How to use PL1000v2 as a WiFi repeater
IS IT POSSIBLE TO USE THE POWERLINE WIFI PL1000V2 AS A WIFI REPEATER AND MOVE THROUGH THE HOUSE/YARD AND NOT HAVE TO SWITCH SSIDS AS I GET FURTHER AWAY FROM THE CENTRAL ROUTER?
You can set the PLW1000 to use the same network name as your main router.
You might find that you sometimes need to toggle your wifi on/off in your clients when you move into the PLW1000 coverage area - that depends on how aggressively the clients roam to a stronger network.

Thank-you!
