Amazon Firestick

Hi, recently I had the new smart hub 2 and disc and since I set them up i've had no end of trouble with the wifi on the firestick. The hub is connected by ethernet to my PC in downstairs office, and i put the disc in the living room next to the TV. Every 30 minutes or so i get a notification on the TV from the firestick to say there is no wifi connection, when i check the network on fs it is really weak and say's i should connect to channel 4 on the 2.4ghz frequency which doesn't seem to be an option on the sh2 only 1, 6, 11 or smart. I can even get a much stronger signal on my neighbours sky wifi!!!

I hope this makes sense to someone and there are some solutions as it's driving me nuts!!!

Thanks in advance Richard

Probably not a good idea to have the disc so close to the TV, it's quite possible that the TV is generating RF noise which is interfering with the backhaul to the hub.

Thanks Les, i'll try moving it to a different part of the living room.
