How to Set Up a Wi-Fi Extender
The Wi-Fi extender plugs into a power outlet in your home and rebroadcasts an existing wireless signal. Ideally, you want to set the Wi-Fi extender up in a central location in your home but in a different place from your router.
Can You Use a Wi-Fi Extender With a PC?
A Wi-Fi extender rebroadcasts an existing wireless signal, which means you can use a Wi-Fi extender with virtually any tech device, including a PC.
