The 2wire 3801HGV is in the basement of a three-story house, which is network wired to five locations throughout the house. The front rooms of the house, on both the second and third stories, receive little or no wireless signal. My house has plaster walls throughout, complicating the issue of a strong wireless signal.
We use both PC (Dell laptops) and Apple products (iPhones and iPads), and for the past four months, have been using a Netgear WNDR3700v3 router as an access point. It is the most inconsistent product I have ever experienced. It drops signals at will, and even on an iPad that is less than 15 feet away.
I have thought about purchasing an Apple Airport Express to use as an access point, but am looking for recommendations. Has anyone had any luck with an extender purchased through AT&T?
I am seeking recommendations on what product to purchase as I need to extend the wireless signal throughout the house. We're burning up our mobile phone data plan because we cannot access wireless in our own home.
