My suitable solution is to opt for Ethernet to Wireless Access Point (WAP) This is by far the best option available to increase wireless speed and range in a home. Instead of relying on powerlines to carry the signal to the wireless repeater or WAP, it uses actual Ethernet cable. Most new homes are already wired with Ethernet, but if you own an older home, chances are that you will need to run some cable.

Once you have determined the best location for the WAP, you need to decide what type you want to use. There are three general options that work well in residential environments, A) Apple Airport in bridge mode, B) generic WAP, C) router converted to WAP.
