Use the Netgear EX8000 Setup to partially extend your wifi range. Similar to routers like the Netgear X6 and other potent routers, it provides an incredibly high bandwidth. You can increase the range without slowing down so that it encompasses the whole dead zone within your home or place of work.
A Netgear Nighthawk X6S router can cover a 2500 square foot home because of its expanded range. The Netgear EX8000 Setup wireless range extender uses comparable technologies and offers a comparable coverage area. However, using two range extenders won’t provide coverage for 5000 square feet.
