Extender?

Is there a recommended Wi-Fi extender to use with 5G home broadband routers? I get good download speeds in the room where the router is situated, but very poor in the rest of our home. The Devolo extender that I previously used with phone line broadband will not work with this system, so hopefully, other users may be able to help.

Hello, Jax.

Wireless extenders should generally work as long as they are using the standard set of WiFi certified features, and not something proprietary to a specific brand. 

There's a lot of examples I've seen where people have used a mesh system with our router, and that might be something worth considering. 

Hopefully some others here on the Community will be happy to share which devices they've had success with so that you don't need to be guessing on compatibility.

Pete.

Hey @Jax,

Glad to hear this is sorted. Did you end up going with a particular extender, or how did you solve this? Just curious, and it may help other community members down the line. 🙂

Thanks,
Jonathan

Hi, What are your requirements (gaming, video streaming, Alexa)? How many rooms & floors? Your budget?

Do you require only wi-fi connections or do devices need to be connected via ethernet?

What download speed are you getting?

Which Three router do you have?
