I’m just starting with PCs. I’m using my home Wi-Fi to connect my PC, but it’s slow and has high lag. I’ve heard about gaming routers and thought about using one. Should I get a dedicated gaming router or just extend the existing Wi-Fi signal? Also, I didn’t mention that the main Wi-Fi router is located far from my PC. Edited July 23, 2020 by HowlingStein

I'm using a wireless router of [make and model]. The PC's wireless adapter is [make and model]. There are [number] walls or floors separating the PC from the router. The distance is approximately [distance in feet/inches]. Other devices are connected as well. I've installed and started WiFi Analyzer from the PC. Please share screenshots of the 'Networks' section (MAC addresses hidden) and the 'Analyze' pages for both 2.4GHz and 5GHz, with your SSID highlighted.
