it gets like 150 which is acceptable

place as centrally as you can, otherwise you're SOL.

why not ethernet

assuming latency isn't an issue would an extender help all of the devices with shitty antennas and shit that's in the attic?

if you don't care about latency, in theory yes.

it's mostly media delivery shit that's a problem

it would help your crappy devices

ok

but

you have to make sure the devices your bridging with actually can service a signal

and not have the same problem your laptops are having

i might need to give some more context

in the past we had 30 down and 5 up, and i used an n600 and n300, the n300 in repeater mode to blanket the upstairs

maybe but i don't think so

everyone always got 30

now i've switched to 200 down 10 up

n600 --- buffalo AP?

no, asus n600

oh

shitty consumer grade stuff

yeah you know you can do better with off-lease enterprise stuff

anyway

off topic

so it was good and it's bad now

basically just wanted to make sure an extender wouldn't fuck my shit up

well

thing is

even though the only thing that changed was your WAN uplink?

no

router changed too

so

fuck im so bad at explaining

use your old router in bridging mode in the same spot

maybe I'm retarded who knows

that's actually what i'm doing

and it's not working

wew

so i think i need to get an ac1200 extender afaik

that makes no sense though

just wanted to sanity check and you seem as stumped as i am so i think it's worth a shot

if it works before it should work now. the extender makes no sense.
