When should you consider that it’s time to upgrade your home Wi-Fi? In this post, I discuss 5 of the tell-tale signs that your household’s tech needs have outgrown the capacity of your current home Wi-Fi system. We discuss methods to check if your broadband subscription needs upgrading or there are line faults that need fixing. If the five common home technology scenarios discussed are familiar occurrences. Finally I discuss how to restore online harmony. With a strong and stable connection throughout your home.
Have you been in the middle of a video call with colleagues when your audio suddenly distorts and becomes inaudible? Or the video image freezes and you drop out of the conversation completely. It’s embarrassing and sometimes costly. This random problem often leaves you wondering why some times your Wi-Fi connection seems ok. Then other times you can barely manage to get anything done around slow connectivity and complete disconnects.
Have you ever settled down to stream your favourite series and found yourself watching the buffering circle turning? This irritating situation is a symptom of your smart TV not receiving an adequate Wi-Fi signal to download the content quickly enough.
This common issue occurs when the device connected to the Wi-Fi is not communicating fast enough with the router. Therefore, the experience is a noticeable lag when online gaming. The most efficient and fastest method to transport data is via a cable from the console, PC, or tablet to the router. Where this is not possible, most up-to-date, correctly configured home Wi-Fi installations will support data throughput so that the gaming experience is unaffected.
Many modern CCTV and Alarm systems rely on a consistent and stable connection from the device to the internet. For example, if your cameras frequently drop offline, you will find that most features will not function as intended. You may get flaky video when viewing your property remotely or missing footage if you ever want to playback the footage.
Technology continues to provide us with many helpful and convenient applications both in and around the home. There are many reasons why it is increasingly important to have a strong and consistent internet connection outdoors. Examples include charging and communicating with your EV (Electric Vehicle) and continuous and reliable functioning of home security systems. Adequate Wi-Fi reach is essential for music and internet access in your garden patio, bar, or office areas. All these examples are reliant on reliable and consistent Wi-Fi. Distance from the router is a common reason for this problem and a sign that an upgrade to your home Wi-Fi network is overdue.
If one or more of the above scenarios blight your online time. Your current setup may be creaking under the strain. There is a good chance that it’s time to upgrade your home Wi-Fi network. There are a few possible causes to consider. One or more of your Network devices could be overloaded and not have enough capacity to cope with the activity. Other things to consider are a home network bottleneck or a problem with the broadband service to your home. In most cases, the root cause of home internet connectivity issues is the distance to the nearest Wi-Fi router, booster, or access point.
Technology is continually advancing, so it makes sense that your home Network should also be up-to-date to best support your tech. Wi-Fi 6 is the latest network protocol. It provides a greater streaming capacity for all your Wi-Fi 6 compatible devices to communicate effectively with your router. Wi-Fi 5 is still a viable protocol and supports ample capacity, speeds, and device compatibility. Meeting the performance needs of most households. Leading us to the next question; do I upgrade the broadband subscription or optimise and distribute my bandwidth more efficiently?
You can assess if your home has reached broadband capacity by following our handy guide How to Test the Wi-Fi Signal Strength in your Home.
This blog walks you through testing broadband to your property. Then compare the strength and quality of Wi-Fi signals in various locations around your home.
If the bandwidth to your home is ample reliable and consistent. You might be planning a new tech purchase, signing up for a streaming subscription, smart home automation, installing a security system, or purchasing an electric car. Bearing in mind these will all add extra overhead to your network. The next step is to consult a professional Wi-Fi engineer to assess how to distribute the available bandwidth where you need it.
In conclusion, installing a quality home network, correctly, will provide the infrastructure to support all your devices and systems to their optimum potential. It’s worth overhauling your home network infrastructure to prevent any pesky, annoying, and sometimes embarrassing connectivity issues. Now you can easily spot the signs that it’s time to upgrade your home Wi-Fi. If you would like further information, don’t hesitate to get in touch.

The install went smoothly and we have since had a good quality and stable connection. Thanks!
Suzanna Payak10/03/2022Used NetLinx Cabling to overhaul and fix ongoing Wifi issues my boss was experiencing at his home address. Chris, Jamie and the team provided 10/10 service and help from my initial enquiry all the way to resolution. They were tidy, efficient and friendly, resolving the issues quickly with their workmanship being to a incredibly high standard. I couldnt recommend them more. We will be using them again at other projects within the business. Thanks again :). Suzanna
Simon Bailey05/03/2022Excellent service. The team couldn't do enough to ensure we got everything we needed. Would definitely recommend to anyone who was looking for network installs either in the home or business.
Ian Fitzpatrick02/03/2022Fantastic job overhauling the home network. Having tried multiple solutions to conquer WiFi over the years, Chris and Jamie were able to come in, do the analysis and recommend a real world solution. Using trusted branded equipment, the end result has been fantastic with end to end coverage. If you need a network solution that 'just works' rather than the sales hype you get from the usual providers, then I can't recommend highly enough. Give them a call, you won't be disappointed!

Kalsoom Masood24/12/2021Netlinx installed network cabling and WiFi access point installation throughout our home. From the first point of contact, they were extremely helpful, efficient and informative. On the day the work was completed, they undertook a number of additional tasks which had not previously agreed without so much as raising an eyebrow, and their aftercare has also been excellent. An issue subsequently arose with our network provider, and not only did they take the time to guide me through a number of tests to try and identify the issue, but also spoke with the engineer that subsequently attended at my property to remedy the problem. I would not hesitate to recommend Netlinx: they are extremely professional and thoroughly deserve a 5 star rating!
Tony Richardson24/12/2021After initially having a single network cable installed for a teenagers games console we decided to go for a complete solution around the house. Jamie and Chris installed 4 Wi-Fi access points and additional cables to multiple Sky boxes. We have no Wi-Fi dead spots anymore and network speeds are high throughout the house. Work was completed to a very high standard with all kit and cabling hidden from view. Jamie and Chris are very polite, professional and they know their stuff. I would highly recommend them.
