More than one wifi booster?

[Frimley111R]

We use a wifi booster which works very well but we have weak wifi upstairs too. I bought another booster (same type) but it doesn't seem to work. Can i only have one booster or are there versions which allow multiple devices?

Which product exactly?

The usually don't have a problem in multiples.

Shouldn't be a problem.

Are you sure you are repeating the original SSID and not a repeated one?

That might not work very well at all.

I have 3 boosters in my house, all work OK as long as you connect them to the original wifi and not the extended one.

Boosters are generally garbage.

Do it properly and use a proper WIFI access point.

Access points are all very well and good, but they require an ethernet connection ... probably not helpful to the OP

It's 2020, get a mesh Wi-Fi system and forget about boosters!

If you'd just tell us the model, you'd get proper help.
