4g Wi-Fi router

[Teffhead]

Hi guys need some help. I have the unlimited ee Wi-Fi 3G/4g home router. I run the cat 5 cable into a TP link wall plug to chuck the signal around the house but befor it goes into the wall I feed it through and apple AirPort Extreme. Now apple don’t make routers anymore and don’t provide updates. So I’m guessing that’s why I don’t have a good connection. Could you advise on either a decent wall plug or a something else that would be able to pass the Wi-Fi around the house. The house is large and old so the only way I can cheaply transmit the signal is to use a wall plug. If you have any better ideas would be grateful. 

point number 2 during the day my download is 45mb upload is about 5mb at night it’s terrible and unusable ie 0.5mb download and upload doesn’t exist. Any ideas

Have you considered WiFi Extenders ? They carry the signal over your mains electricity.

Hi @Teffhead ,

In addition to the above good advice, I highly recommend Devolo powerline adapters with a WiFi access point built-in at the far end.

You can also buy two Devolo powerline adapters, both with no WiFi functionality, and then add a WiFi access point as you like.

Some people disapprove of my recommending the Devolo brand but I've used them for over a decade, and several generations of devices have proved themselves production-ready in the home.

Beware of using a WiFi backhaul or repeater to solve a WiFi signal problem.
