Using Wifi Extenders in the home

[moosp]

I have just installed a Netgear Wifi Extender as at the end of the house we loose the signal down to around 50%.

I have successfully installed it but the speed seems to be slower than the 50% signal strength from the original router. Indeed on page 12 of the installation instructions it warns that the speed will be slower.

So I am back to where I was with a slow connection at the end of the house, but instead of being because of lower signal strength from the original router, it is because of the intermediate Netgear amplifier.

Hmm. Is there another way to get better wifi at the far end of the house?

Thanks for your help.
