Hi All

I currently have an RE700 attached to my Archer AX73 in Onemesh mode. 

One of my larger rooms at home ( which has the RE700) is an extension and has really good insulation in all 4 walls floor and roof. The insulation is the type which has foil on both sides and seems to act as a wfif blocker ....hence requirement for RE700 rather than just using the signal from the Ax73. 

 

My issue is that I seem to be getting intermittent dropout of wifi connections , especially with Iphones whilst in the room . So one second there will be full wifi, it then drops to 4G for 3 or 4 seconds and then back to wifi again. I've looked on tether and the RE700 connection seems strong ...( its only using 5g as the backhall and is stating 1475Mbps link speed ) .

 

I was wondering if I binned the RE700 and replaced with the Powerline PGW2440 kit whether I would get a better service. ? 

 

Any thoughts ?

 

cheers

Guy
