    Extend Asus 86U WiFi coverage

    I can get good wifi signal if I sit next to the house wall in the garden - however, if I move about 10 meters away from the wall (where my sitting area is) my wifi drops completely. I do have power in the garden yes.

    Extend Asus 86U WiFi coverage

    Asus RT-AC86U & Virgin Media Super Hub 3

    Hi all, Finally my Sky contract is up so Monday brings a fresh Virgin Media install. I've opted for the M350 broadband package which will hopefully be a nice upgrade from my Sky VDSL which is on an impacted line.
