Outdoor extender? MK63-100NAS

Hi all I'm all of a sudden having an issue with outdoor smart devices not staying connected to my network.  Are there any extenders that would solve this problem and work with my router MK63-100NAS? 

 

thanks in advance

        You can also post there as well as that is the more appropriate forum for your model product. 

         

        Thank you.

    It depends on what you want to achieve. There is one outdoor wireless access point that you aren't likely to come across in the Nighthawk Mesh community that you were, for some unfathomable reason, directed to.

     

    The RBS50Y (v1 or v2) Orbi Outdoor Satellite is, as the name suggests, actually billed as an Orbi device, but it also has an AP mode that will work with other routers.

     

    Whether or not it will work as genuine Mesh with the MK63 is a different question. But that may not matter in your circumstances.

     

    Be warned, it is not cheap.
