How to exend my network over Ethernetcable (long distance 50m)
Hello, this might be a stupid question on how to, but everybody using repeaters where the wifi signal overlaps. In my case I have (an old R7000 Nighthawk). I want to buy a new one and use the R7000...
Repeater mode is only connected via wireless. AP mode, for R7000 or EAX, you have to use a ethernet connection to get them connected to work properly in AP Mode.

In addition, NG firmware doesn't support Repeater mode.
