[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 780128, member: 24098"] I'd avoid the range extenders. They can be very finicky to get up and running and aren't always necessary. A single wireless router should easily cover a typical 2 story home of 2000 square feet or more. If it's not, you're either running into interference or your router is poorly placed. Most of the time when I see this complaint, I find that the router is installed in a basement or inside of a cabinet. Placement is absolutely crucial. The router should be central to the home (as much as possible) and typically, the higher up it's sitting, the better. [/QUOTE]
