    How to Improve Home Wi-Fi: Tips and Advice

    Published almost 2 years ago

    Are you tired of dealing with slow internet speeds and constant buffering? Do you find yourself wondering how to fix poor Wi-Fi and boost your Wi-Fi signal at home? Look no further!

    The fact is that many of us have multiple devices, working from home is common and dare we even mention the need for a good Wi-Fi signal during the school holidays, so it’s no wonder that Wi-Fi can be sluggish when it’s having to work extra hard.

    Who doesn’t love a nice glass of wine? A drop of rose in the summer perhaps, or a crisp, dry white? Maybe a full-bodied red is your choice?

    Imagine balmy summer evenings spent in the garden of your new home in Newport with a tipple, or cosy nights in front of a roaring log fire supping a glass or two – so many of us enjoy wine in moderation as a way of relaxing and socialising with friends in our homes.
