Hello.
I need some advice on setting up a wifi access point in my house. I have limited networking knowledge but understand basic terminology, so fairly plain English would really help, thanks. My house is cabled and I currently have an ethernet cable coming into a downstairs room that goes into my smart TV. It is on the wall and there are power sockets available. What I am after is some advice and hopefully a fairly basic (cheap) small solution to add a device to it that I can plug the ethernet cable into that would give me a wireless access point. I am currently using a TP link through the mains but it is patchy. Ideally it would have both an ethernet-out (to go into the TV) or would support me using a splitter so that one cable goes into the access point and the other goes into the TV. Any help and recommendations you give give me would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Jon
