Wifi repeater on an ap mode

Question

Can i connect a repeater to a linksys switch with an ethernet cable and get a wifi connection from it

some repeaters have access point mode. You'd have to look up your specific devices model and manual to find out if it has access point mode.&nbsp;

I sent a screen shot of a power line adapter that i want to buy online in the product description it's written ap mode and repeater mode, but when i asked the provider he told me that it doesn't work

so you've got a totolink repeater/extender and a linksys switch. Where does netgear fall in this?

I just wanted to know if it works or not (a repeater connect to a desktop switch) will it give me a wifi connection

plemans · Answer

You're literally on a netgear forum asking if a totolink device works with a linksys device?&nbsp;Maybe you'd be better to ask on the totolink forum what their devices work with?&nbsp;&nbsp;theoretically it should work if the totolink has AP mode and the device works as it *should*.But again, I don't have that device or that switch&nbsp;
