Good for you, get it.
I paid 160$ CAD (120$US) for the router and cable 100ft. Got an access point with old router. Got max speed all accross the house and even 30 ft in the backyard, thinking of getting an outdoor access point
I'm not an enterprise. Family of four...
I will find out how. Dont want the router to be visible on the main floor. Will put it in my closet probably and will pass a 120v cable from a light swith located in the basement and make a plug in the closet. I will receive the new router and the 100ft cable probably by friday.
Made a test with my actual setup with the DIR 655, in the basement beside my PC, it is at 32mbps and in the main bedroom, it's 5mbps. In my son room it is 1-2 or none.
By the way this is my PC.

I bought the TP Link Archer C1900 with 100ft of Cat6A cable and will use my old DIR-655 as an accesspoint. Do you guys think it is a good start or I should have bought 2 x Archer 1900?
Okay, thanks for the info.Is it a bad thing that the signal will be cut in half with an extender or it will still be better than my DIR-655 at the far end of the house?
My shed will be like 100feet from extender router. If I use this to the shed, will it work ? they won't be on the same circuit...
Sorry but when I ask questions it's because I don't know the answer. Mnewsham and some others had been extremely helpful and I learnt a lot the last 24 hours and I have been reading the whole day about the subject. Ask me to watercool a PC and I'll be able to do it with my eyes closed. But...
The router has to be in the basement and same thing with the AP if I get one. Is there limitation in the AP positionning?
The problem is, I don't want to pass cables through the walls up to the first floor. I think buying a new router and using my old one has an extender would be the best and...
The powerline adapter is just to get the internet into my backyard which is on a circuit breaker.
My needs are still a router or the APs for my house like mnewsham is mentionning . My only concern is wiring there APs.
My budget is also very flexible, checking for the Archer C5400 right now but...
Yeah I know, I will probably get it. Just want to get the best for my needs, I'm ready to extend up to 400$ but is it really worth it? I am also trying to get the wifi to my backyeard shed that is around 30 meters from my house. I might try the powerline adapters for it.
