Questions before you buy
Does a mains WiFi extender need to be near the router?
It needs to receive a usable signal from the router, so placing it in the dead spot itself may not work well. Follow the manufacturer’s placement guidance.
Can I use a WiFi extender in any socket?
Use a socket permitted by the product instructions and avoid locations that block ventilation or put the unit behind large objects.
Will a mains extender work with any broadband router?
Compatibility varies. Check the extender’s supported WiFi standards and security against your router’s settings.
What is a pass-through socket?
Some plug-in models include an additional socket on the front, allowing another plug to use the outlet. Confirm this feature on the exact model.
