How do WiFi extenders work?

They do work but it is not quite plug it in and forget it like people expect. I tried a couple random extenders first and they technically connected but performance was messy with drops and slowdowns. I ended up using the TP Link BE550 Mesh system and it was a lot more predictable. You still need to

Megvalósítható ez a wifi mesh rendszer a lakásban?

Ne a Deco-t vedd, hanem easymesh kompatibilis cuccot. Nekem pl lent volt egy BE550, fent pedig egy be230, és LAN volt a bachhaul. tökéletesen működött a váltás észrevétlenül, és ha LAN-on megy a backhaul akkor sokkal jobb wifi sebességeid lesznek. easymesh egyébként wifi szabvány, szóval gyártófügge

Which router should I buy? Or any better suggestions

Same, it’s listed as BE9300 (Archer BE550) on Amazon. It works great for me, zero issues in having it for a year. Plenty of options to customize and signal strength is great. I already had a WiFi 6 TP-Link router and I upgraded my main unit and kept the old one to use in the garage as a mesh WiFi no

City Fibre Router suggestions?

I've got the BE550, no issues with it whatsoever. Currently running it with Nufibre and on 2.3Gbps symmetrical. Ethernet speed tests max that out without a hitch and WiFi 7 can hit around 1.5Gbps down, 2Gbps up. Running a NAS off of one port, a dedicated torrent PC off of another and a home mesh kit

G5AR gateway, without ethernet vs with ethernet. should i get a router?

Yes, get a router connect it to Ethernet and move it where you have the best wifi signal while leaving the gateway where you have the best cell signal. Everyone has been complaining about wifi disconnects so you will kill two birds with one stone. Fyi: I am using the g5ar connected to a be550 with a

Trouble with new BE550

Yup, similar issue with my BE550. Smart Connect isn't as smart as it should be! :D When I previously had Smart Connect enabled, my Pixel 9 when at long distance, would not drop down from 6GHz or 5Ghz to 2.4GHz automatically. Tether app would indicate that my Pixel 9 had a weak signal on 6Ghz or 5GHz
