May i ask for suggestion staying at a 5000 sq feet place… currently using TPLINK AC1750… half of the place couldnt get any wifi.

Would like to ask does wifi extender affect the speed? Would prefer to have full speed as i would like to stream HD videos. Thank you. Also there will be at least 8 users as well.

or should just get a power router. Btw, each room upstairs got ethernet port as well.

Need suggestion for it. Usually just use wifi and now need to google all this as just shifted place.

Honestly speaking, I think the extender is crap! I got one in my bedroom upstairs and my router is downstairs! The signal strength show full bar on my iPad but turtle speed! My hse is about 5300sq ft! I also,think the router supplied by tm is crap! It took more than 5 mins to start up! Knn....my previous streamyx router was better than this!

same. i am using unifi for less than 1 month and it has been giving me problems every 12-24 hours. a reboot is required. problem is when after 12 hours some devices will not be able to connect to wifi but some can. those can if you disconnect the wifi and try join sure cannot already. a reboot is required.

i flashed the firmware to AU version but still same. i noticed the cpu is always super high like 90% on avg which is not good at all. tm already replaced it once for me and still same problem. going to ask them for a different model is possible like c5.
