Improve Wifi signal through entire house

signal is very strong and very convenient to have a satellite to connect with some wired devices like Philips hue bridge

That meant that in most cases when I headed away from one tower, I was heading to towards another in my house, which means more consistent signal strength and less interference from my neighbors wifi (an issue that I had mentioned previously).

I even get a good signal in my back and front yard beyond the advertised range of the router

Some gave me a good signal on the main floor but left me with two networks to switch between.

My neighbor across the street says my signal is stronger in his house than his own network!

In my 1546 sq' house the coverage hit the main spots I'd be using wireless, but there were also dead spots and weak signals.

and they all have a strong WIFI signal

Here's the story:I bought this for a three floor house with old "chicken-wire" walls in the hope it could provide a better, stronger signal, more stable network on every floor

While it may extend your range and speed of wifi, it consistently kept dropping the signal, providing such unreliable, continuous wireless signal, I had to just take the L and unplug, going back to my ISP's proprietary wireless modem

I have added extenders to get adequate coverage but it would drop often and the signal was never great

I'm happy to say that the signal is strong all over the house and we are enjoying uninterrupted connection.

Kept loosing signal.

In fact we had to walk over a hundred yards from the house to lose signal altogether.

Strong signal throughout both units
