I have installed a wi-fi camera in my garage :
It is right on the limit of wifi coverage and is a bit slow. and drops out from time to time:
Many years ago Stevelup recommended a mains passthrough extender for our very long solid old house after wireless wifi extenders were cr ap and it worked a treat: The make was Solway but sadly in the house move upheaval five years ago one of the two plug in elements has been lost.
I've done the best I can jiggling the router and it seems it's the distance not the walls which are timber/cladding that is the problem.(12 metres)
I've done a search and PT Link with various model numbers comes up repeatedly. I guess technology has advanced since my clunky Solway system.
So can any kind person please recommend a suitable mains pass through extender (the garage is on the same mains circuit board as the rest of the house, just set apart) that will boost the signal to my Ring camera.
(Pls don't try and sell me other cameras - Ring suits my set up just fine )
TIA
