How to Increase iPad mobile wifi to xfinity
I am trying to figure out how I can get my iPad & or iPhone to connect on the xfinity wifi better when I am mobile. I can pick up the wifi but it is weak. Most times I am just on the outside range ...

Not really for the house. I am trying to find something that will work in my truck so when I am mobile I can pick up the xfinity wifi better. Not sure if I posted this in the right spot but didn’t really see any other options.

AH, so long haul truck?
Please explain more and maybe we can advise you some.
Do you have a mobile wifi router?
Will need some specifics...

No I do not. Just using wifi built into iPhone and iPad, to pickup the local internet hotspots. Both do have cell service that uses data which I try to avoid since it gets used a lot. I don’t want to have and get a added hotspot or air card since I already pay enough on the plans.

Well, the EX extenders are designed to connect to main host wifi routers, like at home so you can get wifi coverage at remote locations in the home. They are not designed for extending hot spots and such from other locations.
