WiFi bridging

Hi. I have a Netgear ac2000 WAC124 in an outdoor garden building, in bridge mode, connected to my main network (1Gb) hub. I get fantastic WiFi speeds in excess of 200Mbps in the garden building now. 
My house has good speeds also from my main hub except in one room, typically where I also need WiFi. Can I set up another bridge router in this room, connected to my main hub? I.e will 2 bridged routers work while connected to the same hub?

cheers.

  • It should work, with the caveat that your router can manage multiple bridge devices, which most most should.

    I suspect a mesh network, however, will be easier to manage and use though.
