If you\u2019re prone to running around the house during a meeting in an attempt to escape dodgy Wi-Fi, it could be time for an internet upgrade. Wi-Fi extenders help expand and strengthen your Wi-Fi signal so you can find a solid connection in those hard-to-reach spots of the house. They help boost the signal provided by your router, to banish Wi-Fi dead zones, so they\u2019re a quick and easy fix that helps keep connection fury at bay.<\/p>\n
There are a range of price points, so you can choose to spend more on flashier, super-speedy and multi-functional devices or there are plenty of budget-friendly plug-in picks too. How far you want your Wi-Fi to reach could depend on the size of your house, and thickness of your walls.<\/p>\n
So whether you want to read an article outside, watch a movie in your loft, or prevent children and pets from interrupting an important work call, we\u2019ve got you covered with our list of the best Wi-Fi extenders.<\/p>\n
Best wifi extenders for 2022<\/h2>\n
TP-Link<\/span> AC750\u00a0<\/span>dual band range extender<\/span><\/h3>\n
This TP-Link Wi-Fi extender plugs into a socket. It\u2019s a straightforward and affordable option that has an Ethernet port too. It\u2019s easy to set up, just connect the device to your router, and find a suitable plug-in spot. There\u2019s a useful indicator light which helps you select the best location for your Wi-Fi extender, so you can use that as a guide.<\/p>\n
The router and Wi-Fi extender together should help your connection extend to 300 square metres, so everyone in the house can work where they fancy.<\/p>\n
As well as improving your working day, it\u2019s a solid choice for avid video gamers, and film enthusiasts looking for a seamless HD video stream.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s at the lower end of the price scale, and it\u2019s not the speediest pick on our list \u2013 offering dual band speeds of up to 750Mbps \u2013 but it still lets you connect to 32 devices.<\/p>\n
