Hi, looking for recommendations for a wifi extender that would be compatible with the Vrigin Media supplied VMDG480 please?

    Most of them should be "compatible". You can try setting them up using wps and if it doesn't work, just use the installation assistant. Some device makers code wps different which is why netgear also has an installation assistant. 

     

    The reason I say most is some ISP's lock down their routers to only use their extenders (if they sell them). I couldn't find that that model did but thats the reason i say most.
