All you need is a decent dock and a Wi-Fi repeater with data a cable port.

Ofk, I’m on a family shared line and quite afar from the modem, so the results may definitely be better.

    I would suggest a mesh router system rather than a repeater. A lot of Asus’s modern routers can be added to their mesh system, Netgear has a good system as well

      Mesh routers are nothing to recommend lightly. Most are a complete headache to set up.

        I really miss Google’s original mesh router setup, it was so painless, almost plug and play. But of course, they bought a company and it got absorbed by their nest mesh system, which is more expensive and from what I understand more annoying. And now their old WiFi routers are in support limbo.

        But if they can set up a repeater, I feel like they can setup a mesh system. I was able to do it through my Asus app on my phone pretty quickly. The only issue I had was with a used router I got off eBay being finicky about reliably remembering it’s mesh setup once it had been unplugged. Something wrong with the cmos or something.
