Extending 2.4 ghz network to backyard
I recently purchased an RBK852 system for my new home and so far performance has been great. The only issue I currently have is the router/satellites reaching two wifi plugs in the corner of my back...
Yes that could be used as a wired AP. I would have it's own SSID name and need to be on a far separated channel on 2.4Ghz. AE on channel 1 and RBR on channel 11.
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried this earlier today, but the orbi router is actually able to provide a better signal than my AE wired up and sitting just outside my backdoor. Are there any other products that I could use to extend my wifi range aside from another satellite? I'd prefer wireless if possible.
Not at the moment. RBS50Y outdoors RBS would be an option sometime down the road if and when NG decides to make that compatible with Orbi AX. No idea if or when that will happen.
