Rulland Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Am I right in thinking that the AP requires a wired connection to the main router?, is this different to a repeater?, learning curve for moi, never really delved into it tbh. Quote

Â Â Thats how ive done mine, so either hw, or powerline adaptors. Â I'm no expert, but like messing about with stuff like this if i have a spare hour or so, like wise with reading up on things. It all helps........ Quote
goncall Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 I think he was referring to your abode Its hard to latch on to his humour,tho i can get my wifi across the road which is a good 25m away from where the router is its a new one with the 2 bands on what ever they do Quote
Rulland Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 Thanks 9651, I've heard that using a repeater halves the wireless speed, again, I don't know the truth or significance tbh, I would like to get better wireless coverage in my garden, I see conflicting reports about methods used. Quote
