extender

Just got Rapture GT-AX11000, old router is wifi 5 AC model. Router must stay in a specific room, which makes it awkward for other rooms. My goal is to achieve the highest speeds possible with any method of extending I decide to use. My question is, if I used my old router as an extender what...

Hi All, ASUS makes a wireless extender (Model: RP-AC55) that supports AiMesh. Understood that Merlin's firmware does NOT support this model. Question: If I use this extender with its latest stock Asus firmware, will it work with my AC86U router running Merlin Firmware 384.19? I couldn't...

For simplicity's sake, neglecting the range concerns for now. There is a AC750 source router with one 5Ghz spatial streams, meaning 433Mbits top speed. Now, normal people would buy an AC750 repeater and they are sure to have their speed halved. There just isn't enough bandwidth. 1. If I buy any...

I want to replace the last of the ancient technology that I have in my network - WRT54GL with DD-WRT used as a wireless extender. It looks like the RT-AC66U B1 (AC1750) can be used for this. I also want to keep the same SSID as I've done with other networks. The download manual is out of date...

We have Virgin media for broadband but their superhub 2ac router kept dropping the wifi signal (annoying with Nest cameras) and I would have to reboot it every few months.

Hi, I've got a R7800 which is working perfectly. However, I now have to move it to the other end of the house so the far end will lose out. I have recently seen that Netgear advertise their extenders as mesh network devices working with your existing router. Is that really the case? I have...
