Hello beergut
Can you give more details about the issue you are having.

I thought I explained it in the question, I want to get advise as to what wifi router I can get to blue wire to the Optus router and position in an advantageous position central in the house to get better coverage in my split level home. The coverage has been pathetic and frustrating for years with inumerable conversations with Optus tech etc.....and no solution.
I really did not think it would be this difficult to solve. ie. going to a forum to try and solve it.
I appreciate any help or advise I may receive from any members of the forum who take the time to message me.
regards

- BeergutAspirantThe CG router has never been any good at my place and keeps dropping out in all areas.
My iMac keeps hooking up and dropping out. I have been trying to download the Garargeband library for over a month now. The wifi symbol occilates between "turn wifi off" and "searching for connections". It happens as soon as I turn the computer on and all my family has dropout problems all over the house.
I just want to try blue wiring another 3 Arial powerful router to the Optus one and see if that fixes it as optus can't suggest anything else. The upload and download tests are ok.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello Beergut
You could get a nighthawk router and run it in AP mode since you said the LAN connection works just fine and then just disable or hide the wifi network of the cg3000.
