Have you ever been stuck somewhere with no good connection? Does your wifi ever have trouble loading because you are so far from your router. The Raspberry Pi can solve this problem for you. Using the Raspberry Pi you can make multiple things once of these being a Wifi Extender for your router. This has been a great solution for me especially when i’m outside trying to look up a video and am always stuck on a loading screen. This could be used for cabins, Extensions just for general home use or even at work.

Required

Computer or desktop

Micro SD card

Raspberry Pi

A power Supply

Wifi

A Raspberry Pi Case (Optional)

Mouse (Optional but very Useful In my opinion)

Installation

I have attached a word document in which you will find all the code you need to successfully complete this project as well as the Article which Should include both the steps needed to taken as well as the code provided for those steps. The first one is the one I tried my wifi extender on at first but them moved onto the second one for fun when I completed the first project. I thought both were great I just wanted to provide options for some who would run into problems with either one of them that could not get solved.

This will also come with some instruction as well as I will link the article I referred to as a reference for yourself. There will also be a community box if you find any problems with the code that is given at the bottom of the article as well as Im open to help anyone trying to tackle this project.

Conclusion

Overall this was a fun project to attempt for myself and actually became very useful for myself in multiple ways. I now use this for my room when I play games and am currently ordering a second Raspberry pi 4 in order to have multiple of these wifi extenders. For anyone who would like to pursue this project I hope you do and find as much success as myself. This not only helped boost my wifi into certain places in my house it helped me get better reception when I was at work the couple times I brought it as well as it helped me at our cabin.

I hope you all enjoyed my project and had a great time with your projects as well.
