Simple Extender for Virgin Super Hub (VMDG480)

Hi,

 

I have a small house with the Virgin Super Hub (VMDG480) positions at the front of the ground floor and am not gett great signal at the back bedroom on the 1st floor.

Can anyone point me toward an extender for the UK? It's kind of confusing with all the products etc

 

Thanks

Hi TrevNet,

 

If the back bedroom is still within the same electrical circuit as your front of the ground floor, then you may consider the NETGEAR Powerline:

You can also run a comparison between the WiFi Range Extenders to see which one fits your requirements:

Thanks Nhann,

 

I talk to my electrician (unless there is any easy way to tell?). If it's not on the same circut, are there any other options?

 

Thanks again.

You're welcome.
If it's not on the same circuit, then you can also consider the WiFi Range Extender products mentioned above (does not require same circuit).
