Things Like Netgear
| Extenders only work if you need more range around the place you are in. Otherwise no need and ISPs are so shitty that some routers don't work connected directly to their main line. Good luck though
| >>ISPs being shitty.
Yeah basically the problem I thought would be the case if I did invest in that. Thanks. Might go for an extender eventually since downloads are spotty in the basement.
| I got a TP_Link one. Can recommend if you don't know which brand to go for
| I once tried to connect a netgear router to a netgear network interface (PCI). No Link was established, no matter what I did, but the router worked with any other network interface (realtek, intel, asus, etc.)
Don't buy netgear.
| netgear is a cheap fucking brand, I had their router and hated it

| Never really thought about tossing my ISP's router (VerizonFIOs) but just wondered if routers like netgear or wifi extenders are worth the extra cost. Thoughts?
