Hi guys,

Need expertise's input. I'm currently on unifi 100mbps with stock router DIR 842.
My issue is i'm having a weak signal in my master bedroom where I do my gaming (ps4).

Signal is better if i put the router slightly in the middle of the aisle towards my room but kind of an eyesore. Should i go for a better router or powerline would help in my case? Any brand to recommend with budget <rm400

Thanks!

I'd rather setup a bridged router inside the master's..

I have a question, and I am not sure if this has been discussed on this thread or others.

I have TIME Fibre as my ISP with 500Mbps subscription, WiFi router is the TP-Link Archer C1200 that came with the plan. The TP Link website sure says 5GHz: Up to 867Mbps Signal Rate. Tested the connection and it resulted with around 340+ Mbps D/L and U/L using Ookla thru my iPhone 7+ connected wirelessly to the router thru 5G, with both devices sitting within 5 feet apart.

Why is it that my speedtest result so far from 500Mbps,? TIA
