Need recommendation - extender
I posted the other day about a problem getting my extender (EX3700) hooked up and plemans was kind enough to help me. This is kind of a continuation but not, if that makes sense. It's looking li...
I was hoping that wouldn't be the answer....so you really think an extender that says they cover 2500 ft (or more) wouldn't be much better than the 1000 ft. one I have? Darn. I'm so mad that it worked fine using just our router and now no such luck. I'd like to move the router back in the same vicinity that it was in but then all my other "stuff" would suffer.
I will look at directional extenders and see what they entail. And I did consider burying a wire, in the long run that would work the best but that's a lot of wire, ha ha. I'm not sure what a point to point system is but will google it.
I guess I'll return this extender as it's doing me no good, so bummed. I am going to try and see if maybe I can find a better camera that may pick it up but hard to tell, many don't specify how far their wifi range is.
before returning the extender, try setting it up using fastlane.
Have the extender use 5ghz for router----extender communication and the 2.4ghz for the extender----camera connection
Sorry but what is fastlane?
Same issue as the other day when I posted. I'm connected on my desktop to the extender yet can't log in to mywifi...I even tried it on my phone. Nothing. Says I'm not connected. So frustrating. I can see it thru the genie. But, my extender isn't on the list of devices in the article....would it be worth me getting one of them instead and trying?
