I am currently using a Netgear Nighthawk R6700 and a Netgear AC750 extender (hardwired) for my home network. I have over 30 devices connecting simultaneously (smart switches, outlets, bulbs, alexas, irrigation controls, alarm hub, computers, phones, tvs etc). The house is two 2 stories and about 2000 sq ft. There is a central stone/brick chimney and most of the walls are sheetrocked + 1/2" decorative wood covering.
I think the device traffic and structural impediments of the houes are giving me a pretty weak wifi signal. Also, devices don't do a great job switching from extender to main router network if I am moving about the house. Any recommendations on a new network configuration or new equipment to improve our wifi? I am up for scrapping the current equipment if better options exist. I don't want to spend over $200 if possible. My internet service is 100/10.
Thanks
