I'm using a GL.iNet GL-MT330N-V2 mini-router as a wifi range extender. I have it close to the RPi and connected to it via ethernet.
Unfortunately the price has almost doubled since I bought mine 18 months ago. Works well though.
@TheOldPresbyope The rooms I need to get to are on different ring mains. I seem to remember PowerLine plugs only working on the same ring main, unless things have really come on? The cat's not going to be let off that easily.
@jonners I have a third moOde setup in the kitchen using just this method. Great minds think alike and all that.
Ah, well. The powerline network adapters are an inexpensive solution compared to WiFi mesh networking products, but the Eero system I helped a friend setup works well and has much higher throughput than the range extenders he was using previously. Besides Eero there's Orbi and others..
