Its not about assuming people are and want to live in the dark ages, its about not having objects poking out of the wall where the daughter can't get her wheelchair past. We have tried boosters/extenders when we were on virgin they worked fine but had to remove them they limited wheelchair accessa round the house the connection was also good enough when on virgin without the boosters, hence giving this router a chance but its failed.

I have told her we will just have to wait on this, we are having a lot of work done on the dining room in March so more sockets will be put in and hopefully get one put away from wheelchair access.

Ah, the undisclosed extra criteria, I know it well. I live in a home that we have had to adapt for electric wheelchair use for my wife, I can honestly say - even pre adaptation - devices sticking out of sockets were never an issue for us, but obviously you have sockets in odd/inconvenient locations. Mesh nodes - which are a much better idea generally than repeaters - are corded, so tend not to protrude that much and can be sited somewhere sensible, obviously it's better if you can run a cable to them for wired backhaul.

If you've having work done in the house anyway then running network cables to places where access points can go would be a better use of resources than installing sockets in locations suitable for Wi-Fi repeaters
