Before I get to my post - here's a fun fact. I knew I'd posted a while back about improving the speed/access inmy old house. I thought I'd take a look-see in case there was any advice that was usable - and realized I posted it almost exactly ten years ago. I bet technology has changed a bit!Dear Internet:
I live in a smallish apartment, but with lots of interference. My
cable modem/wireless router is centrally located and gives decent coverage to all rooms. (But it's
ancient - I bought it nearly three years ago!!!!!)
The interference is messing with my
Sonos Connect, which is at the far end of the apartment. I'd like to move my modem/router to that end and plug a CAT5 directly into the Connect; I believe that will fix
that problem.
But I'm worried that my wi-fi signal will be too weak at the
other end of the apartment - where I stream teevee.
If I just buy the latest and greatest in new wireless modem router technology, do you think that will do the trick?
Or do I need something more? I used those Powerline adapters ten years ago (I don't remember what brand, I think Linksys). I hear setting up a "mesh network" is the bee's knees.
Knowing that there will be follow-up questions...
What Does Anyone Recommend?Love,
Bob
