I hoped but without much hope. My house is very old and has two levels and a thick slab and walls 0.60. My office is on the RL and the Livebox first floor with a powerline power perfectly suited to the computer. The problem is that recently I additionally equipped with a reading light and a Kindle Whitepaper Samsung Android tablet. And there was the cat, points very very low for the reading light (I had the opportunity to make my choice of books on the computer then go to the first loading). For the tablet I want to use in parallel with the computer when I prepare trips with guest rooms etc the wifi signal is (was) almost zero. I ordered this basic model Netgear repeater, I plugged in any free socket in my office and there is wifi miracle .................. stable and strong and I can use pleasantly shelf and reading light. I really recommend it because I believed in average average. You should not be disappointed, and I'm advertising for person ..
