My DB box is located on the ground floor and I can't get any wifi coverage in my room on the 2nd floor and also on the 3rd floor.

I have heard of Repeaters and Homeplugs as a mean to extend the wifi coverage but each with its own pros and cons but which is the better solution?

I would go for HomePlug with wireless AP (not wireless extender) since this is the simplest other than LAN cable. However, since your house has 2nd and 3rd floor, I think most likely you are using 3-phase wiring. If that is true, then please note that the HomePlug will not cross to different phase. You will need separate HomePlug for each phase, I believe. smile.gif Using separate AP on each floor will make your network more scalable/flexible.
