    disable wifi on your home router, connect this via ethernet and power and it booms out a much more powerful wifi.

    it also comes pre set
    This looks like a possibility, but I prefer the one from Colonol Gadaffi.

    What were the improvements to wi-fi speed using this? My concern is the device would still be at the opposite end of the house, through some thick walls, from the room where all our devices are.

    I know I could move the router, but we are possibly moving soon and I don't fancy getting the phone line moved just for a few months.

    Ultimately you are not going to boost speed. Your speed is what it is when it leaves the router, these devices aim to maximise coverage. But the ones I linked also delivered wifi as near as possible to the speed of the internet coming from the router.

    I have a degradation of signal because the router is upstairs on one side of the house, and the TV/PS4 are downstairs on the opposite side.

    Plugged into my Router atm - 53 Mbps.
    On wifi and sat next to router - 20Mbps
    Downstairs - 15 Mbps

    Netflix UHD requires 25 Mbps download speeds. I sometimes get it, I sometimes don't. Just wondering if these devices will get me the speeds I need.
