AESD

Hey, i need recomendations for what to get. I have ethernet ran to my room(just one cable) that i use for my pc. its 100mbs up/down and id like to get a router or similar so that i can have wifi in my room. It used to be fine but my new phone (redmi k20 pro) just seems to have shit wifi at home? Preferably a swedish store or amazon.co.uk/de. Thanks!

What is your budget?

Cheap id prefer, it only needs 2 ports really and 3 meters of wifi range.

It sounds like you already have a router, so you probably only need an access point or something similar to extend the wifi you get from your existing router.

 

If that is the case, something like this might be what you want: https://www.amazon.de/Netgear-WAC104-100PES-Business-802-11ac-Wireless/dp/B01LQ23DU4

 

It has a few ethernet ports for your wired and you can setup your own SSID for your room for your own wifi. Can can set it up with the same SSID and password as your existing wireless (make sure to use a different channel), however note it will not allow for proper roaming.

I think I might have misunderstood your cable running into your room. If this is just the cable from the ISP and you are looking for cheap and cheerful, then below might work:

 

802.11n (where wireless performance and speed is not your main concern)

https://www.amazon.de/NETGEAR-WNR2000-200PES-300Mbit-LAN-Ports-schwarz/dp/B00S9DKS02

https://www.amazon.de/TP-Link-TL-WR940N-Anschluss-Glasfaser-Modem-schwarz/dp/B00VVHONRM

 

802.11ac (still not fantastic performance, but slightly better than above)

https://www.amazon.de/Netgear-R6120-100PES-Dual-Band-Gästenetzwerk-kostenfreie/dp/B071HWVV5J

https://www.amazon.de/dp/B07GVR9TG7

 

These are just examples. Without knowing your priorities on cost vs performance.
