Relevant info: 2 Story home. Router is on the 2nd floor near the center. 500/100 Mbps Fiber connection -> 5Ghz AC Router -> PC with 867Mhz AC.
1) PC plugged directly into the router gets about 510/100 Mbps.
2) Same PC on the 1st floor directly below the router averages around 470/97 Mbps.
3) Same PC on the first floor in a corner gets about 25/3 Mbps.
So what is the best way to get #3 to near #2 speeds?
I've looked into Powerline adaptors but the reviews of the 1Gbps models that I've seen seem to top out around 100Mbps. Do I need a wireless AC extender/repeater? What do you guys think my best option will be?
