Scenario: House is 7k square feet and the internet comes comes in on one side of the house. There used to be a cable to the other side of the house but it was cut during heavy rennovations. Lots of concrete construction on this house, 2 stories with concrete between them, so 1 WiFi Router won't reach across the house, let alone good signal between floors.
Don't want to spend a ton of cash here. Considered Apple Airport Extreme Base Station with an Airport Express as the mid-way AP. Total cost is about $300, but was wondering if I can do something for $200 total. Needs to be new, off the shelf product.
Current router is a Linksys WRT160N. Doesn't seem like this model supports a WDS, So if there is some other linksys that would and be nicely compatible with the existing router, that could save even more $$
