Hello I hope this is a good place to ask if not can you point me where I need to go lol. Also im knew to a lot of this and trying to learn so bare with me if i say something dumb. Ive been doing hours of research but I figured I come to a wider source for opinions or answers. I’m currently have xfinity gigabit wifi but I’m struggling to get 50 -100Mbps in some places of my house. It’s a very old house 100+ years and it isn’t completely modernized yet but my wife and I are trying. So my questions are, are there any wifi extenders you would recommend? Or a different item you would recommend. I had xfinity over this week to replace my gateway they provide as it I was against a wall on the farthest most part of my house. They also replaced the gateway with there most updated version. Were trying to add a security system and some smart stuff around the house is why I’m asking.
First: Get that piece of shit gateway out of your house and get an actual legit Wi-Fi system. Second: Get a mesh Wi-Fi system! Third: Get a separate modem. This is optional, but getting a mesh Wi-Fi system is not unless you want to have to constantly worry about having to reboot your router. If you really want to stay with Xfinity products, look at their XFy pods.
