Hi all,

I'm trying to improve the wifi range in my unit. Did some google search on extenders, repeaters, powerlines... then i saw this post here on wifi boosters (by virus2977) that got me really interested.

Repeaters/extenders to my understanding can potentially half the performance of the bandwidth. Powerlines need to plug into wall sockets(alot of footprint).
Then in this case, wouldn't a booster be better? Since my unit is less then 100sqm and this is just an extra small unit beside the router. What's the pros and cons?

networknoob here. Appreciate some advise. :)

I have a router downstair, and wifi extender upstair. How to know or make sure that the extenders get their source signal direct from router instead of each other?
Thanks

bringing this up. Any dual wifi extender to recommend? Budget around $60?


If you just want a normal dual wifi extender, wait for sitex, at comex recently , linksys re6700 is selling for 49 only.

But it will be good to get one come with MU-MIMO.
