Never seen much point in paying good money to slow my wifi by 50%.

Heated, very good price for this.
I had one before and while it mostly worked well after a while I would find that the low signal light (red) would keep flashing up after a few days and it needed rebooting (complete power off then back on) to return it to a good signal. It could have been the location I had it but it seems strange that it would always start with a full signal then reduce over time but was good when it worked normally, maybe I just had a bad one and with this being Amazon returns would be a breeze if necessary....

Are these, Netgear extenders in general, updatable?
Thanks.

Can't decide one of these or just getting a decent router to replace the crap one my provider has given me

I did that some time back. Worked like a charm until the replacement router packed up after only 18 months!!

I have a Virgin SuperHub Version 1 Router.
I had cat5 or cat5e cables:
1:Router to desk top direct LAN cable only; 3m
2:Router to TP-Link 1200 powerline; 2m
3:Router to Zyxel 600 powerline; 2m
4,5:Paired Powerlines to laptops. 2m
I changed the 5 Lan cables to 2m/3m cat6 cables during the recent Maplin cable sale posted here.
The speeds to both desktop and laptops went up from 60 Mbps max to 75 Mbps on the TP-link and max 30Mbps to max 60 Mbps on the Zyxel.
The intermittent connection problems with the Zyxel disappeared.
The most dramatic improvement was changing cales going into the pcs, i.e. Ringmain powerline > laptop.
So I would recommend changing cables to cat6.
