Re: Home WiFi woes

Depends on how old (or cheap) the extension lead is.
AFAIK, the issue is the protection systems in them (like anti surge).

(Home-made extensions dont have an issue, nor should ones without extra protection circuits).

However, its generally better to plug directly into the socket, and use an ethernet extension, rather than a power line extension.
