Are these any use? Daughter in a shared house at Uni. The two upstairs rooms have poor wifi connection and poor access via Data allowance. Is it worth going down a booster route? I.e. plug in to socket gizmo.
Yep helped me massively during lockdown at my previous job WFH. absolute nightmare working in the kitchen downstairs from the router, especially with the Xbox servers with the little one. called Sky and for a one off payment of £10.00 the booster was plugged in downstairs and made the world of difference. Defo worth it for me.
too many factors to say whether one will be any good or not. sometimes they work well, some times they're pointless. only way you're gonna know is by trying one. would personally stick to amazon, then at least you can return with no grief if it's no good. I've got a wifi access point, but they're more involved than extenders.
We've got three in our Dodworth house and they work very well with no problems. However I'm currently in Germany where we have one repeater. It's very unreliable, and sometimes our internet connection just sudde
I recently posted on the same subject and purchased a tp-link range extender wifi boost, works really well, easy to set up and cost less than 40 quid.
I have a sky mini box in the bedroom and I'm constantly having to reset it and reconnect it to the network. Would a booster negate the need to do this?
My Fiancés parents use them at their place as they were getting no signal at all in their kitchen extension and they worked really well. They only got some cheap ones from Amazon I think and they were fine for what they needed and were simple to set up. The better option are the powerline adapter things for getting the best speeds, but if it is just to boost it a bit so your daughter can do her uni work and watch some Netflix etc. then the WiFi boosters will be a good option for sure.
I bought one from Amazon only live in a small 2 bed bungalow been having trouble with connection to ring doorbell didn't make any difference any advice would be appreciated
