Getting strong Wi-Fi coverage all throughout a house can be a difficult task, especially if you’ve got thick walls or multiple buildings, such as a detached garage. If you’re looking to extend your coverage, one of the first solutions you’re likely to come across is a Wi-Fi extender, but these aren’t always the best solution. For many, a mesh network will actually lead to a better overall experience. While Wi-Fi extenders can be cheaper, mesh systems are designed with expansion in mind and can deliver more consistent results around the home.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.
