    Best advise I can give is to avoid them like the plague. They're slow and laggy. Wireless is half duplex, it cannot send and receive traffic at the same time, either one direction or the other. Just having a wireless repeater connected halves the throughput of the original wireless router.

    You have better options, 1, run a cable or 2, use homeplugs to get a connection to a second wireless device on another channel to cover the area.
