Without a Wi-Fi extender, be ready to spend a night stapling a 100ft of ethernet cable along your walls and under carpets like a chump.īefore rushing out to buy a fancy new 6GHz Wi-Fi extender, check your device's capabilities first.
Of course, you could get one of the best gaming routers (opens in new tab) and see how far you can realistically run an ethernet cable through your home without becoming a tripping hazard.
You can’t expect WiFi to be the permanent solution to connect every device in the home, every device which can be physically wired with Ethernet cable must be and then WiFi is only used for the devices which are aren’t capable such as mobile phones and tablets.A bad Wi-Fi signal will affect your download speeds and make online gaming impossible, but a Wi-Fi range extender will fill that gap, especially if you're trying to get Wi-Fi in your backyard or the garage. This means using a mesh system with a hardwired backhaul between the devices so that the construction of the home doesn’t interfere with the other access points and you’re not creating a congested radio spectrum. The solution is to install multiple access points which communicate with each other and will create a flawless transition between access points while moving through the house.
It’s not a permanent solution and it’s frustrating, the solution is to get the two people speaking the same language and remove the background noise so they can hear each other better.Īdding another WiFi access point (extender) means that you’ve added more congestion to the radio spectrum by adding two more WiFi networks and you’ve instantly cut the transmission speed of everything connected to the device by 50%. The easiest way to explain this is that it’s like you’re always having a detailed in depth conversation with an individual who speaks another language so must use an interpreter (WiFi extender). WiFi “extenders” are garbage because of the way they work, they are simply another access point and the device must receive the WiFi and then retransmit that to the original access point.
