Can I use my old netgear33 router with my HughesNet Gen5 as an adaptor to hook up a desk phone? Also, if I can, will this help my wifi calling on my cell phones? We live in a very remote area in th...
The problem isn't the router, its using satellite internet. Satellite internet has much higher latencies than cable/dsl/fibre.
So if you're wifi calling isn't working that well when connected to the hughesnet router, adding another router isn't going to help unless its an issue of distance from the router.
Have you checked into Starlink? much faster speeds and lower latency than hughesnet.
Yes, there is a waiting list for Starlink and the cost is more than we can afford right now. We're seniors and we live on a very fixed income. Had to put a new roof on so that's going to take us 5 years to pay off. I'm just trying to figure a way to make calls without losing them. đ and I had this old router that I thought might help the signal or something if I hooked up a phone to it.
