Wifi extenders
Can someone help me out. Can anyone refer me to what kind of wifi extender I should be looking for. Sorry. Not very computer literate much less wifi. I was looking at the eero mesh wifi router on A...
Most replies are recommending a mesh network addon rather than a Wi-Fi extender.
With an extender, you almost always must use a different SSID than the Gateway. If you have more than one extender, then as you move around the house you have to manually connect to the SSID in that part of the house.
With a mesh network, moving around the house allows your device to seamlessly connect to the strongest signal.
