Now that I and many of you are trapped at home and cuddled up with either your motorcycle, honey or laptops, I am finding that what used to be pretty good wi fi in our home is gradually deteriorated to the point that I have to wander about the house to sometimes get a page to finish loading. Sometimes I have to find a spot next to the router to get things to load. This has been slowly happening for a few months not just since the virus pandemic.
It is so annoying that I am considering getting a wi fi extender, one of those plug in gizmos that boosts the signal a bit and give better coverage and ups download speed.
I look on the web and they seem to come in many flavors, prices and abilities. Was wondering if any of you have had experience with them. Snake oil, internet con job to BS you or do they actually work?
Any particular features to look for, any particular brands that have performed as expected or should I just invest in a comfy chair next to the router.....which only sorta works!
