Can I plug a WiFi extender/booster into my powerline adapter? - eviltoast

I just purchased 2 powerline adapters and own a WiFi booster which I’ve been using the past few years (extends the range but has slow WiFi speeds).

If I plug my 1st powerline adapter into my WiFi router and then the second one into my WiFi extender/booster will this provide a better WiFi speed emitted from the booster?

I know you can buy a powerline adapter with built in WiFi but I’m on a budget!

Thanks!

    That won’t do anything. Powerline is trash, but so are extenders. You’ll have better luck with a mesh system, but you still have to mind the placement of the satellites so they are in good range of the main unit to relay the signal to where you need it. But the best will always be running an Ethernet cable.
