Wi-Fi boosters at Toolstation: what to check before you buy

Retailer ranges change. Search Toolstation's current networking listings and verify the exact model and whether it is a range extender, mesh system or powerline kit.

The terms are often used for the same plug-in range extender, but 'booster' can also describe mesh or powerline products. Check how the device connects to your router.

Many extenders support standard Wi-Fi routers, but check the manufacturer's compatibility details and setup requirements for your specific router.

Place it where the router signal is still stable and between the router and the weak-coverage room. A midpoint with a poor source signal will also have a poor link.
