Recently I moved my PC upstairs which caused me to have terrible internet connection. I would get 1-2 bars connection, and it would often fall away completely. ( PC in the attic, router downstairs). I decided to get a wifi repeater/extender: The Sitecom WLX-2006. I was warned that my internet speed may be cut in half because of the way a repeater works.
However I am experiencing extreme speed loss. Wired to my router I get download speed around 105 Megabit/s and upload speed 10 Megabit/s (Speedtest)
Now that the PC is upstairs and connected through the wifi repeater I get around 8-10 Megabit/s download and 8 Megabit/s upload. Ping is around the same.
I feel like this loss of internet speed is due to settings, because the upload speed and ping are close to what I get with a wired connection, but I can't for the life of me figure out what settings I should change, and I really don't want to mess around with things I have little to no knowledge of.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!
