Wireless Extender for AX1800
I have a Nighthawk AX1800 router. I am looking for a signal extender that uses household electrical wiring similar to what Xfinity pods are/do. It is important that I try to keep the item profile very low.
Xfinity pods are small, plug into an electrical outlet versus an extender that has to sit on a shelf. Is there a Netgear product available for my router? If not, is there a third party that will work with my router?
A couple things.
1. AX1800 is a speed, not a model.
2. Not all wifi extenders need to sit on a shelf. Netgear does make plug in versions from base model devices like the EX2800, to fancier devices like the EX6400 or the triband EX7500. to even AX extenders like the EAX12, EAX15.
I'd recommend taking a look a picking ones that suite your needs/performance/price.

I screwed up my solution. It should have gone to "plemans". I am sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused. Can it be rectified?
