I have a client that works in an older historic brick building. They are using a Ring Video Doorbell to monitor their front door activity.
The Problem
Buildings with thick walls limit wireless radio signal. The Ring had poor signal quality and often lost connection with the Internet.
The Solution
A wireless range extender. An extender should be placed about half-way between the source of the signal (WiFi router or access point) and the device(s) you are trying to get service to. Once configured the devices connecting to the extender will operation alongside any of the other devices.
Pros & Cons
Pro: It works. Con: Because of the work of the extender, it operates at about half the speed of the original wifi network you are connected to.
I’ve used a few different products in the past and they all seem to do what they are supposed to do. This Netgear was no exception and it comes from a company that has a good history of backing its products. You can buy online for around $50.
