Maybe you aren’t ready to commit to a full Wi-Fi mesh system, or maybe you don’t need as much coverage, so the asking price doesn’t make much sense. Whatever the case may be, when you need to extend the range of your Wi-Fi, the aptly-named Wi-Fi extender may be the low-cost solution you’ve been seeking. On that note, range extenders are not able to boost your speeds, just distribute your existing signal.Wi-Fi extenders (sometimes called repeaters) pick up your Wi-Fi signal, magnify it, and rebroadcast the boosted signal, optimizing your coverage. They can range in cost, but are typically a fraction of what a mesh Wi-Fi system would run you. Many extenders have universal compatibility with Wi-Fi enabled devices and routers. Below, you can find some of our top, money-saving picks that are currently on sale:
This Netgear EX6120 AC1200 range extender offers coverage up to 1,500 square feet with speeds up to 1200Mbps and with two frequency bands you have more bandwidth to go around. Setup is simple: just plug the unit into the wall and press the WPS button to connect to your router. There’s even a Netgear Wifi Analyzer app which will help you select the best location.
Need more speed capability? TP-Link has you covered with speeds of up to 2600Mbps. The built-in indicator light shows you optimal placement without having to rely on an app. It’s compatible with any type of router, but when used with a TP-Link, OneMesh-compatible router, this device can act as a mesh Wi-Fi system in conjunction with your router and modem.
