setting up a 2nd Ex6250
Hi, I need information on how to set up a 2nd extender to my system. In a double brick 2 story house & need to boost the wi-fi to the second story. Have searched but have been unable to find any inf...
You can do it but I wouldn't.
If you're daisy chaining extenders, you end up with high latency and low speeds.
Reason why is the single and dual band extenders have to use the same chip to go router----extender and then extender--devices. It drops throughput 50% because it can't do both at once. Add another extender and you're speeds are even less.
If you're needing a 2nd extender, I'd check into switching to a triband mesh (not extender) setup.
