Hi all,
I need some advice on extending my wi-fi network throughout my house. My situation is as follows:
My max ISP speed is 100 Mbps, with my modem and Netgear AC1900 router being in the basement. My connection speeds are hit/miss on the 2nd and 3rd levels of my house because of my router placement. I have a desktop PC hard-wired in the basement, which is why I have the modem and router down there for now.
Me and my family have numerous 2.4 GHz and 5GHz devices that we use all over the house, mostly on the 2nd and 3rd floors.
I can easily plug my desktop directly into the modem for connectivity, but my question is what is the best way to get my router onto the main floor without losing precious connection speed? MoCA? Powerline? Or would just using a wi-fi extender be a better option? I have an old Netgear WNDR3700 I could use as a repeater which could be a bonus.
Thanks in advance.
