Wi-Fi Range Extender - TP-Link AC750

Hi all, I've recently signed up to the FTTB plan, while internet is great in the living room most of the time, I find that the signal is very weak in the study and bedroom, gets worse during evening time (around 7pm to 9pm). While the speed of the internet drops a bit during the same time in the living room where the rounter is being placed, it is still rather stable, and can host video conference with no issues.
 
The modem I have from TPG is the TP-Link VX420-G2v AX5400 Wi-fi 6 Modem Router With VoIP. I'm thinking if perhaps by purchasing a Wi-FI range extender, the signal in the study/bedroom would be better?
 
I'm looking at the "Wi-Fi Range Extender - TP-Link AC750", would that work? Or if there are any other suggestions please? Many thanks.

Hi @ititanic,

 

You have the option to use any 3rd party Wi-Fi extender. As the issue mostly wireless lets try to improve the Wi-Fi connection before we consider looking a Wi-Fi extender.

 

Could you try to check the articles below and see if there will be an improvement.

 

• Troubleshooting a Slow Internet Connection

• Easy Steps to Improve Wi-Fi Connection In Your Home

• Wireless Channel on your modem - what is it and why should I change it

 

Let us know how it will go.
