We should point out that homes with older <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vm\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Virgin Media<\/a> installs can suffer from similarly poor placement, albeit due to different reasons.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, even some new build homes can run into the same sort of problems, with telecoms sockets and kit frequently still being placed inside a single space, such as under the stairs or inside a poorly positioned cabinet. Often this is far from ideal for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/wifi\">WiFi<\/a> signals, which ends up meaning that the homeowner has to compensate by spending more on alternative solutions (e.g. signal boosters, Mesh repeaters, powerline, wired networking) or awkward cable extensions.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>How full fibre can help home WiFi<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The national deployment of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a> doesn&#8217;t just have to be about improving fixed line broadband. Savvy homeowners should also see it as a unique opportunity to re-consider, and perhaps change, where the new cables (fibre) enter their home, with the goal being the most optimal placement of your wireless router. Naturally, this won&#8217;t be possible for every home, due to various limitations, but for many people it will.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-33481\" style=\"float: right; padding: 0px; margin-left: 5px; width: 50%; height: 100%; border-radius: 4px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/nggallery_import\/Cityfibre-ONT-Installed-in-Home-2023.jpg\" alt=\"Cityfibre-ONT-Installed-in-Home-2023\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/nggallery_import\/Cityfibre-ONT-Installed-in-Home-2023.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/nggallery_import\/Cityfibre-ONT-Installed-in-Home-2023-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/nggallery_import\/Cityfibre-ONT-Installed-in-Home-2023-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/nggallery_import\/Cityfibre-ONT-Installed-in-Home-2023-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/nggallery_import\/Cityfibre-ONT-Installed-in-Home-2023-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/>The vast majority of new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a> installations will require an engineer to both work on the outside of your home (i.e. installing a wall box and drilling a hole for your fibre) and on the inside (i.e. run fibre from the drill hole to an optical modem called an ONT \/ ONU, which must be near to a plug socket). The engineer will have a fair amount of flexibility in how they do this, at least up to a point (lots of extra work may attract additional costs, so have in mind a few location options before they start work and discuss).<\/p>\n<p>The goal should be to try and position your ONT and router in a location where the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/wifi\">WiFi<\/a> signal will deliver the best possible coverage for your needs. Often this will be a central location that does not obstruct the signals much, with the router ideally being positioned higher up (i.e. above the normal level of room furniture or clutter and away from other electrical devices).<\/p>\n<p>At this point it&#8217;s worth remembering that you&#8217;re not really limited by the length of LAN (Ethernet) cable between the ONT and router, so as long as you can hide those cables then a longer run (e.g. under the floorboards) may give you extra flexibility for router placement.<\/p>\n<p>In my own case we already had underfloor cables, so the ONT could still come in next to the old Master Socket and all we needed to do was move the router to the other end of the Ethernet cable, instead of having it next to the Master Socket. This meant the router was now in a better position, and we&#8217;ve since found that the old Mesh WiFi kit is no longer needed, which reduced clutter, freed up power sockets and reduced electricity usage a bit.<\/p>\n<p>As we said at the start, properties and experiences do vary, but the reason for writing this article is because we&#8217;ve seen quite a few people getting FTTP installed and doing so without really realising, or taking the time to consider, that they could also use the opportunity to change their existing router placement to benefit WiFi (i.e. a lot of people just have the ONT installed near to their old Master Socket, but you don&#8217;t have to!).<\/p>\n<p>So, remember, have a think before the engineer arrives and discuss some placement options with them before they begin their work. In fact, it may be that WiFi isn&#8217;t your priority, but the same opportunity still exists for change. So don&#8217;t just assume that everything has to go in the same place as it always has, because it doesn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One often overlooked advantage of the national rollout of gigabit-capable Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) broadband ISP networks across the United Kingdom is that it also provides homeowners with a unique opportunity to solve a historic problem, the correct placement of their wireless routers for optimal signal distribution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":21262,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,1],"tags":[56,476],"class_list":["post-34933","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-editorial_article","category-uk_isp_news","tag-fttp","tag-wifi"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/mastodon.social\/@ispreview\/111655112453723037","error":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
