I know some of you guys are really good at this so I'm going to pop the question.
My ISP modem router is at one end of the house (all cables converge), my extender is at the other (about 25') and this setup works. My detached garage is another 30 feet from the house and wifi in the garage from the extender is, shall we say, limited.
So I'm wondering which would be a better solution, Ethernet over powerline or another extender or a more powerful router. Any recommendations or ideas?
I'm currently leaning toward a D-Link DHP-W611AV PowerLine AC1200 Wireless Gigabit Starter Kit as I need WiFi in the garage.
Also, I have a fairly extensive x10 system that I've built up over the last 40 years. Would the powerline option interfere with the x10 powerline use?
Thanks for you help.
