Hello everyone,
We have a single-family home with two floors (built on a slope, ground floor + basement). Our router is located in the basement in the utility room. We have a Wi-Fi repeater in the hallway on the ground floor, but the signal is very poor. Our internet connection speed is 50,000 (50,000), so it should work fine. Our PCs and TVs are connected to the internet directly via Ethernet cables and don’t rely on Wi-Fi. However, Wi-Fi coverage for phones and tablets on the ground floor is weak.
Can anyone recommend a repeater that offers better performance? Currently, we are using the TP Link RE 450 AC 1750.
There must be good options that can be connected to the internet via Ethernet cable and then broadcast Wi-Fi. I haven’t found any yet, but such devices must exist, right?
Thanks in advance,
Best regards

Even with mesh, you lose some performance.
But the main thing is that it’s clearly better than before and you’re satisfied. It says it’s somehow mesh capable. But since we are very satisfied for now, we’ll leave it at that. Still, it’s good to know that there’s room for improvement.
