I’m good for wi-fi coverage, but the xrouter has a 1Gbps switch, and I currently plug headless Pis into an old 8 port 10Mbps switch. (Saving grace: It has a traffic bar graph LED so I can see the traffic, especially when it’s saturated.)
As for wireless extension, currently beaming an SSID of “ScheerFolly” at the most likely political rally point in a swing riding. I’ll open the AP with a local wiki site once I figure out how to fool Android and iOS’s “no Internet access” detection. (Simplest work-around would be to bridge the long range wifi with the Pi3’s native wifi to my router’s guest access and to the Internet.)
