Increasing range of wifi so it will reach the wireless bridge
I had a functiona; wireless bridge setup, but for some reason its signal has become very weak. (almost unusable, freq drops can't even log into it anymore)
so before I buy an ASUS wireless router or Netgear extender to act as an extender, I wanted to know if I would get any advantages from using a 5.0 GHz band or AC band extender. I only want to improve the 2.4Ghz performance, but I was hoping that if I got a dual band model I could dedicate one band to receiving and another to sending.
I asking, because usually speeds suffer quite a bit when you ask a router to function as an extender.
On a side note, I currently have a PC with wireless AC adapter. If I ever to add a regular 2.4Ghz card or dual card card (since they all cost the same) to it, would I be able to send the signal with that instead (w/ Windows)? Or would the existing card interfere with with the new one? The antennas will be ~30cm away from each other.
