okay. so, today the cable company came today and moved the modem into my room, top floor of the house. I need to be able to get the wifi signal to the lower floors. it's getting there but could be stronger.
so i look online to see about making the older router a bridge. lots of conflicting details in how-tos and videos, so i figure i'll reach out to my fellow paxers to get more credible info. any links or tips you can share would be appreciated.
also, initially i was under the impression i could set the old router to bridge mode, bring it to the dead zone of the house and just plug it into the electrical outlet. no rj45 wires connected, no separate $60 WAP device with it. is that possible or was i just mistaken?
thanks!
