My router is up one flight of stairs and over two rooms. Will it enhance my WIFI signal for better streaming on my smart TV?

it can if you are able to place the extended in a location it still receives 80 percent of the original signal.

Our router is upstairs in a back bedRoom. We setup the Amped Wireless booster downstairs under the stairwell and it worked to boost the signal throughout the whole house. In fact, I get a stronger signal from the Amped booster than I do from the router two rooms way.

You'll want an outlet somewhere in between the two locations that you can install the Extender. My router is downstairs. My bedroom is upstairs and down 3 rooms from the stairs. I placed my Extender in the hall after the first room and I have excellent signal in my bedroom from it.

So i can place this thing in a different bedroom in the house with a not so good connection, and the signal overlap should give it a strong connection and signal, yes?

There are several things you can do to get better signal. The higher in your home you can locate your router the better. If you are stuck keeping it in a lower level, I found the DAP-1320 repeater to work quite well and an inexpensive fix. I use one of these to provide signal to the backyard and find it to be quite good.

It links into your existing Wi-Fi, so wherever you have a connection it will work. I have the router in the 2nd floor with the Wemo switch on the first. No problem. Since you are not downloading or moving around with the switch a minimal connection should be enough.If you need you can increase or transfer the router signal via a repeater or other extension methods, electrical system.

I doubt it I have added a Belkin range extender, mine is no more than 50ft from the end of house bedroom, admittedy the main router signal goes through some thick timber, but its in the middle of the house in the basement, and only sometimes gets a signal at the end of house bedroom upstairs.

The Asus WL-ANT-157 will improve the 2.4 GHZ signal coverage. How ever it will NOT boost your signal. To boost your signal you need to buy better quality router-any brand! And of course high speed high cost optic fiber will improve the speed.

I have found that making sure there is adequate wifi signal is important to using this device to stream video. For my home, I found it necessary to add a "range extender" to my wifi system . I have ocasionally experienced dropped signal since installing the extender but it is rare. Buffering has improved considerably.I have found that the recent update for the youtube app corrected a few issues including the full screen problem.I hope this helpsHarold

I'm using mine with a new Linksys AC router. I wouldn't count on across the street. Just took my Ipad outside and got to the middle of the street where I lost the signal. Depends on how many walls the signal has to go thru. As far as inside the house, it amplifies the signal wonderfully. I get great streaming on my laptop and on my TV, especially on the 5GHz channel. Much better than the el cheapo Netgear range extender I replaced.

It might help using a high speed Ethernet cord, if you have one I would try seeing if there's som wrong with your router other than that I don't know because my router is up stairs.

Depends on your floor material, if wood needn't, if cement I'm afraid the signal will drop to very low level and you'd best get a repeater or deployment another router.

Hard to say. I bought it to get a better signal to a bedroom and it does not seem to have made much if any difference. But it may depend on various factors. You may have better luck.

Yes, as long as you can get a signal it will help for a stronger signal. It did for me.

No I don't think it will. I had difficulty getting it to extend my Wifi. It's only as good as the signal it gets from the other router. I sent it back.

Yes you should, but it really depends on the construction of your home and how "WiFi unfriendly" it is. If you have standard wooden floors than it shouldn't be a problem, but if you have something like concrete (as an example), this is very bad for WiFi signals.

I have my router upstairs and about 400 feet away and it receives full signal

yes you can use this antenna to improve the signal and it can significantly boost your signal about roughly 20-30 more yards than what your factory antenna can. If you house is horizontally with rooms and TV's and microwaves and other electronics interfering with the signal then expect bad signal response. I have tried it with router down stairs west wall to up stairs far east wall with chimney in the way and it still works great. my friends tap off my wireless router 3 houses down the street with 70% signal still. I would recommend this product highly. My first one I bought was defective but my second one works great. remember doesn't improve internet speed just signal. most people forget or just didn't know.
