Networking wizards - help
#1
So recently got a BT smart hub installed and working.

There are 3 access points for the router/hub in the house - 2 in the lounge, one in the master bedroom.

The office has no network point - so, i got these TP link 600mbs to get internet in the office on my desktop/gaming pc. First 'plug' is in the same extension block as the router, the second (receiver) is in the mains wall plug in the office.

It connects fine...most of the time but occasionally get this when loading up a web browser on the desktop:

The Hub is working but isn't connected to the internet - this takes about two minutes
Connect a device to your Hub using a cable or wi-fi. Open a web browser and follow the on-screen help wizard to get connected

Fine, give it time, it reconnects the router to the internet and away we go BUT what it's not letting me do is connect to my games - all MMO games flag up saying 'check internet connection. Would i need to add port exceptions for the games? Or would there be an underlying issue with the way the computer is connect to the router?


Any help would be great.
