    Hey folks

    Just got SIRO, fortunately I don't plan to have the Vodafone modem be my AP for very long but at this point it is.

    Over the wire I'm getting 950ish, which is great, over wifi getting 500-700mb ish, which is fine.

    Problem I'm having is that I'm finding the Vodafone routers signal just disappears in pockets and then the devices that were using it fail

    Anyone else?

    I can't get 5ghz signal 15 feet away with 2 plasterboard walls between router and room, and the 2.4ghz signal is weak (never had this problem with my previous sky hub). When in the same room as the router or room beside it the signal is grand but as you said it randomly "fails". Connecting will be live but the laptop or phone stops recieving data from the router and you have to disconnect and reconnect to the WiFi network to get it to work again, this happens all the time.

    On top of that I have a landline which I need for work etc, if you power down the router for any reason you have to call costumer support and have them reset the settings for the landline on their end, and you cannot access these settings yourself for some reason they weren't able to explain.

    The device is absolute junk, makes the old chorus router everyone hated look like the gold standard if network stability.
