extender for wndr330 vs verizon extender vs Cox Cable extender
Please be patient with my question as I am trying to understand ..on my ipad I sometimes loose connection to the wifi and if several guests are connecting their Iphones to my wifi they too experience...
So I bought a plug in Netgear extender and have not dropped at all..so maybe my WNDR330 is ok. Can you tell me what the advantage would be to get a more modern (and which one please) Netgear Modem?

Now I have an iphone 7 that gets only 1-2 bars and Verizon want me to buy a signal extender to boost my wifi signal that they say will allow the 4g LTE to be better for phone calls.
I am thinking they mean this: http://s7.vzw.com/is/content/VerizonWireless/Devices/Samsung/4glte-network-ext/samsung-4g-lte-network-extender-sls-UG.pdf
That basically puts a small cell tower in your house (extending LTE). It connects to your home router via ethernet, and sends your cell phone traffic over your home internet connection. It has nothing to do with wifi.
Thank You..So if I am dropping wifi on the phone and ipad do I need a stronger/better router or an extender for the router? My house is only 40 feet long ranch but we do have thick walls. If so, what model would you reco.

Getting a new modem or router?
If it's a router, you'll most likely take advantage of the latest speed advertised for as long as you match it with the compatible wireless adapter.
