Topology question
Hi, So I have a WNDR3700 in my basement office next to the modem in one corner of the home. My home is wired with Cat6 to most rooms which is great for TV's, XBOX, my main PC and where reliability is...
Thanks for the speedy response.
In this case i'd need two wired runs to the place I locate the 3700 - internet feed and return to the switch correct ?
you got it! :)
In this case I think i'm limited to WEP not WPA2 ?
NO.. use can use WPA2
you are not repeating.. using ethernet cable to 2nd unit
I did just talk to Tech Support on phone and they said that the WN2000RPT could be connected to the wired existing network rather than connecting to the existing network wirelessly (not possible in my case due to poor signal) - i looked online at the user manual and it states that the ethernet ports are for connecting devices - not for use as a network source. Any comments?
I was going to suggest but you had CAT6 cables. with wn2000rpt, you MUST place closer to the router .
I would say install 2nd AP wired at remote area
