Cool, that was the guide I missed but felt sure you had :)

I have a R7800 Nighthawk x4s (which is very nice thank you for your recommendation) but the wifi doesn't quite reach all the house (thick walls) and doesn't extend to the garden. I thought buying a wifi extender would be straight foward but was bewilldered by the range of options and things...
