I have a friend who lives in a large, very old home (late 1800's) and he had commercial Xfinity internet installed for his home's B&B. Unfortunately, the signal is abysmal and he can only get about 20-25' away from the router before the signal drops to 1 or 2 bars. We've tried wireless range extenders (pathetic). Could we run an ethernet cable from the router, to the basement and up into the living room/dining room area and connect a repeater/extender/WAP? I'm not super tech savvy in this area, but know my way around a desktop PC somewhat. What would be the best device to wire up to the router? Something that wouldn't be too difficult to configure and maintain. BTW, the walls are pretty thick in the house.
We had a tech company come out and wanted to put two mesh routers deeper in the house and wanted almost $k.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
