Are there any wireless extenders recommended by Alarm.com?
Video cameras
Alarm.com recommends Wi-Fi extenders that are capable of allowing the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi bands to be broadcast separately (i.e., use separate Wi-Fi names for each band) to ensure compatibility with the full range of Alarm.com video devices. To verify the video devices' specific Wi-Fi requirements when extender options are limited, see their data sheets in Video Devices.
Although Alarm.com does not recommend a specific model, Netgear brand Wi-Fi extenders are generally a reliable option for expanding a user's Wi-Fi network.
Note: As an alternative, the Alarm.com Smart Gateway (ADC-SG130), though not a Wi-Fi booster or Wi-Fi extender, can be run using Ethernet to provide an additional access point for Alarm.com-compatible video devices and video doorbell cameras. For more information, see Important considerations for a successful ADC-SG130 installation experience.
Doorbell cameras
Alarm.com Video Doorbell models
The Alarm.com Video Doorbell series devices have the same recommendations as general video cameras.
SkyBell Doorbell Camera models
The extender must broadcast a visible network. Hidden SSIDs (i.e., Wi-Fi names) are not supported.
Verify the extender uses an SSID (e.g., NetworkName_ext) that is unique from the router's main wireless network. The SkyBell Doorbell Camera may bounce between the two networks otherwise.
