Hello, I have a 2000 sq ft home with Xfinity Internet. I’m currently getting 89.2 down and 94.7 up. Running 13-15 devices (phones, computers, TV’s) for things such as streaming and gaming. All walls are wooden frames+drywall. Can anyone be so kind as to give me some recommendations? My brother installed the Google home router system but it sucks so I’m looking to change it. Please advise. No budget. I’m willing to spend if needed.

    You can do some research and find stronger routers for Wi-Fi from Asus, Ubiquiti, etc.

    You can also expand coverage with WAPs e.g. Wireless Access Points. Lots of brands to choose, but Ubiquiti is common. Run cat6 cable in attic or crawlspace from router to somewhere central and install WAP in ceiling. 2000 sq. ft sounds like at least 2 WAPs one at each end or one on each floor.

    You can look into mesh networking devices but they increase latency and can be unreliable.
