Weak WiFi in some rooms
WiFi works near the router but drops or crawls in bedrooms, upstairs or the back of the house.
Likely causes
- • Router placed in a corner or cabinet
- • Thick concrete or block walls
- • Older 2.4 GHz-only router
- • Weak mobile signal mistaken for weak WiFi
Recommended solution
First move the router to a central, raised spot. If rooms are still weak, add a WiFi extender for one room or a mesh system for several.
Installation: Usually self-install. Book setup if you want the best node placement.
Estimated cost: ₦25,000 – ₦180,000 (sample estimate)
Expected limitations
- • An extender roughly halves speed for devices connected to it
- • No WiFi product can fix a weak mobile signal from the network provider

FAQs
- Extender or mesh?
- An extender suits one weak room. Mesh suits several rooms or floors.
- Will it increase my internet speed?
- No. It spreads the speed you already have to more rooms.
