NBN, Wi-Fi and internet help in Adelaide
Slow internet is usually not the plan you are paying for. It is a router in a hallway cupboard, a channel every neighbour is also using, a 2.4GHz band your phone keeps clinging to, or a modem your provider posted out four years ago.
I measure before I change anything — at the connection, then room by room — so we can tell the difference between a service fault worth escalating to your provider and a Wi-Fi problem I can fix that afternoon. Plenty of Adelaide homes are older, double-brick and two-storey, which Wi-Fi genuinely struggles with.

NBN, Wi-Fi & Internet Help — common questions
Is it my internet plan or my Wi-Fi?
That is exactly the question worth answering first, and it is cheap to answer. A wired test at the connection point tells us what is actually arriving at the house. If the line is fine and the rooms are not, it is Wi-Fi and I can fix it. If the line itself is underperforming, you have a case to take to your provider and I will help you make it.
Are Wi-Fi extenders any good?
The cheap plug-in kind usually halve your speed and create a second network your devices refuse to switch to. A proper mesh system, or better still a wired access point in the right spot, solves the problem instead of moving it. I will tell you which your place actually needs.
Can you run a cable to a room instead?
Where the building allows it, yes, and it is almost always the better answer for a TV, a desktop or a home office. One well-placed wired point often does more for a house than any amount of Wi-Fi tuning.
