Wifi entender with baby monitor
Hello,
I am not a tech savy guy and ned some advice on what to buy. Our wifi doesnt reach our babys room and I am looking at wifi extenders. My question is will this option work for video/sound etc being sent back to the main network or will it be on a seperate network and I wont get the info sent back to me? I am not sure if this is a one way signal option or two way...if this makes any since. Very much appreciate any advice. Thank you!
Hello BryanP
The extender would create a seperate wireless network but it would still be on the same network as the router it is connected to.

Hi BryanP,
All extenders are pass through device where it your baby monitor works with your Router's network, it'll work via extender too.

So I dont need to worry about the extender having a seperate IP (or something...not sure) that it wont communicate back to the main network IP? Thanks so much for your help!
