Hi,
I have a Sky Hub in my living room but upstairs in my bedroom and son's room I don't get a great wifi connection. It does work but when watching streams through chromecast etc it stutters a lot.
I tried buying a TP Link Wifi Extender from Argos but after putting it at the top of my stairs and trying at the bottom it didn't make much of a difference.
Its an old house (1940) and has brick/plaster walls.
What is my best option at having a better connection upstairs:
1) I was going to just run an ethernet cable upstairs but as the chromecast only runs on WIFI (unless I buy the ethernet adapter) it seemed like a last resort.
2) Run an ethernet upstairs and plug in a spare Netgear router I have for WIFI access.
3) Powerlink adapter (either with WIFI or without and buy the chromecast ethernet adapter)
4) Other....
What do you guys recommend?
Thanks
