Wi-Fi boosters, WiFi repeaters and WiFi extenders are just different terms for the same device. While all have the common goal to increase the wireless range, it is important that you remember that different Wi-Fi boosters offer different features and work in different ways. While most Wi-Fi extenders can connect directly to your router via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, others will connect to the electrical wiring in your house. When choosing a Wi Fi extender, make sure you read all the details and verify that the requirements are met. Also known as whole-home Wi Fi System, a mesh Wi-Fi network is also called a Wi-Fi Network. The central router connects to the modem, and one or several satellite routers (or Nodes), act as access points for Wi-Fi signals. You can position the nodes all around your house and increase your coverage.
