Range Extender - Highest Spec now?

[TechVodoo]

Just curious if anyone knows which range extender has the highest spec now... I think I saw somewhere it is about AC2600?

Yes, I think it looks quite big too... not sure how it really look though but seems like its a good option when there are a lot of corners in the house and you cant use powerline to extend coverage...

When you guys say highest spec, do you guys mean just speed?

Linksys now has a MU-MIMO range extender, the RE7000. But yeah it's an AC1900, so not as fast as AC2600.

Hey guys. I got some question about Range Extender.

1. I have a AC88U in the living room, usually i get strong wifi signal here. But once i move to my room it drops to like 1-2 bar only.
2. I want to improve the wifi in my room, so do i just buy a range extender ?
3. Does it have to be the same brand as my router in the living room ? - Asus
4. Do i have to set up another wifi connection? or it will auto connect to the strongest signal , either the router in the living room or the range extender in the bed room.

If you have data points ( lan cabling network ), installing access point is preferred.

Else you can only fall back on Range Extender, HomePlugs or Wi-Fi Mesh.

You can set the same name ( SSID ) for convenience. But on the other hand you won't know which signal ( AC88U or Range Extender ) is the culprit when you have Wi-Fi issues. I would recommend having seperate SSIDs.

Xonix, i have been doing some research since u last reply my message.
I thinking of using asus roaming assist.
I had my ac88 in the living room and another asus cheapo router in the bedroom in AP mode. Then i use roam assist to switch over seamlessly. Wat u think?
