(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); My internet for my PC is really poor since i moved to a different room. Im thinking of buying a wirless repeater or a powerline adapter. Ive been looking and i found these:
Poweline adapter: You must login or register to view this content.
Wireless repeater: You must login or register to view this content.
The thing is I really don't now which one would be best for me. me router is 3 rooms away. I have a BT Home hub (Not the new one) and I would really like your help on which one to buy. If you can suggest a better one for under £80 or suggest which one I should get.
Thank you Smile

Instead of spending money, why don't you just move it back to its original place? If it is easier to access where it is now, try and contact BT and explain the situation.. Most of the time they'll up your signal for free, so you stay a customer to them.

Ive tried to contact BT and there is not much they can do :/ Apparently there is a dead spot in my room. So ill have to spend some money to fix this issue. Does anyone have any of these and that can help me decide?

The second TP-Link device is very good. I have the exact same one, same model in my house and it works a charm. Smile
