Due to the layout of my house, my office doesn't receive much of a wifi signal. I'm sometimes waiting 10 minutes for pages to load - it's really not feasible to work there. Can't move my office, can't move the router.
I'm looking for a wireless solution. Been reading about repeaters but a lot of what I read suggests they slow connection speeds down so much they can be just as annoying as the issue they're trying to fix.
Is it as simple as switching the repeater off once work is done to get my connection back to it's original strength? I've spoken with a few people who've said their connection speeds have dropped dramatically. I think I could probably accept this if I was able to work from my office, but I don't really want it to affect any of the streaming services I use in the evening. Thanks for any advice.
