| 1433834 | 2017-04-06 02:26:00 | I like that idea. Better find out if they're on the same power circuit +1 for powerline . However if the mains cabling is iffy (or too noisey), that wont work reliably either . Wont know till you try with this sort of thing , most of the time these do work . Make sure its plugged direct into the socket, not via a powerfilter multibox . wifi "boosters" often dont work . Gave up on those years ago. :badpc: Rule of thumb : each wall and floor wifi goes through halfs the power (sort of) |

| 1433835 | 2017-04-06 05:46:00 | The brand new Ubiquiti UniFi Mesh APs could be an option too, as they are able to use 5GHz for backhaul, and 2.4GHz for 'local' access. www.gowifi.co.nz Big fan of the Ubiquiti kit. Have got a UAP-AC-LR recently myself to replace my Archer C7 running Gargoyle (OpenWRT) and the range is *superb*!! Can reach my WiFi 2 houses down the road even :D |

| 1433836 | 2017-04-06 13:00:00 | So where I'm staying, the WIFI connection doesn't quite reach to my room. I'm basically upstairs of the router, and 15 metres along a corridor. I've taken a quick look at wifi boosters, but have no real idea if any of them would work. Does anyone have any experiences with this sort of thing? Which router is being used? and what band? 2.4 ? 5ghz? more info? |
