Add AP to wndr3400v3
Hello, I currently have a netgear wndr3400v3 installed in our house and has been working great. We are planning to run cat6 to our barn approximately 300ft away from our house and would like to add...
The Wndr3400 is an older router. Version 1 was made in 2010 thats a dual band wireless N device.
I'd actually look at upgrading the primary router and using the wndr3400 as the access point.
Not sure what you pay for for speeds (or what you get) but its worth checking into
Thank you for the reply and recommendation. Would you recommend a specific model router for primary? We live out in the country and only get about 25mbps down, which is adequate for our needs right now.
If you had faster service I'd recommend the R7800. but at 25mbps, I'd probably just recommend a basic gigabit router like the R6400 (or around that series).
I'd recommend gigabit in case you ever did get upgraded to faster speeds. That way the wired connection isn't the limiting factor.
