@89th said in WiFI range extender?:
Can you just reposition the main WiFi router?
Repositioning the router is an option. But, I used to have it in the master main bedroom. But connectivity into the living room, whichis right below Bedroom 1 in the floorpan was a problem. It might be because we have metal studs in the walls, and it was a diagonal line to the living room. Moving the router to Bedroom 1 solved that. Exactly. It's really just for casual web browsing when I'm in bed.
I assume George's main usage of the WiFi is not Ego shooters, or playing Minecraft, or watching uncompressed 4K movies, so bad latency or bandwidth may not be an issue and a range extender works well enough.
Yup, simple web browsing and stuff when I'm in bed. If I need serious bandwidth, I'll go to bedroom 1, where that German pr0n streams beautifully.
