I'm assisting a friend with setting up internet at their new location, which consists of two separate buildings—mother and daughter—in one area. To ensure strong signal coverage and possible cable access, using a Wi-Fi extender seems like the best option. Since this is my first time using them, I'm unsure about the best brand and model to choose. The distance between the buildings is only about 10 meters, so installing just one line should suffice given the fixed wireless NBN system available in Australia.

Consider two options: power line extenders and duplication devices. Power line extension offers speed and efficiency but needs both your device and router on the same electrical circuit. Generally, if your gadget is on another floor, they’ll likely be on separate circuits. These work by sending a 2.4 or 5.8 GHz signal across the power line to a receiver, which operates at high frequency and won’t disrupt regular electricity flow. For one, you’ll need a master and a slave unit (often sold together) https://www.techadvisor.co.uk/test-centr...8-3490638/ Duplication extenders function but are slower. They include both a receiver and transmitter, acting as a network node; when you send a request, it passes through the extender before reaching the router. For these, you’ll require a single unit https://www.techradar.com/news/the-best-wi-fi-extenders Have a pleasant daySmile
