@punkrjb - you should post that as a deal! Especially as that original deal is no longer available and this whole thread is about to be expired.

Why does it take so long nowerdays on this site for mods to expire deals no longer available. It seems like this site has gone backwards or is that just me?

i live in 'sheltered' accommodation and wonder if this would work extending my wi-fi to the common room, approx 20 to 25 meters away?

It should as it uses the electrical nables to link up the two boxes then acts as a wifi repeater

Last time i used a wifi extender, my wifi sppeeds dropped from 36mbs to 1mbs. wonder if this kit will do the same?

This is not just an Wi-Fi extender but a powerline set too. So long as you have fairly good cabling it should work. I've been using gigabit poweline adapters for tv boxes and they have been excellent

Might be a daft question but do these need to be on the same socket ring in the house or just any socket contracted to the consumer unit.

Any socket ring

Does this come with 2 ethernet cables to connect with?
Edit: Also is it only compatible with 2g or 5g as well?

thanks

If you wanted one but Argos were out of stock, it's worth checking again. It's round the time uncollected reservations expire. (I let mine lapse after deciding not to get it).
