Wireless repeater

[Carmine]

Hi,

I am new here and I am looking for recommendations on a good and reliable repeater. I have a dlink router and I keep loosing signal when I am upstairs or even in another room of the house. Any ideas?

Having had issues with a number of repeaters I would probably look at something cheap that you can put DD-WRT on. Once DD-WRT is installed, you can setup the device as a Wifi repeater or even a bridge (which would then let you use the LAN ports on the new router as part of the wifi extension).

for easy set up have a look at a powerline adapter with wifi at one end to repeat upstairs. or cheap wifi repeater plugs, I purchased a cheap d link one from ebuyer last year for £15.

DD-WRT would be great but can be a bit of work to set up flashing the firmware.

Some routers can be flashed with DD-WRT through their web interfaces, following the same simple firmware update procedure.

ASUS RT-AC68U - main thing is to get something with a decent wifi coverage and range.

It might be you put this as your main unit and move the D-LINK to upstairs?

The WiFi technology has really moved forward in the last few iterations.
