Hi.
I have a wireless conncetion setup in my house,shared by multiple computers.A few days ago,I noticed by coincidence that the two pc's far from the modem/router were suffering internet speed loss.I was surprised because it was happening even though the signal meter was showing full signal.
I researched a bit,but decided to ask before taking action.
Is there a way to fix this speed loss?
I thought of getting a range extender at first,since even though the signal-meter is full,the speed does rise if I move a pc closer to the modem.However I read that range extenders could cause loss in response times,and an employee at a local store told me it wouldn't do any good and I had to use a cable if I wanted to use the internet at full speed.
Is it really the only way out? Could additional devices or a different modem fix this?
Thanks.
