FS: two DDWRT WiFi routers, $75 for the pair - BLINGMW - 12-06-2018
One is a dual channel 2.4/5ghz that for some reason buffalo stopped making

The other is a just a 2.4ghz but also DDWRT

With them I was able to split my connection to neighboring house 200ft away, worked pretty well

so that version of wrt has the repeater mode? just flashed my old one the other day but for some reason that mode isn't there, I could repeat across the wire connection with a vlan, but who uses wires these days?

I don't remember the details of how I set it up, but yes, right now the dual channel one is set up as a repeater and the smaller one as the main. Then the link between them is 2.4ghz and the dual channel can use its 5ghz for client connections, which is a lot faster than having one radio do both.

From what i recall, it was whether or not the access point and/or router supported it or not.

Half considering going back to these because the Netgear stuff I replaced them with, while faster, has firmware developed by some kind of semi-intelligent slime mold.

Buy ubiquiti stuff and never look back. It runs a version of debian natively, and can be flashed to openwrt if you're into that sort of thing. I've never needed a reason to not use the stock firmware though.

Well ok, haven't looked into them. Maybe this will do what I need
https://www.amazon.com/AmpliFi-Ubiquiti-Seamless-Wireless-Extenders/dp/B07HHHC8JB/
or this, though with no useful range specs from their site who knows
https://www.amazon.com/AmpliFi-Ubiquiti-Seamless-Wireless-Extenders/dp/B01L9O08PW/
So you're saying their firmware updates don't break the devices 50% of the time and all the features actually work? That's an improvement for sure....
