Why not support an extender that still works through electrical system

By Woodworker/Artist
Rated 3 out of 5
Date: 2026-07-08

I have two buildings, one being my home, the other a metal building being my artist studio. The old NETGEAR Essentials, which is what I had, extended my WiFi via the electrical system between buildings. That was superior to the Nighthawk as now the extender can only be mounted in the house and has to penetrate walls to help in the studio. I have weak WiFi as a result. If you need to extend WiFi only within one building, I’m sure it works great, between two on one property, sure wish they still supported an extender that used electrical system.
