Cambio range extender
Attualmente ho questo modello di range extender: WN2500RP. Casa a tre piani con muri spessi e scale.Modem router al primo, il range extender netgear al secondo e un piccolo ranger extender da presa ...
Thanks for the info.Could I have any benefits though?
You potentially could see significant improvments. The EX8000 has a 1733mbps backhaul connection to the primary router (if the router supports it). So potentially it could be much faster. It also doesn't take the 50% speed hit that standard extenders take because it has a dedicated backhaul from router----extender.
But I can't say 100% that you'd see them because each home is different. And 5ghz doesn't penetrate as far or through as much materials as 2.4ghz.
Thanks again. One question: would you make the switch?
If you had an electronics store with a good return policy, its worth trying. If it doesn't help, you could return it.
Or checking out an orbi triband system (not dual band). Then you could have the router on the primary floor, a satellite on the 2nd, and a satellite on the 3rd.
In some area's amazon has been selling renewed triband systems pretty cheap.
