The mobile hotspot would likely be a Verizon Jetpack, for example. (A shame these don't have ethernet ports on them)
I wouldn't mind having this option potentially as an "emergency backup" during any outages. It's definitely one of those "bonus ideas."
What would it take?
Here is the setup:
Desktop PC 1 using Win 7 64 is connected via ethernet to the NETGEAR CM600 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem and NETGEAR Nighthawk AC1900 R7000 router.
Desktop PC 2 in another room is connected wirelessly via the NETGEAR AC1200 Wi-Fi USB Adapter
Downstairs is mother's beloved Roku that operates on wireless connected to the router. It helps her sleep. What can I say? (long story)
I've read up a bit and watched some videos and if I understand it correctly I would need to have a bridge added to this current setup for starters?
Where am I with this and what are my options? Thanks!
