Hey guys, I was hoping I could receive some advice and quickly if possible. I will explain why.
Recently, I bought a Samsung Galaxy A8 Tablet from Curry's online and had a hectic time getting the thing delivered and when it finally came, I noticed that the signal from the Wifi is really bad in my room.
The problem is that my room is far away from the BT Home Hub 5 router as I had to take it downstairs after an upgrade me and my family received and the engineer had to put the Router in a certain place in the living room, the issue is though like I said is that it's really far away from my room.
That being said, I never really had issues with the connection on my old IPad air which is near a decade old and my Samsung Phone which is a cheap A10 and it's about 3-4 years old now, so the question comes down to... is this due to my new tablet being faulty or just having a weak signal as I did read some reviews and people do state that it's one of the weaknesses of the Galaxy A8 Tablet or is it because that it's a more modern tablet and it requires more connection speed to work properly, it may be a silly question but I wouldn't say that I am the most tech savvy person in the world.
I also wanted to ask if it isn't to do with the tablet and should I keep it, can anyone give me a good recommendation on how I can speed up my connection in my room as I already tried a WiFi extender which is BT which I got on Amazon a long time ago when I was having connection issues before, it's a BT WiFi extender 1200, but the problem with that is that the connection is still slow, in fact it's slower than the usual connection I would receive from just connecting to the Wifi itself. but I did notice that my tablet does receive a good signal from the extender and it doesn't from the actual Wifi so I am in a bit of a dilemma and hope someone can help me out with this as if I do decide to return the tablet, I need to return it soon to Curry's or they won't give me a refund.
Thanks!
