Which extender can i use with my Netgear Nighthawk D7000
Good afternoon all,
i have a nighthawk D7000 and want to add either extenders or mesh, if so what would you recommend. previous experience appreciated
regards
Carl
Can you tell us a bit more about the space you are trying to cover with WiFi now, the router location, and where the dead spots are?
- So, the netgear nighthawk is in the lounge and I get dead spot on the ground floor and first floor away, areas which are not in the same vercinity as the router. I have bought a netgear nighthawk x45 range extender? But it doesn’t really seem to be cutting the mustard ?

You do need to place the extender in an area where you have a solid connection to the router (generally somewhere between the router and the dead spot you are wanting to cover).
- Do I need to buy a couple more extenders and dot them around the house?
