Thanks for the very good istructions on setting up an internet extender. My situation was similar to yours with the Spectrum router at one end of my home and my exercise room and Roku at the other in the basement. I purchased a Pix-Link Repeater/Extender and set the device up as an extender as an Access Point. The Pix-Link is connected with an ethernet cable in the Lan port to my Spectrum router. When setting up the Pix-Link access point I added a password. Works great both the Roku and Bowflex treadmill connected each showing excellent signal strength. Exercised this morning no freezing of the Bowflex monitor and the Ruko was flawless.

Thank you, you covered it well

@helpcloud what do you do if the website crashes when trying to connect it

I was confused how to factory reset, but you have to hold it for 10 seconds, but the light will flash and reset. Then you connect it to the new router or modem and then it worked for me. It is working great now. I had a hard time figuring this out and I thought I would share this. I moved and I barely used this at the other place but I definitely need it now. It works amazingly. My modem is in my living room and I have the extender in my hallway. I barely got signal before, but now I get full signal in my bedroom.

It works. Anyone explain how ISP dont have control over this of throttling? And how does this pick up my weak outdated wifi to super fast?

So I have Verizon DSL home internet (wall phone jack with a phone jack splitter with one cable going into my landline phone and the other cable going into my modem/router ) and we use the wifi (2 laptops, 2 tablets, 3 smartphones, 2 smart tvs) and only get 4.87 mbps download speed and 0.67 upload speed, would this extender increase my download and upload speeds? Or should I just change internet providers? (I am considering Xfinity since it's cable, fiber optics isn't available in my area)

Would this work to help boost signal to something like the Arlo wireless cameras? Have one camera out by my garage that struggles to keep a solid signal.

If the Camera's wifi is connected to the extender, yes. It should help, just make sure the extender has a solid connection to the Original wifi network.

For hotels that do not have ethernet ports, can this also be used for a hard wire setup?

It is possible, although the speed will depend on where the Wifi source is. Since the extender has to grab the wifi signal then send it through the Ethernet port, if the wifi strength is unstable the Ethernet port will be as well. Let me know if that makes sense!

Windows 10 has a Hotspot feature. You might have that on? From a CMD prompt (Windows Key + R and enter CMD and press enter) enter: netsh wlan show all. If you see HOSTED NETWORK enable and data then this is sharing your SSID. Otherwise, another router nearby is using the SAME SSID. If you have the router on and see 2, well, there is another one.

Looks like this TP-Link AC1200 WiFi Range Extender RE300 does the whole house seamless connection thing for about fifty bucks.

Thanks for this! This was actually such a ball ache, the main problem I found was that it was struggling to find my IP Address while connecting. This weirdly worked with I stopped trying to connect to the 2.4 and connected to the 5GHz. I'm not sure why that worked but whatever right. It also took a strangely long time to connect, will edit this in a few mins while I put it where I want, see if that ends up working. EDIT: It does seem to work, IT IS a bit sketchy so I'm hoping it irons out a bit but I managed to connect a PC up stairs (router down stairs) with an ethernet connection, so ethernet cable from Netgear extender to PC.
