    Hello all,


    Long story short I upgraded from sky to sky Q about 7 weeks ago. My download speed has dropped from a very reliable 70mbps to 40ish (powerline adapter on pc). The wireless download speeds seem ok but it drops out quite often for a few seconds. This never happened with the old router.



    Sky made some changes to the router but it didnt help. They dropped it from a max DL speed to a lower stable rate.



    I aware of the terms and conditions of the sky router etc etc but I was wondering if its just a matter of swapping out the sky router for a new better one? What router would you recommend if so? budget of €150<


    I have read a little about bridging. Is this a better solution?


    Thanks
    All
