WiFi Extender
I live in a three story house and I am trying to get full coverage. What WiFi extender can be used with a Nighthawk AX12. The unit is overkill for my internet but I could not resist the price.
The interior walls are cinder block? Or just the exterior.
the RAX120 is a pretty rock solid router. If you can centrally locate it, it should cover 3000sqft without much issues.
Do you have ethernet ran throughout the home? if so, you could connect the Pace gateway in router mode, connect that to the switch, and then connect the RAX centrally located in AP mode.
Thank you for your response. The Model is a RAX120-100NAS. The square footage is approximately 3000 sq. ft. The building material is a combination of cinder block, sheetrock, wooden studs and flooring. The RAX120 is located in the basement under the stairwell next to the AT&T Pace Modem. A Netgear GS116 is used for the ethernet connections. The equipment is located in the basement because the power supply is connected to the generator backup system. The phone lines also connected to a distribution center there.
