Firstly Hello everyone, and big thank beforehand for any up and coming help.
A big hello from Scotland.
I live in Scotland and my WyFY is provided by SSE, on a package.
Now last week I was having problems getting my LG Oled Tv to mirror my MacBook Air through Air play2. Funny enough my Iphone 7 the mirroring was perfect , but from mac all out of sync.
After few hours with apple tech we worked it out that my Router was not sending a strong enough signal. ( All in same room, and little distance, and no walls in between ). We sussed this by feeding the Wyfy signal from my phone data to mac , then airplay from Mac to LG Tv and all was perfect.
So basically I need upgrade my Router, hopefully one with an antenna on top.
Now Im not sure If my current router, is also joined with a combined Modem, or if the Modem is separate. I am waiting for SSE my provider to let me know if my Modem is separate or joined . ( Is their any easy way to find out myself ) ( I am NOT a tec wizard, so treat me like a dummy )
Now my main Question. If I upgrade with new Router. Is it just as simple as unplugging the old one, and plug in the new one ? Do I need change Passwords on TV and other items ? Or is my WYFI a set password ?
What Router do you recoment without spending to much ?
