Is EX2800 WiFi Range Extender compatible with my NetGear Router model R6120
Is EX2800 WiFi Range Extender compatible with my NetGear Router model R6120.
Do you recommend a different product to get internet service in another room in my home? Only 1100 sq ft, and I get a very poor internet signal in my dining room, separated from my home office by a hallway. I am NOT computer savvy. Please reply as in Dummy 101! Thank you!

Will it work? sure
Will it make your wifi better? not enough info.
Reason I say that is a stsandard router should be able to cover 1100sq ft without issues.
so if you're having issues, then you need to determine why.
1. is it an intererence issue? try changing the wifi channels you're broadcasting on
2. is it a materials issue? what I mean is your home made of brick/concrete/adobe/plaster lathe/or some other materials that block wifi? If so, then adding an extender isn't always going to help. It potentially can but it isn't a for sure.
3. Is it something in the walls blocking wifi? metal hvac is great at blocking wifi. Sometimes moving a router laterally can help with signal propagation.

Try plugging your needs into the filters on the product pages:
But given the size of your property, Orbi is probably overkill.
