WIFI extension options for Nighthawk M2 router.

Question

We live in rural Queensland and use a&nbsp;Netgear Nighthawk M2 router for WIFI access&nbsp;&nbsp;We get poor cover coverage across the house and we would like to improve this?&nbsp;We are considering two options:-&nbsp;(1) Firstly, get an and plug it into the ethernet plug in the modem, or&nbsp;(2) Buy a&nbsp;Nighthawk MK63 Mesh system&nbsp;&nbsp;Any&nbsp;guidance would be&nbsp;appreciated&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

I'd would get a router or mesh system and connect to it.&nbsp;
The reason why is the why on hotspots/cell spots is limiting in how far the wifi can broadcast. Its part of its broadcast regulation since they're designed to travel.&nbsp;
If you get a router/mesh system, it doesn't have that restriction. Plus they tend to have more cpu/processing power and be more capable.&nbsp;

Who you suggest buying either a Orbi or Google nest system?

plemans · Answer

either. I haven't used any of the google products but I have the orbi's so that's all I can attest to.&nbsp;
Dongknows has done some really good reviews on mesh systems and its worth taking a look at his site.&nbsp;
