is it possible to use FingBox as a Wifi Extender?

TheGateKeeper

i'm not sure if the models so far can be like little modems but it would be nice to use FingBox as a wifi extender.
and is it possible to use FingBox to prioritise different devices or do you have to do that through the ISP.

@Ultrasnoop thanks a lot you can submit any Fingbox feature requests right over here:

Welcome to the forums @Ultrasnoop ...  The current Fingbox cannot be used as a WiFi extender I'm sorry to say.  You could create a feature request and see if there is any appetite from Fing to pursue. There is a section on this site for that if your so inclined.  
Fingbox will also not prioritize traffic (maybe another feature request ).  Many routers, however, do support that feature so maybe the router you have now can do it?  Probably worth looking at the user manual on it to be sure.

Thanks a lot @Marc for the helpful response. 
@Ultrasnoop - if you shared more about your setup and router we could help you further or start up a new discussion?
Let me know what you think!
Cheers,
Violet

It's been a long while and i know it. time is not great for me, i did get to dig into my modem at one stage but i couldn't find anything on it.
bottom line, i'll just leave it alone now because my ISP has decided to give me good speeds and no dropouts since November.

Good to hear @Ultrasnoop . Feel free to resurrect if you need help in the future.
