Mysterious BT Wi-Fi discs. (7 posts / 537 views)

Having Googled an issue with all of the 3 Wi-Fi discs throughout my house I couldn't find any answer as it wasn't listed.

The 3 discs in question each have a flashing red light which means that connection has been lost and under trouble shooting one is advised to contact BT.

We've never really had stable connection and often when watching tv in bed my television picture would go off. A trip to the top of the stairs surely enough would reveal a flashing red light.

Now I have all 3 discs through the house flashing red (3 days now) and yet I've the best Wi-Fi connection ever since they were installed a couple of years ago.

I'll have to contact BT at some point (or should I)? as they may never have even come across this particular issue.

It's a weird one and if anyone knows the answer then please feel free to let me know.

Thanks.

Without wanting to open up old wounds...

Is there any building work going on nearby? When a new housing development was built near mine recently I had repeated trouble with Internet which they said was down to the builders having damaged underground cables

No mate, none at all.

I also googled to see if there were issues in my area but there's none noted at all.

Edit - ps it's not giving trouble as such it's just that they are unconnected and yet at the same time time acting like they're connected as the connection is the best they've ever been. It's an odd one.

WiFi to all TVs still running like a dream and yet all 3 disks in the house remain flashing red.

It's another story but in short one of my daughters has seen 2 ghosts in this house so i guess the house is certainly unusual.

One of my daughters just said to me that she has never known her tv to be so good. She said that before it would keep spinning around and not get a channel and would end up turning it off. Now not only does she get to watch her tv without buffering at all but can use her I pad too without disruption.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
