Utterchaos Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 hi i have vermin superhub, but it is not powerfull to reach down to the office, so i thought i could run an eithernet cable down there and have the internet that way, thing is there are 3 things that are going to be used 2 are wifi and one can be wired, how can i make wifi work down there can i buy another wifi router and just plug the end of the eithernet into it or do i need to do something else cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 You could try a wireless access point maybe... Get a switch and fit it where you need it, run ethernet to that and plug in the WAP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snuffs99 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Just get a wireless wifi extender, place it at the edge of your wifi range, connect it to your wifi (usually WPS but can connect via the ethernet connection and sort via laptop etc) and it should extend it further....or if its all on the same mains get some mains extenders, either way both will have ethernet connection and wifi.

Hippie Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Yes you're right I'd probably go with homeplugs and a wireless access point with enough networking sockets to save yourself the bother of making up and laying the cable tbqh but I'm lazy like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daz2905 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 My house is 3 floors. I have both the ethernet plug and the range extender. They both work well. I have the range extender on the middle floor and it give a spot on signal for the whole house, the ethernet is what i bought first and i have a home cinema setup on the top floor and use the ethernet plug for kodi and for the other devices my wifi is still full strength so i connect through that. Both are tp link and cost about £25 each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
