Hi,
I am currently living in my parents' guesthouse that is separate from the main house by about 50 feet. They have Verizon Fios and the cable works great in the guest house TV. However, the wireless internet is very spotty and slow, even with a Net Gear range extender.
I am about the last thing from a techie imaginable. But I called Verizon and they originally suggested going from our current 50/25 speed to 75/50 speed. It hasn't made much difference. When I called Verizon, they said the only thing I can do is set up the guest house as an entirely separate account. I told them the cable piece of Fios works great in the guesthouse, but they said internet is different. They also said that there can only be one router per account, so getting a second router wouldn't make any sense.
Does anyone out there have any suggestions for me to be able to get internet in the guesthouse? Is there maybe a better extender than Net Gear? Please help if you can. Thanks so much!
