WIFI Range Extender recommendation

[argoxp]

Hello all!

I Currently own a TP Link RE1000 (very old) and im looking to upgrade, my problem with my current range extender is that whenever I use my microwave my TV gets disconnected XD , and if I want to download something from my laptop , YT starts to degrade and im guessing its because of my RE bandwidth.

So any recommendations? I would also like to spend 60 USD tops.

Thank you all!

The few range extenders I have in mind may not work but look into getting ethernet over power adapter with Wi-Fi range extending in your area. Are you in the US? If so something like this:

 

TP-Link AV600 Powerline WiFi Extender - Powerline Adapter with N300 WiFi, Power Saving, Ethernet over Power(TL-WPA4220 KIT) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HSQAIQU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_Mcp7BbF4D81CJ

 

I used this in a home I rented but now I'm in an apartment complex and it is super muggy so I just gpt a 100 foot flat cat 6 and ran it into my room for direct connection to a spare router that I turned into a second hub.

You're welcome. What is your living situation like? Are you renting?

 

(I am sorry if that was a sensitive question)

No sir, I own the house, two story with thick unforgiving concrete walls.

Have you ever thought about running a network cable? Hiding it in trim os something I do and it works really well in those situations. Something to look into maybe at a later time? Cost me in my moms hpme (brick 1940's) around 14 hours in labor and $150 in product.
