So my wifi in my house is really sucky in the living room, my parents want me to find a way to extend the range. Anyone know of a solution? I get about half the Bars in the living room than my room, where the modem is. It's not far, maybe 30 feet max.

Thanks in advance, will REP!

Just search "repeater" on Amazon.com, you should find something that works fine within your budget.

I see this, is this a good one? Has much better ratings and is cheaper

Should be fine, I have no personal experience with anything like this so can't guarantee it, but just Google it and look at reviews.

I'd have also suggested a repeater/extender hub but you need to consider some OEM hubs lock down the repeater feature on the hubs control panel so wall plug extenders would probably do the job better failing that the long way round is a very long ethernet lead, a old hub with DHCP disabled and set that hub up in another room, I did that to extend my network 20 meters through thick brick walls to the room I needed access in.
