WiFi Extender

‎05-20-2023 04:29 AM

Do you have a recommendation for a WiFi extender?

 

We just changed carriers and where it is now doesn't reach where I need it. It's so tiring trying to do anything with it.

Thank you.

You write where it is now, what is it?  The router?  Why would changing carriers have anything to do with the modem or router location?

Can you move the router? if the cord isn't long enough, call the company and ask them to send you a longer cord.

Consider buying a new (mesh or long-range) router if the one you have is old (5yo is old). If it's not old then look at the brand TP Link for an extender.

 

" An old, outdated router can slow down your Wi-Fi, disrupt your connections, and leave your network vulnerable to security risks." I found that on google and it's true.
