Hey guys,
I need some advice on expanding the wireless coverage in the house.
The house is three floors, and wired for ethernet. I currently have an n router at the modem entry point that works wonders and distributes internet throughout the rest of the house.
But its wireless gets weak at the other end of the house. So I am looking for a new device there. I have ethernet, so I can plug in whatever new thing I get.
Should I get a new router and run it as a wap only? I saw the cisco 1200 for $20 on amazon and it fits the budget. I assume with it I will set up a new ssid network, and have two wireless networks covering the house.
Is there a mode or device that will extend the current wireless network and use the same ssid as the current one? As in two devices running one wireless network?
