out after 3 dif guys from India gave me a migraine that we have a faulty hub so we have a new one but they havent sent the email for to reset both to change over Grrrrr btw my main box is in the hall and the pc is in sittingroom so using an extension, also when my son connects up his laptop *wireless* ive got to turn of my pc cos it runs like a 3 legged donkey, sorry for the rant, nothing to do with what you asked, just letting you know how rubbish this set up is

and it is out of stock at the moment.

Therema, sorry to hear about your problems - our BT Homehub works well wirelessly.

Chase up BT to get them to sort it or threaten to cancel!.
Hi wideboy we've already done this on numerous occasions but keep getting put thro to Indian guys at the technical bit Grrrrr no harm to them they got a job to do like everyone else but it still isnt solving my problem, im now sitting with 2 fones and 2 hubs lol and not getting full use of any of them but thanx anyway for your suggestion.
