I've got so much to think about now ... my thanks to all who

will run cable under the house instead of stringing it up on the
interior walls to those locations that will benefit - shop will have to
be run under ground in conduit or smurf tube - and wireless for the rest
. Unfortunately the Roku's don't have a wired option so they'll have to
remain on wifi . Again , my thanks to all for the help .

Out of curiosity, what sort of wireless router do you have? Repositioning it can often have a dramatic effect on the signal received by the devices. I set mine up on a shelf so I'd get the best coverage and I have a little key chain WiFi signal finder that indicates relative signal strength. I could also take my laptop around the house and get a good indication of signal strength. There is a 99 cent app from Amazon that loads into an Android phone. It's pretty cool because it has a colorful visual bargraph display and makes Geiger counter clicks as it detects a signal. ヽ(ヅ)ノ
