Agree with Linda's and Arthur's suggestions.I replaced the FIOS router with a Netgear Orbi and two Orbi satellites to cover both inside (3 levels) and outside (deck, garage). (And stop paying rented on a likely dated Vz router).Current standard is wifi 7, dual or tri-band. Here's one on Amazonhttps://a.co/d/fvQWu9U...Dan We had the same problem and a NetGear wifi mesh extender solved the problem. Just plug it in.On Tue, Dec 9, 2025, 8:05 AM Arthur Buckland via Lincoln <[email protected]> wrote:PaulPurchase a mesh WiFi network from Microcenter in Cambridge No electrician neededJust read the directions and plug it inOn Dec 8, 2025, at 7:03 PM, Paul Shorb <[email protected]> wrote:We have Verizon Fios. The WiFi signal from the wireless router provided by Verizon reaches everywhere in the house well enough, except for one basement room. We have a Verizon WiFi extender device but testing has shown that it doesn't help (there or anywhere else in the house). In theory we could run a solid cable connection from that router (which is on the second floor) to the basement room in question, but that would be a long, tricky route. Has anyone solved a problem like this, and if so, how? Does this need a electrician, who knows how to snake a cable through walls etc? Other ideas?
