I'm trying to help a friend that has a D-Link DI-624 (rev C) wireless router and an old house with metal lathe in the plaster walls. Signal strength diminishes quickly through the walls.
I noticed D-Link has a DWL-G800AP Wireless Range Extender that claims to be compatible with the DI-624. However, D-Link has recently end-of-life'd this product. I didn't notice a replacement or upgraded version.
Also, comments on these groups talk about problems with and the lack of effectiveness of the DWL-G800AP.
1) Do wireless extender products in general effectively extend the wireless network range within a house?2) Is this particular D-Link product any good?
3) Can you recommend a proven solution?Thanks in advance.
