Which hardware manufacturer has the best app to configure your setup? (alien.top)

I’m not a networking guru by any means, so I’m looking for a setup with a cable modem and a wifi extender to cover my 2000 sq foot house (cable modem is in one end of the basement, wife sits upstairs at opposite end of the house.) I’m often frustrated by the weak apps you must use to set things up.

You need a Modem & and Router before thinking of getting a wifi extender. Eeros have a nice app if its important to you.

My desktop has the best app. It's called Firefox. The hardware mobile apps are all trash used for telemetry.
