Will be inside an office. Brick building with cinder block walls between conference rooms.

Internet is from Verizon and relatively fast but the range isn't good outside of the main office room. Need to get it down the hall to several conference rooms.

TIA.

ETA: preferably in the $50 range but will pay more if you promise its worth it.

I bought the set of three Netgear Nighthawk extenders last year for our office and shop and they work great. They are extending wifi from our office inside a metal building into our shop in another metal building with zero issue. It comes with one primary that hooks into your router and the two secondary’s can mesh with it and be repeaters.

Get mesh. Wi-Fi extenders are cheap and slow and based on 8 year old tech not much different than a string and a cup.

Get the eero pro or similar. $350.

These are good too.
That's what I have at my house also, main one in the middle and the other 2 on each end of the house and its been really good. The ends of the house were hard to reach with just the one in the middle but the auxillary ones on the ends have ended that.

I have this by by the backdoor and it extends across my garage to a workshop on the other side with zero signal lost.
