Wifi Booster

[TheApeVine]

Hello, 

We had Vodafone Fibre installed recently but have found the signal drops off very rapidly as you move away from the router.

I picked up a second hand Vodafone Booster (FAST286) to try and improve things, but i can't seem to get it to connect.

We only have a standard 500Mbps connection, doyou need to have the Pro subscription for the boosters to work?

Cheers

You do really, however it is only the configuration of the router that need to be updated. If you try the live chat and explain they may update you router configuration so you can use it. (I think they call it provisioning.)

Once updated your WiFi settings in the router will look like this:

Instead of this:

I have two routers, one thinks it's on Pro and one doesn't. (I'm not)
