    Info Skybox f5 Wifi fix!!!

    From what i have read the wifi connections on the skybox's are very unstable as was mine

    So my router is dual band (2.5ghz and 5ghz) when you connect to your wifi it will just flick between them to give you the best signal/connection

    So i had a idea if i created too separate wifi names with one for 5ghz and one for 2.5ghz eg ROUTER-name-1234 and ROUTER-name-1234-2.5ghz this will stop your wifi gadgets flicking between them because of the different names

    I have connected all of my phones laptops tablets etc to the ROUTER-name-1234

    Then i just connected the skybox f5 with the skybox wifi dongle to the ROUTER-name-1234-2.5ghz so its the only thing on that frequency and now it seems to be a stable connection had no problems so far

    Not sure if this is just a stroke of luck on my part so wouldn't recommend spending money on this until a few other people have confirmed it worked
