    Need help with home networking

    There was a tv there already so I knew it worked. I moved it and made my extender a AP and so far it is working better than have the extender not as a AP. What else would you recommend to do? Should I get a better AP ?

    1- What simple cable checker do you recommend? I could change the router location but the only other spot I would really put it in is where the ps4 is, would have to get a splitter to have a coaxial connected to the tv receiver. I also have to deal with my parents not wanting me moving things...
